Software for trade shows and exhibitions

More visitors at the booths, no queues at the entrance

Ticket sales for the public and free registration for trade visitors, a portal where exhibitors manage their booth staff and client invitations themselves, badges printed on arrival, zone control and per-day statistics. Inviton brings visitors, exhibitors and the organiser into one system.

Problem

A trade show lives off its exhibitors. And they live off visitors at the booth.

The organiser deals with entry and registration, exhibitors want leads and clients. Without one system, both sides lose time and money.

Queues in the first hours

The biggest rush is right after the doors open. Paper lists and manual lookups turn it into a queue outside the hall.

Exhibitors in e-mails

Booth staff lists, parking cards and client invitations are handled through dozens of e-mails and spreadsheets.

Invitations without tracking

An exhibitor hands out free tickets, but nobody knows how many actually came or who brought them.

Badges printed in advance

Hundreds of pre-printed badges, half stay in the box and walk-ins have to wait.

Trade day and public day through one entrance

Trade visitors, exhibitors, VIPs and media have different rights, but the check at the door is only visual.

No data for exhibitors

After the show you can estimate attendance, but you cannot show exhibitors what their participation brought them.

How organisers of an expo and multi-day events handled registration, accreditation and entry.

Career EXPO – Profesia Days

Visitor registration, VIP zone and QR-based catering

Problem

The organiser needed to handle public visitor registration, accreditation of VIP guests and exhibitors, fast entry control, VIP zone access for authorised people only, and food and coffee only for those entitled to it.

Solution

Online registration on the client's website with a QR-code ticket in their design. VIP guests and exhibitors were accredited on site via tablets with the Inviton Promoter app, and a badge with a QR code was printed on arrival. QR scanners controlled entry, the VIP zone and the issue of lunches and coffee.

Multi-day event – ITAPA

Single-day and multi-day passes checked per day

Problem

The list of registered participants lived in Excel with name, company and pass type. Single-day and multi-day passes had to be distinguished, participants checked in quickly on site, and the organiser needed to know who came on which day.

Solution

Participants were imported from Excel, hostesses looked them up in the Inviton Promoter app and printed a personalised badge with a QR code. The app showed the lanyard colour by pass type, the scan verified a valid pass for the given day, and more guests could be added during the event.

Reference

Inviton helped us cover communication and participant flow in one place. The app with the programme and speaker questions, registration and badge printing all worked reliably. The on-site support was very pleasant too.

FAQ

Questions about trade show software

Can exhibitors register their booth staff themselves?
Yes. In the partner portal you set how many people each exhibitor may add and leave the rest to them. You see everything in one list, with no e-mails.
How do exhibitor invitations for their clients work?
Every exhibitor gets their own invitation code or link. Their clients register for free or with a discount, and you see how many visitors each exhibitor brought.
Can we combine paid tickets for the public with free registration for trade visitors?
Yes. Each ticket type has its own price, validity by day and rights, for example a trade day only for registered trade visitors and exhibitors.
Are badges printed only on arrival?
Yes. Staff look up the name in the Inviton Promoter app, confirm arrival and a badge with a QR code prints immediately. Nothing is printed in advance.
Can we control entry to the VIP or B2B zone and meals for exhibitors?
Yes. The same QR code on the badge or ticket is scanned at the entrance, at zones and when handing out lunches and coffee. The system only admits those entitled and records every pick-up.
Does check-in work if the Wi-Fi in the hall drops?
Yes. Scanning works offline and the data syncs once the connection is restored.
What data do we get after the show?
Attendance by ticket type and by day, visitors from each exhibitor’s invitations, registration trends over time and an attendee export with arrival date and time.
