Frequently asked questions

If you don't find what you are looking for, just give us a call!

Do you offer eco friendly badge options?: Yes, we care strongly about the environment at identilam and offer recycled and recyclable eco badges. We are constantly striving to add more sustainable and environmentally friendly products to our range.

Do you sell badges that don't require plastic wallets?: Our hugely popular idhesive badges can be printed on-site and directly attached to a lanyard or attachment without the need for a plastic wallet. The idhesive range is available with a selection of badge sizes and materials including tear and water-resistant options.
The identilam idgreen, idpremium, idflex and idcard ranges are all available with hole punches – so no need to plastic wallets!

Can I print my own badges or do you print them for me?: Both options are available to you. We can print all of your badges for you as part of a managed bureau or on-site service. If you would like to print badges yourself we have printing and software packages available to suit your needs. Get in touch with our team to discuss further.

Can I print my badges on-site or do I need to print them in advance?: Our Badge&Go system enables you to print badges as delegates arrive at the event. The identilam on-site badge printing package is fast, gives you more flexibility and ensures less wastage.

Do you supply RFID badges?: Yes, Badge&Track can operate with both barcode and RFID technology. Our badges can be supplied with an RFID chip which can then be scanned using a handheld RFID reader or tapped on desktop or wall-mounted readers positioned around the venue.
Want RFID badges but don’t need to print yourself? See our idpremium range for custom RFID badges.

Can your software be integrated with other systems such as registrations or event management platforms?: Yes, we provide integrations for our Badge&Print software via an API interface. This enables seamless transfer of data and information such as access rights and badge category. The interface removes the need for manual import/export of information between databases.

How can I create my badge design?: If you are printed badges yourself, use our Badge&Print software. With 20 sizes to choose from and a feature-rich design tool. Include pictures, barcodes and variable data.
Alternatively, speak to a member of the identilam staff. We have a dedicated artwork team who can help you create your badge designs.

How can I import my attendees' details?: Data import is easy with CSV transfer as standard. API development is available for an additional fee.

How can I track delegate attendance at my event?: The Badge&Track module available enables you to track and report on attendance to your event as well as individual break out rooms, sessions and seminars. Real-time reports can be viewed in a dashboard style format.

Do you supply portable badge printers?: We offer a range of badge printers including colour inkjet and direct to plastic printers.
Our most popular model for conference and event badges is the idhesive express badge printer which enables the production of high quality, full colour, water and tear-resistant badges in around 6 seconds.
Our idcard plastic card printers will print up to 150 high quality PVC cards per hour. See the specifications of our Compact, Economy and Premium printers to find one that fits your requirements.

What is included in the onsite badging service?: We manage the whole process for you from badge set up and printing in advance of your event, through to full onsite support.
A dedicated project manager is allocated to guide you through each stage. Onsite we can supply badge printers and all other necessary equipment to enable the production of badges on-demand as delegates arrive, or for late registrations and reissues.
