*How can I set up the scanner to scan tickets when entering and/or leaving the venue?*

***

The Ticketmatic scanning app offers the possibility to scan tickets both when entering and leaving the venue. This always provides a live overview of the number of people present in the venue.

There are two ways to do this:

1. **Scan mode**
   With scan mode, you can predefine whether you want to use the app for scanning tickets in or out.
2. **Fast Switching**
   With the 'Fast Switching' feature, you can quickly switch between scanning in and out.

# Using scan mode

Open the Ticketmatic scanning app and sync the event you want to scan for. You can adjust the scan mode via the three dots **-->** **Settings**.

Then, via **scan mode**, you can choose whether you want to scan in or scan out.

# 2 - Using Fast Switching

Open the Ticketmatic scanning app and sync the event you want to scan for. To switch scan modes, **double tap** on the screen.

To switch back to scan mode ***In***, simply double tap the screen again. This allows you to quickly and easily switch between scan modes.
