What is Event Check-In Software?
Event check-in software helps organizers verify tickets and admit guests without relying on printed lists or disconnected systems. Sellout turns compatible mobile devices into event ticket scanners while connecting check-in directly to the ticket information already in your account.
When the unexpected happens, your team can move quickly. When something unexpected comes up, you have more ways to solve it without stopping the line.

Full Event Check-In & Scanning Platform
Check Guests In Faster
Our event check-in platform gives your staff easy ways to confirm admission and keep lines flowing smoothly.
Mobile Scanning
Use a compatible phone as an event ticket scanner. Your team can open additional check-in points without building the door around bulky equipment.
QR Ticketing
Digital QR tickets give staff a quick way to verify admission while making tickets easy for guests to carry on the device they already have.
Digital Will Call
When a guest can’t find their ticket, staff can search your digital will-call list instead of sending them away to hunt through emails.
Ticket Wallets
Give ticket buyers one place to find their Sellout orders before they reach the front of the line. Easier access for guests means fewer avoidable delays for your staff.
Group Tickets
When tickets are purchased together, Sellout can simplify how the group gets checked in. Your staff spends less time sorting through individual transactions while the party gets inside faster.
Ticket Sharing
Buyers can send tickets to the people who will actually use them before event day. That gives each attendee easier access to their own ticket and helps organizers build a more complete picture of who is attending.
Turn Walk-Ups Into Ticket Buyers on the Spot
Advance sales may end before the doors open, but ticket sales don’t have to. Sellout keeps your box office connected to your ticketing platform, so your team can handle last-minute buyers without sending them to another system or creating a separate event-day process.
Mobile Box Office
Sell available tickets directly through Sellout from an event-day device. Your staff can help a walk-up buyer complete the sale while they’re already standing at the door.
Tap to Pay
Accept eligible onsite payments using a compatible mobile device. Your team can handle the transaction without adding another piece of payment hardware to the setup.
Connected Inventory
Door sales stay connected to your event inventory. Your staff can work from the same ticket information used for advance sales instead of reconciling separate systems later.
Give Staff Role-Specific Control & Access
The people working the door need enough access to solve problems quickly. They don’t necessarily need access to everything else in your event account. Sellout helps you prepare staff for check-in while keeping event management where it belongs.
Staff Permissions
Control who can handle check-in and adjust access as event-day responsibilities change. Staff get the functionality they need without unnecessarily opening up the rest of your account.
Flexible Devices
Use compatible mobile devices for everyday scanning needs. Your team can add another check-in point when the crowd grows without completely changing the setup.
Dedicated Hardware
For events that need more processing power or designated staff devices, dedicated hardware options give teams another way to build the right entry setup.
Setup Help
Plan your check-in process before guests arrive. Sellout can help you think through devices, staff access, and the workflow your team will use at the door.
Real Human Support
Event-day questions rarely happen at a convenient time. When something needs attention, Sellout gives you access to real people who understand the ticketing platform and the pressure of live events.
