Mobile Scan/Sales Equipment
Handheld equipment is used in many scenarios, such as scanning and selling tickets at gates, selling parking, and more. There are several options to choose from depending on whether you need to scan, sell, print tickets, or a combination.
Mobile equipment is perfect for:
- selling down the line to get customers in the gates quickly
- parking lots
- merchandise/general store
- quick set up gate admission sales
Other equipment may be a better choice for:
- reserved seating
- selling in advance (weeks) before an event
Laser Scanners
Laser scanners are highly flexible scanning/selling tools offering maximum flexibility for your event needs. Scan, sell, and print tickets over Wi-fi or cellular data connection, with long lasting batteries keeping you mobile. SaffireTix currently offers 2 types of laser scanners, the Chainway and the Zebra. Both offer scanning, selling, and ticket printing on the go, and are able to accept both swipe and tap-to-pay credit card transactions.

iPhones
We currently rent out iPhone XR devices. These iPhones have a larger screen and one of the longest lasting batteries in the iPhone lineup of devices. Some things to note about this device: There is no headphone jack, if you are using a cc reader that will need to be plugged into a headphone jack you will need to use a headphone to lightning port adapter (sold at most electronics stores).
iPads - We rent out a mixture of iPad air devices and iPad mini. These will always have the most up to date iOS and SaffireTix app (unless something is released during the shipping of your devices). These operate only on WiFi.
Hip Printer - Star Micronics SM-L300 printer pairs with our app without any additional settings needing to be enabled, other than Bluetooth, which you are prompted to enable directly in the SaffireTix app
Authorize.net and other payment processor credit card readers - We offer two different credit card readers for those that aren't using PayPal Here, the difference between these readers is only that one has a headphone jack and the other connects via the Lightning Port (iPhone charging port).
Card Connect mobile cc readers - In addition to the two generic cc readers above, if you are using Card Connect, you can also use the following chip/tap/swipe readers with your mobile POS
