Important: Make sure to plan and test your access control setup in advance so everything runs smoothly on event day. If you need support, reach out early enough—last-minute help outside office hours won’t be possible for equipment that was sent by Smeetz several days before.

Rented equipment is set up by Smeetz, especially when using the Android App. If you need assistance upon reception of your scanner with the Android app, please reach out to your Account Manager. WebApp scanning is in self-service. Any question regarding equipment delivery can be addressed to your account manager.
