You can print attendee and speaker badges for your event. The QR codes on the badges can be scanned by the event organizer, or by other attendees wishing to create contact lists between themselves.

Introduction

Grenadine lets you print badges for your attendees, speakers, and anyone else who needs one at your event. Grenadine supports a variety of badge formats from different manufacturers. The most common badge size is an Avery 5392 Nametag Insert Refill which measures 3” x 4”.

Printing a badge within Grenadine Event Management Software does not require any special kind of printer. Our system generates a PDF which you can easily send to any printer.

Decide What Gets Printed On The Badge

You can include the following elements on your badges:

  • The event name
  • The event logo
  • Cut marks (thin lines that help you determine where the label boundaries are)
  • The attendee or person’s name (this information is the only mandatory information on the badge)
  • The person’s organization or company
  • The person’s title
  • The city where the person is from
  • The country where the person is from
  • A professional photo of the person
  • The ticket type(s) for the person
  • The categories for the person (i.e. the categories that you have set on this person’s profile)
  • The person’s registration number
  • A scannable QR code (can be scanned by the event organizer using the check-in app, or by another attendee using the attendee mobile app)

Here’s an example of what a badge may look like:
