Badge printing that keeps pace with the queue.
Conference badges and name badges from your registration list: one template per attendee type, batch runs the night before, on-demand printing at the desk or a kiosk on show morning. Your printers, your stock, A$0 a badge.
- No per-badge fee. the platform prints to the label printers you already own, on your stock, at A$0 a badge and A$0 a device.
- Every name is already there. badges print from the registration list, so the person who bought last night and the ticket forwarded this morning both come out right.
- Batch or on demand. print the pre-registered thousands the night before, then print arrivals in about four seconds each at the desk or a kiosk.

Design it once. Print it three thousand times.
Per-type templates
Attendee, exhibitor, speaker, media: each ticket type has its own template and colour band, so access reads from three metres away. Your wordmark, your accent colour, an optional footer line.
Batch runs
Five scopes: unprinted, everyone, one type, exhibitor passes, or arrived without a badge. Runs come out in print documents of 200, and every printed ticket is stamped so nothing prints twice.
On demand at the door
Scan the ticket and the badge prints beside the scan. A walk-up sale on tap to pay mints the ticket and prints the badge in one motion.
Kiosk self-badging
A tablet on a stand with a printer beside it. Attendees scan their own wallet ticket and collect their badge; your staffed desk handles exceptions, not the crowd.
Name badge printing
The 62mm roll label for name badges at the desk, or the A6 conference badge on card stock, from the same list, on the same run.
An audit trail
Every print and reprint is stamped with who ran it and when. A lost badge is a ten-second reprint; a duplicated badge is impossible to miss.

Printers and badge stock are yours; the platform prints to them. Built-in setup guides cover the Brother QL family and Zebra direct thermal printers.
From registration list to lanyard.
- Step 1
Pick your templates
One badge template per ticket type, in your colours, with your wordmark. A test print from the designer checks alignment before you commit a roll of stock.
- Step 2
Pair the printers
A label printer per desk: the Brother 62mm roll for name badges, or Zebra A6 card for conference badges. Ten minutes, once, with the built-in guides.
- Step 3
Run the night-before batch
Print the pre-registered badges in one job, in documents of 200. Every printed ticket is stamped, so the desk knows who already holds one.
- Step 4
Print the rest as they arrive
Desk or kiosk, scan to print in about four seconds. The arrived queue shows who has checked in and is still waiting on a badge.
One template per attendee type, in your colours.
Attendee, exhibitor, speaker, media: each ticket type carries its own badge template. The colour band across the top tells your door team who they are looking at from three metres away. Set the accent colour, drop in your event wordmark, add a footer line, and every badge for that type prints the same way for the whole show.
- The QR on the badge is the same verified pass the scanner reads, so the badge is also the ticket
- Names print from the registration list, including the names collected on forwarded tickets
- Exhibitor badges carry the booth allocation, so directions are printed on the person
- A test print from the designer checks alignment before you commit a roll of stock

Batch print run
A6 · Zebra ZD421Every printed ticket is stamped, so the desk sees who already holds a badge.
Three thousand badges is one job, not one evening.
Pick a scope, run it, hand the stack to the desk. A run comes out in print documents of 200 badges each, so a big show is a series of clean files instead of one enormous one. Every ticket in the run is stamped as printed the moment its page renders. The morning queue then shows the only list that matters at 9 am: who has arrived and is still waiting on a badge.
- Five scopes: unprinted, everyone, one ticket type, exhibitor passes, or arrived without a badge
- Re-running a scope skips what is already printed instead of doubling your stock bill
- Exhibitor staff passes batch alongside attendee badges, each on its own template
- Print from any laptop at the venue; the run opens as a document your browser prints
Four ways a badge reaches a hand at the door.
On demand at the desk
Scan the ticket, the badge prints beside the scan, hand it over. About four seconds a person, which is why the desk keeps pace with the queue instead of building one.
Kiosk self-badging
A tablet on a stand with a printer beside it. The attendee scans their own wallet ticket, their badge prints in front of them, and your staffed desk handles the exceptions instead of the crowd.
Reprints, with a record
A lost badge is a ten-second reprint at any desk. Every print and reprint is stamped with who ran it and when, so a badge can never quietly multiply.
Walk-ups included
A door sale on tap to pay mints the ticket and prints the badge in the same motion. The walk-up leaves the desk holding the same badge as the pre-registered thousand.
Your printers, your badge stock, A$0 a badge.
There is no proprietary hardware and no per-badge fee. The platform prints to the label printers events already own, with built-in setup guides for the two families that cover nearly every desk, and a test print to check alignment before the run.
| Printer family | Badge stock | Where it suits |
|---|---|---|
| Brother QL-820NWB / QL-1110NWB | 62mm continuous label roll, black on white | The common desk label printer: name badges at the desk and the kiosk |
| Zebra ZD421 / ZD621 | A6 card at 4 x 6 inches, direct thermal | The conference badge: colour-banded card stock with the full template |
Another printer already on your desk usually works too: any printer that takes the 62mm roll or A6 stock prints the same documents.

Badge printing on Exhibitio
What does event badge printing cost?
A$0 a badge, A$0 a device and A$0 a print run. Badge printing is part of every Exhibitio event; you supply the printer and the badge stock, and the platform prints to them. The only Exhibitio fees are the flat per-sale fees on tickets, booths and sponsorships.
Which badge printers are supported?
Built-in setup guides cover the Brother QL family (QL-820NWB and QL-1110NWB on the 62mm continuous roll) and Zebra direct thermal printers (ZD421 and ZD621 on A6, 4 x 6 inch stock). Any printer that takes the same stock prints the same documents.
Can I print conference badges in advance?
Yes. A batch run prints any scope you choose the night before: everyone, only the unprinted, one ticket type, or exhibitor passes. Runs come out in print documents of 200 badges, and each printed ticket is stamped so a re-run never doubles your stock.
How fast is on-demand badge printing at the door?
About four seconds from scan to printed badge. The scan checks the ticket in, the badge prints beside the scanner, and the queue keeps moving. A busy gate adds a kiosk or two so attendees badge themselves.
Do name badges pull from the registration list automatically?
Yes. Badges print from the live registration list, including names collected on forwarded tickets, so the person actually attending is the name on the lanyard. There is no spreadsheet export and re-import step.
Can attendees print their own badge at a kiosk?
Yes. A tablet on a stand with a printer beside it runs kiosk mode: the attendee scans the QR from their wallet or email, their badge prints in front of them, and the staffed desk stays free for exceptions.
What happens when someone loses a badge?
Any desk reprints it in about ten seconds. Every print and reprint is stamped with who ran it and when, and reprints are visible at the desk, so a lost badge is an errand rather than a security question.
Do exhibitor and speaker badges work differently?
Each type carries its own template, so exhibitor badges show the booth allocation and their colour band, and speaker and media badges read differently at a glance. Exhibitor staff passes redeem once each at the desk, capped at what the booth includes.
Badges designed once, printed three thousand times, at A$0 each.
Part of every Exhibitio event, with the check-in app the badges print from.
