# Technical requirements for the reception

Make sure your guests get in smoothly on event day by getting the right setup ready for your reception area.

## Reception Module vs Check-in

When selling tickets or running free registration on the Meeting Application platform, you've got two ways to check tickets on event day.

1.  Check-in Module - lets you check entry tickets using the mobile app installed on an Android device (tablet or phone), where you're logged in with your event admin account. **This module doesn't let you print name labels** and is available as part of the basic plan.
    
2.  Reception Module - available for any admin logged into the mobile app on an Android device, using a special app version that lets you connect your mobile device to a printer. **This module lets you verify tickets and automatically print labels**.
    

## Reception requirements on the event day

To make sure reception works right and the devices can print name labels, you need to provide:

-   **dedicated, closed wifi network** - simple network name and password, e.g.: SSID: MeetingApp; Password: Acbad221!
    
-   **reception desks/tables** (if there are any, already marked with lines like speaker, media, attendees, etc.)
    
-   **trash bin** at each station (for label strips)
    
-   **electricity**: 2 sockets / station (tablet and printer) 
    
-   **ID and lanyards** (label size is 38mm x 90 mm)
    

**Have a great event with Meeting Application!**
