Why rely on sponsors to update their guest lists?
Your generous sponsors might be ready to buy that table for 10 or 20. But providing a list of names, email addresses, and phone numbers for those guests? Don’t count on it.
In the past, event managers had two choices: badger their beloved sponsors for names or slow down check-in and register guests at the door. Handbid’s AirCodes give you a third – and better – option.
Every sponsored guest receives an AirCode in the form of a QR code or NFC tag. They register themselves using the Handbid app, so nobody else has to!
AirCodes are the solution to a complete guest list
Testimonials
These Handbid clients never begin an event with offline or incomplete guest lists
"Our fundraising increased by more than seven times with Handbid.
When we used paper bid sheets our auction raised $3,000. When we started using Handbid, our auction raised over $23,000."
- Liz Scull
Here’s how Aircodes works in Handbid
Generate AirCodes as QR Codes or NFC tags within a Handbid event
Register AirCodes against a purchased sponsorship
Print AirCodes on badges or wristbands or distribute electronically
Distribute AirCodes to sponsors before the event
Sponsors can distribute the badges, wristbands, or codes to their guests
Guests use the Handbid app to register themselves using the AirCode
Guest registration registers each guest as a bidder and completes their guest information
Event managers can view the real-time status of guest registration
Now you can automate check-in for every sponsored guest
AirCodes are the best way to create a simple, automated, check-in experience for everyone. Nobody will need to wait while you check in sponsored guests!
When guests register their code in the Handbid app, you can be 100% positive their information is accurate and complete. Upon arriving, guests simply scan their AirCode. After that, Handbid informs the guest whether they are properly registered.
Fact: Your guests prefer to enter their own information and love the automated experience. AirCodes also get them to the auction area a whole lot faster!
