AUTHOR: The Hopin Events team

We have several new product updates to share with you so let’s jump right in.

New features to help you run seamless hybrid events

Kiosk designer

Transform the kiosks into a branded, self-serve check-in interface. Add multiple kiosk stations for different ticket types and customize the welcome and thank you screens. Attendees gain the ability to access self-serve check-in and badge printing.

Badge designer

Create, configure, and design branded badges and templates for your hybrid event. Develop new badges by ticket type and edit elements like logo, profile image, QR code, and other custom information.

Kiosk self-serve check-in

Turn your devices into self-serve kiosks.

Badge printing

Connect the Organizer App to printers to provide on-demand badge printing at your in-person venue.

Segment check-in

Easily scan attendees in and out of segments to better track in-person attendance rate.

Lead retrieval for exhibitors

Give exhibitors the ability to scan badges to connect with leads and build their community. Exhibitors can gather, organize, prioritize, and export leads so their teams can take action.

Lead retrieval credit assignment

This credit assignment system allows organizers to purchase and assign lead retrieval credits to exhibitors. (Note: Lead collection will continue to be free for virtual events.)

All of these features are now available on our Business and Enterprise plans.

In the coming months we’ll continue to share more robust features to help you simplify and expand your hybrid experiences. We’ll also bring our standalone in-person events capabilities to the Hopin platform later this year. So, stay tuned!
