Ticketbud's Integrated Waiver feature helps get your event attendees through the line and to the fun more quickly by eliminating the need for additional devices or processes at check-in.

Ticketbud built the feature in an effort to resolve a real pain point many have experienced when attending an event -- the hassle of getting your ticket scanned, then being directed to another tablet or person to fill out a waiver. The process slows down important attendee access points and risks negative first impressions.

Any event organizer using Ticketbud to manage their event registration process has access to the feature. As with any tool or integration on the site, Ticketbud's customer service team is available to help with implementation. Reach out to our team with any questions today.
