RainFocus is the next-generation event marketing platform built to capture and analyze unprecedented amounts of first-party data for exceptional events and optimized engagement throughout the customer journey. RainFocus powers flawless experiences with secure, scalable solutions to support the entire event lifecycle.
Wicket facial authentication technology is fully integrated into the RainFocus platform, allowing event organizers to easily incorporate facial authentication into their events, including session check-in and badge printing, back-of-house security, and a seamless facial check-in option during the registration process.
Attendees who opt-in can present to a Wicket-powered sensor on event day to check-in, print and pick up their badge, and come back for multi-day events, transforming a cumbersome, time-consuming process into a delightfully quick experience.
In 2023, RainFocus and Wicket worked with Salesforce to deploy the solution at several regional Salesforce events—dubbing it Digital Pass—as a lead-in to one of the biggest technology events in the world: Salesforce Dreamforce.
At Dreamforce 2023, Digital Pass facilitated over 8,000 check-ins. By 2024, Salesforce expanded its use across multiple events and made Digital Pass the primary check-in method at Dreamforce, with over 25,000 attendees using it to enter the event.
Earlier that same year, Wicket participated in a pitch tank competition at RainFocus INSIGHT, winning first place as voted by attendees. This spurred additional adoption of Wicket’s solution at RainFocus-powered events in 2024.
Reduces check-in times by 3x, with automatic badge-printing that allows attendees to spend less time in lines and more time at the event.
Improves event security by ensuring only those with event passes can enter while minimizing the revenue loss associated with badge-sharing.
Can be used for session check-in, session or keynote access, enrollment status check, on-site enrollment, and access control for staff members.
A simple, one-time enrollment process allows attendees to use the technology wherever it's available in the event, while protecting their privacy.
The Wicket & RainFocus solution is secure, lightweight, and highly configurable, allowing event managers to test and adapt the Wicket sensors as needs change.
