Optional visitor checkout

Know when a visit ends—not only when it starts

Common questions

Digital visitor log FAQ

Is a digital visitor log easier to search?

Yes. A digital list removes the need to scan handwritten pages and makes repeat visits easier to associate with the right guest.

Do I need kiosk hardware?

No. Use a compatible phone or tablet you already own and choose the stand or placement that fits your space.

Can I keep using my current tools?

Yes. CSV export includes checkout time, latest status, and duration alongside the guest list for common spreadsheet and contact workflows.

Can the log show when a visitor leaves?

Yes. Enable optional checkout and choose a time window. A returning visitor can enter the same email or phone to close their open visit without repeating the full form.

Is this meant for regulated facilities?

MemberMaker is intended for straightforward guest and attendance tracking, not identity screening or regulatory compliance programs.
