      How does remote sign-in work in Qminder?

      How to set up remote sign-in and disperse crowds?

      Remote Sign-In with Qminder allows visitors to join the queue before arriving, offering a flexible and efficient waiting experience. 

      How does remote sign-in work?

      1. Visitors sign in remotely

        • Visitors access your location's Visit Planner page via a link or QR code, where they can enter their name, and other details and select a Service to check-in.
        • Remotely signed-in visitors appear in the Service View labeled as “from website” for easy identification.

      2. Visitor waits remotely

        • After signing in, visitors can wait in their car or any location outside. With Text Messaging enabled, visitors receive a confirmation and can chat with Clerks if needed.

      3. Clerk calls visitor for Service

        • When it’s their turn, visitors receive a text with further instructions (if SMS is enabled) or are called in by name or via Qminder’s TV waitlist app.
