Check in to a facility

Vendors can check in at a facility by scanning their hard badge at a kiosk or using the mobile app. 

The mobile app has three options for checking in: Show Badge, GPS Check In, Scan Kiosk Code. Mobile GPS Check In allows vendors to find nearby facility zones and check in on their device without needing to visit a physical kiosk.

Individual facilities choose which check in methods they would like vendors to use at their facility.

Note To use mobile GPS Check In, you need to make sure location services are enabled on your mobile device.
