Event night

Door sales and QR check-in

Your door crew needs a phone, not rented hardware and a separate contract.

Verimly POS runs on any phone or tablet your crew already carries, and on a desktop for a fixed box office. It sells last-minute tickets at the door and scans QR tickets for entry, catching duplicates the moment they are presented. Every sale and scan syncs to the same dashboard as your online sales, so the numbers on event night are the real numbers.

What you are looking at

The numbers on the screen above mark the parts that do the work. Here is what each one is.

Part 1: One large, unmistakable result

Accepted or refused fills the screen, in colour and in words. At a dark entrance with a queue behind you, a small green tick is not a result.

Part 2: Who it is, and where they sit

The holder's name, ticket type and seat come back with the scan, so a question about row F is answered without leaving the scanner.

Part 3: Duplicates caught in the moment

A ticket is marked used the instant it scans. The same QR code presented again fails visibly, while the person is still in front of you and something can be done about it.

Part 4: The recent-scan list

The last few scans stay on screen. When a group arrives together and one is wrong, you can see what just happened rather than guessing.

Part 5: Manual entry, for the phone that died

Type the code by hand when a screen is broken, a battery is flat or the camera cannot focus. It resolves exactly the same way as a scan.

In practice

One tool for selling and scanning

Most setups treat the box office and the entrance as two systems that meet in a spreadsheet the next morning. On Verimly they are the same app on the same device: take a walk-up sale, then scan the next person through, without switching context or waiting for anything to reconcile.

  • A door sale removes the ticket from the storefront in the same moment, so the last ten tickets cannot be sold twice.
  • Add-ons and merchandise ride along in the same cart and the same payout.

Built for the conditions it is used in

Event night means low light, gloves, fast hands and venue wifi that comes and goes. The POS interface is sized for that: large targets, high contrast, results you can read at arm's length, and no flow that depends on a perfect connection to complete a scan.

  • The scan result is the whole screen, not a toast that disappears before you look up.
  • The next scan is always one tap away — the app returns to ready without asking.

A device is paired, a person signs in

Pairing is done once per device from the workspace, and it is what gives that phone the right to sell for your events. After that, each member of the crew signs in with their own PIN, so a shift change is four digits rather than a password on a shared account.

  • Pairings can be revoked from the workspace when a device is lost or a season ends.
  • Sessions are per person, so takings and scans can be traced back to a shift.

Roles, so the right people see the right things

Door staff get selling and scanning. They do not get payouts, workspace settings or the customer list — the things an owner needs and a volunteer on the door does not. The permissions are set once per member and apply on every device they sign in to.

The buyer can watch the sale

On a fixed box office, a second display mirrors the cart: tickets, extras, seat choices and the running total, updating as the operator works. The buyer confirms what they are paying for before they pay for it, which is the cheapest way to prevent a dispute.

Questions, answered

Do I need to buy or rent special hardware?

No. Verimly POS runs on phones and tablets your team already has, and there is a desktop app for a fixed box office. There is nothing to rent and no per-device charge.

Can several people scan at once?

Yes. Pair as many devices as you need. They all read and write the same live availability, so two lanes never sell the same seat or admit the same ticket twice.

Does a door sale count towards my online availability?

Yes. Door and online sales share one pool. Selling the last ten tickets at the entrance removes them from the storefront immediately.

What does a door sale cost?

The same as any other paid ticket: 1.95% + €0.29, plus payment processing at the provider's published rate.

What stops a screenshot being passed around?

The first scan marks the ticket used. Every scan after that fails, visibly and immediately, so the person holding the copy is the one standing in front of your door staff.

Can door staff see my revenue?

Only if you give them that permission. The default for a door role is selling and scanning, with payouts, settings and customer records left out.
