The Importance of Event Check-In

The check-in process is the first tangible interaction donors have with your event, making it a critical component of the overall attendee experience. A seamless check-in sets the stage for a positive event atmosphere, creating a lasting impression on donors. On the flip side, a cumbersome or inefficient check-in can hinder engagement, leaving attendees frustrated and less likely to participate fully.

Stats on Donor Engagement with Bad Check-In Experiences

According to recent studies, events with poor check-in experiences witness a significant drop in donor engagement. Events that grapple with long lines, outdated processes, or technical glitches during check-in report lower attendance rates and decreased satisfaction levels among attendees. In fact, 71% of event professionals believe that long waiting times are a major pain point for attendees during the event check-in process (Shced, 2023).
