Gate Validation

What Happens at the Gate

The entire validation loop — attendee scans, staff confirms, pass burns — takes under 2 seconds.

01

Attendee opens pass on phone

The QR code lives in their email, wallet, or a link — they tap to open it on any smartphone browser. No app, no login.

02

Staff scans from their own phone

The gate staff points their phone camera at the QR code. QRTRAC opens the validation screen automatically in their browser.

03

Staff enters event password

A short event-specific password confirms staff authority. Prevents random passers-by from validating passes.

04

Result: GREEN or RED — instant

VALID → pass burns in under 100ms. USED → blocked globally. NOT IN SCHEDULE → early scan, pass preserved.

Event Passes — Common Questions

What is a QR event pass?
A QR event pass is a digital ticket that contains a unique QR code tied to a specific attendee. When scanned by gate staff, QRTRAC validates the pass server-side and either approves entry or blocks it. Unlike a paper ticket, the pass can be burned after first use so it cannot be shared or duplicated.
Can attendees share their pass with someone else?
No — once the first scan happens, QRTRAC marks the pass as Used on its servers. Any subsequent scan of the same code, on any device anywhere in the world, returns 'Pass Already Used' and blocks entry. Screenshots, forwards, and printed copies all fail.
Do attendees need to download an app?
No app required on either side. Attendees simply open a link (from email or SMS) on their phone browser. Gate staff validate by opening the scan URL in their browser and entering the event password — no dedicated scanner hardware needed.
How do I generate passes for hundreds of attendees?
Upload your attendee list as a CSV. QRTRAC generates a unique one-time QR for every row and makes them available for download or email delivery. Bulk generation of 1,000 passes takes under 60 seconds.
Can I create different pass tiers (VIP, General, Staff)?
Yes. You can create multiple pass types within one event, each with its own design, scan rules, and access zones. VIP passes can allow re-entry; staff passes can be multi-scan; general admission burns on first use.
What happens if an attendee loses their pass link?
You can resend the pass link from your QRTRAC dashboard at any time. As long as the original pass hasn't been scanned and used, the attendee can still use the resent link to enter.

QR Code Generator FAQ

Can I use my own brand domain for QR codes?
Yes! QRTRAC allows you to use your own custom brand domain (e.g., qr.yourbrand.com) in QR codes. This increases trust and brand recognition. The custom domain feature is available on Business Plus and higher plans. Once connected, it takes about 30 minutes to start showing your custom URL.
Can I migrate my QR codes from another platform to QRTRAC?
Yes! If you are using your own custom domain on your current platform, migration is a straightforward DNS change. If you're using a vendor's domain, you'll need to set up a new custom domain and create new QR codes. We offer full support to help you migrate your campaigns seamlessly.
Is it possible to convert a static QR code to a dynamic one?
No. Static QR codes have the destination URL hardcoded into the pattern, while dynamic QR codes use a redirect. You would need to generate a new dynamic QR code to enable tracking and editing features.
Can I edit my QR code?
Dynamic QR codes can be edited at any time, but static QR codes cannot be edited once generated.
Can I track where my QR code was scanned from?
Yes, dynamic QR codes are trackable, and analytics provide geolocation and anonymized IP-based location data.
