# How to check in guests on event day

> Scan guests in and print their badges at the door using Reg Plus on event day.

**In short:** On event day you check guests in from the **Operations → On Ground** area. Each check-in marks the guest as arrived, and staff can even register walk-ins on the spot.

## Turn on On Ground

Go to **Operations → On Ground** and switch the **OnGround Module** on. This activates on-ground check-in, zones and the walk-in registration form.

## Check a guest in

**1. Open the check-in app**

Use the On Ground check-in app on your phone or tablet at the door.

**2. Find the guest**

Scan the QR code on the guest's ticket or M-Badge, or search for them by name, email or phone.

**3. Check them in**

Confirm the guest to mark them as checked in. Your **Checked in today** and **Scans** counts update live.

## Register walk-ins

Turn on **Walk-in registration** so staff can register and charge new guests right at the venue from the check-in app — handy for people who didn't sign up in advance.

> [!TIP]
>
> Set up your badge templates under **Operations → Badges** before the event so badges are ready to print at check-in. Check-in and badge numbers also show in **Insight → Attendee Dynamics**.
