Digital badge
Expoplatform currently supports 2 types of badges - Barcode based and QR based.
External QR or barcode comes into to picture when the registration is happening outside ExpoPlatform and organizers want to use the badge from the 3rd party platform on to ExpoPlatform.
In such an event, the visitor details tagged to a particular badge on the 3rd party platform is passed to ExpoPlatform in the respective field via external_barcode or external_qr code. The badges on EP are configured using these values. Now, as these values exist in the ExpoPlatform database attached to a record, these values are recognized by EP mobile application and can be used for scanning and lead generation.
Please note that the only customization option available for our digital badge is the choice of color. Any other alterations or modifications beyond color variations are not currently possible.
