Start on time

Make arrival easier for participants and instructors

A self-service attendance point keeps the instructor out of the paperwork and gives the organizer a cleaner record.

A roster can slow down the start

Searching names and marking paper attendance creates a line while the instructor is trying to prepare the room.

Walk-ins need a clean way to join

New participants can enter their own contact details without squeezing another name into a printed list.

Follow-up depends on readable records

Digital entry removes handwriting from the path between attendance and the next workshop invitation.

The session-day flow

One check-in process for walk-ins and regular participants

Everyone follows the same screens, while MemberMaker connects another visit when a participant returns.

  1. Prepare the workshop recordChoose the organization or program and run one test check-in before participants arrive.
  2. Let participants sign inPlace the device near materials or the classroom entrance and use one instruction for everyone.
  3. Review first-time and repeat attendanceUse visit history and CSV export after the session instead of transcribing a roster.
