Sample event. Not real data.

The kiosk is a public page. Golfers type the email they signed up with and they are checked in. No login, and it shows no money.

Who can do this: Admin or Editor sets it up; golfers use it. You will need: a tablet or phone with signal, or a printed QR code.

Before you start

  • Each golfer needs an email on their sign-up. Golfers you added without an email cannot use the kiosk; check them in on Check-in.
  • Keep a volunteer nearby for golfers who cannot find their email.

Set it up

  1. Open Check-in. The Self-check-in kiosk card shows a QR code and the kiosk link.
  2. Choose one:
    • Tablet at the desk: open the kiosk link on the tablet and leave it on that page.
    • Printed QR: print the QR (right-click or press and hold it to save the picture) and tape it to the table. Golfers scan it with their own phone.

What golfers do

  1. Type the email they signed up with in Your email.
  2. Tap Check in. They see You're checked in! and their name.
  3. If teammates are not checked in yet, a button offers Check in my whole team with the number left.
  4. Check in another golfer clears the screen for the next person.

Which golfer gets checked in

  • If the email belongs to a golfer, that golfer is checked in.
  • If it is the email of the person who signed the team up, that person is checked in, and the team button offers the rest.

What happens next

Kiosk check-ins show on your Check-in page and the Overview count, the same as ones you do yourself. Reload Check-in to see them.
