Quick Scan
Quick Scan is used to scan tickets without having to manually process the ticket. This way the seller sees a list of scanned tickets with an indicator whether the ticket was scanned offline (one tick) or the scan was synchronised with the server (two ticks).
On the Scan page in Standard Scan mode, press the three-lined button with a tick in the top right corner of the page.
Scan a ticket.
Scanned tickets in Quick Scan mode appear in a list. If you press the ticket's number, you can see the same details as during normal scan mode.
The ticket is redeemed or scanned for entry automatically.
When a ticket cannot be redeemed or scanned, an error message explaining the reason will appear onscreen.
Return to Standard Scan mode by pressing the QR code icon in the top right corner of the page.
