Expo Pass 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

I greatly appreciate the seamless attendee experience we're able to offer our reunion attendees when we use Expo Pass. From offering print-on-demand name badges, to the individualized QR codes per registrant, to the easy session scanning and tracking, the whole system works for us.

One of the only areas for improvement for our business use is to realize better system integration. We just recently transitioned to Salesforce, but all integrations above and beyond our minimum viable product is at least two years away. I can't wait for the day that marking a registrant as having attended in Expo Pass means they'll automatically be marked as having attended in our Salesforce database, as well!

Printing quality is great, the ipads and online portal are easy to use too. If you're looking for a onsite badging solution that helps avoid pre-printing madness and looks more polished than your in-house printer could be, I highly recommend trying them.

I will note - if you have any attendees that like to have a long night out and get into mischief, they may need a badge reprint if you're using their reinforced paper stock (this was the exception though, not the rule!).

The app and registration interface is beautiful. Printing badges is pretty quick and also aesthetically pleasing.

There are several aspects of ExpoPass that needs to be corrected for Conference with 1000 or more attendees, CEU tracks, group registration needs, or multiple sessions offered simultaneously. I've delineated the issues below: 1. Registration Page set-up has minimal customization at the time of our conference (Sept 2024). As a User there is no way to indicate where you want your questions to show up on the ExpoPass registration form, nor what order you want the options from a drop down box to appear (ie. alphabetical order, number order, etc). 2. Session selections have no internal logic. Registrants can select multiple conflicting sessions. For example, if between 1pm and 3pm there are 4 workshops, at registration there is nothing that prevents a person from selecting all 4 of those workshops and registering for them. This plays havoc on the ability to know actual registration numbers verse mistakes. Additionally there is no way to make any session selections time slots mandatory so registrants easily look over session hour options, or for multi day events, miss the subsequent days because they did not select each day through the small drop down box at the top of the page. Additionally if you do see that box and move to the next page, it does not begin you at the top of that page, but rather in the same x/y position as the previous page. 3. Once a person is registered there no way to print their session selections. Session numbers cannot be printed on badges, mail merges, or even exported as an excel database. You have 2 options to retrieve this data, either export the "Session Pre-registration URL" which you can click for every user to see their selections, or you can download the Session Attendance report which is a roster for who is signed up for individual sessions. Neither report is useful if you want to look at what a group of individuals selected (or failed to select because they overlooked something, see number 2). Additionally the URL once opened does not indicate on the open browser whose sessions you're editing. When working in spreadsheets you must be VERY careful to avoid mistakenly selecting Joe's URL when attempting to edit Jane's URL because once the URL is open it does not tell you whether you are looking at Joe's or Jane's session options and since you can't pull a report on those options mistakes are easily made. 4. The only way to register groups through the system is through a Promocode system. We have several schools and Churches who register groups for our conference, and creating promocodes and invoicing those groups for their group amount through the promocode they purchased was our only option. This became cumbersome as promocodes at the time of our conference (Sept 2024) could only adjusted by the user to be either unlimited or one time use. We needed to create an additional database of promocodes and work with ExpoPass' Dev Team to ensure the appropriate limits were set, the promise was that these limits would take effect 1 to 2 business days after the request but in reality it was up to a week or beyond since the Dev Team would only review those requests weekly. Additionally the promocodes are tied to Registration Level and not to individual registrant. This makes sense in a "Tiered Ticket" scenario but for CEU tracks that have the same value as General Admission tracks this is a complete mess, as groups like schools and Churches who need promocodes to register their groups will have multiple different track needs. There should be an option to tie a promocode to the registration at the end rather than only to tracks. 5. The Exhibitor tab is completely unusable. When an exhibitor is inputted into the Exhibitor tab the ARE NOT included with the credentials that are printed. They need to be added to the Attendees tab in addition to being in the Exhibitor tab. In the Exhibitor tab only one person can be link with an exhibitor company. We have several publishing companies who come to exhibit at our conference and every one of them will send more than one person to assist at their exhibitor booth. This is "rectified" in the exhibitor portion of the app, but even there exhibitors can add their own personnel, but none of that info gets to the User and thus none of their personnel gets credentials for the event. 6. Attendees cannot also be Users. A User in ExpoPass is anyone who has access to the data to add attendees, manipulate sessions, or scan attendees at session doors for CEU tracking. For example, me as the client could not be registered as an attendee at my conference if I wanted to also control the data at my conference. The way around this is to create a separate email and generate 2 different sign-in profiles, one as a user and one as an attendee. There are many more problems, but the max character limit is 5000. Other issues to ask about: inconsistent capitalization across platform, Spanish options, if/than logic needs, and more.

We were in need of a service for our event for on-site registration including payment capture as well as name badge printing. Online research lead us to Expo Pass, which turned out to be a great choice to fulfill our event needs. Website was rather easy and intuitive to navigate and if there were problems, the Expo Pass support team was ready to help. All the necessary hardware was sent as planned and everything worked well throughout the 3-day event. Self check-in was easy and on-site registrations also worked well. Users of the kiosks for check-in/name badge printing and on-site registrations exclaimed how well everything worked.

Had an issue setting-up the registration form on the user website. Recommendations from support attempted to remedy the problem, but self-help guides were repetitive and standard responses. It took several attempts to correct the problem. Also, on-site registrations by a single person signing-up multiple attendees did not work as planned initially.

Attendees and brands loved the simplicity and how next level it felt (beyond just a wristband). I'd definitely recommed ExpoPass for your next event, especially if you are looking for it to feel like you're offering a premier experience!

We had difficulty with our sessions and logging in on Android devices. We also ran into some issues during the sales process of the sales rep knowing the services that are included/not included in the price

Set up was pretty easy, they have instructions that are super detailed. Once that's done the printing process is very fast and efficient. We also used their reporting process for our event raffles, so their time tracking of printed badges helped us out a lot.

Honestly everything worked really well, I can't think of anything that would be a negative. It is a little pricey but everything that is provided makes it so worth it.

Ease of use, customer service, quality. There was always someone available to support. We had an expedited timeline for this event, and they guided me through the process quickly.

One of the printers was being troublesome, but after troubleshooting with the support desk, it ended up taking care of itself. Note that the system is unable to process duplicates - so in the past I've had to delete the Guest List and re-upload it. Reminder to always make sure the Client provides a clean list.

•Check-in ran smoothly overall, and the badge printing process received great feedback. •Setup instructions were clear and easy to follow

•Some android users had difficulty downloading or logging into the Mobile App. •Some attendees experienced challenges when trying to complete session feedback surveys. •Checking in attendees for the second day was a bit tricky, you created a workaround that worked well. I'll share that feedback with our team.

Having onsite support is huge for our company and our events. Expo Pass always has exceptional support staff onsite at our event and we could not do it without them!

Saving leads after badge scanning is sometimes confusing. Our exhibitors would scan a badge and take notes, and sometimes back out after that with the scan not saving to the software.

The setup directions and process are easy. The interface for the attendees is easy and professional looking. It is easy for attendees to change their information if needed. The badges look great and very professional.

The cost that comes with the badge printing service that is not paid to Expo Pass. Unfortunately, the venue can charge an exorbitant fees for a dedicated hardline and power drops for the equipment, and you might not take that into account when signing up for this service.
