Signing in to the scanner
There are two ways to sign in to the scanner, depending on whether staff use their own account or a shared door device.
1. Sign in with your account
Team members who already have a Cleartix login can sign in with their account email and password. This is the right choice when each staff member uses their own phone.
2. Sign in with a scanner PIN
For a dedicated, shared check-in device, use a 4-digit scanner PIN instead. The PIN lets door staff start scanning without giving them access to your full dashboard — ideal for a tablet that several people share at the entrance.
A scanner session stays valid for 24 hours, so a device signed in before the event keeps working through the day without re-entering credentials.
Give staff the right role
Door staff should have the scanner role, which is check-in only — they can scan and check visitors in, but can't see orders, payouts or settings. Add and assign roles under your team settings; see Team & roles.
Note: Treat the scanner PIN like a door key. If a shared device is lost or a temporary helper leaves, change the PIN so old sessions can't be reused.
Once you're signed in, you're ready to scan — see Scanning and check-in.
