Tesla streamlines Model 3 event check-in process with custom QR code for attendees

[Guest]

Attendees of Friday’s Tesla Model 3 Delivery Event at the company’s Fremont factory will be required to present their unique QR code before being allowed entrance into the exclusive event. The move is seen as a way for Tesla to streamline the check-in process for invitees and their guests to what’s expected to be more of a Tesla employee celebration party.

The anticipated event which will take place at an outdoor venue set up outside of the main factory, and live streamed on Tesla.com. CEO Elon Musk will provide remarks beginning at 9PM Pacific (4AM GMT).

Based on our experiences from past Tesla events including last year’s Model 3 unveiling event, the “check-in” process for both press and non-press generally requires waiting in a lengthy line that leads to a registration table. A handful of franticly-moving Tesla employees behind the registration table will ask for your name/company, verify your name against a paper list, and then issue you a wristband and/or badge for attendance.

The use of a QR code will allow Tesla staff to expedite the registration process, ensure smoother crowd control by keeping the line moving, while also allowing the team to validate that invitations are not used more than once.

A big thanks to Model S owner and YouTuber DÆrik for providing us with an early look at the Model 3 QR code pass.
