The desktop kiosk takes its settings and badge designs from your event in the admin panel. Before you log in on the laptop, save Kiosk Setup and create at least one badge template. Do this even for a check-in only kiosk.

The kiosk picks a badge for each attendee from their main (first) user group. If no template matches that group, it uses your default template. For design steps, see How to Design and Print Attendee Badges on Eventify and How to Assign Different Badges to Different User Groups.

The full walkthrough of this window is in How to Set Up Kiosk Mode on Eventify. The table shows what each option does on the desktop kiosk.
A few options in Kiosk Setup apply only to the mobile app kiosk: Enable Rear Camera, Print Window Timeout (in seconds), the search-by-fields option and Badge Print After Registration. The desktop kiosk searches by name or email.
If your event requires a profile photo, the desktop kiosk asks attendees without one to take a photo with the webcam before their badge prints. See How to Manage Reprints, Passcodes, Photos and Edits on the Desktop Kiosk.
The kiosk reads Kiosk Setup and your badge templates when you choose the event, and again when you sync. After you change a setting or a badge design, click Sync on the kiosk and choose Templates & Settings Only. See How to Download Attendees and Sync the Desktop Kiosk.
Do I need a badge template if I'm only checking people in?
Yes. Create at least one template, even for a check-in only kiosk. The kiosk downloads templates when it syncs.
Which QR codes can the kiosk scan?
The attendee's Eventify QR code, from their badge, email or the Eventify app. It also accepts an external QR code that you imported for the attendee, such as one from another ticketing system. See How to Configure QR Code, Badge, and Scanning Settings in Eventify.
