What is needed to create a custom badge?
To be able to create a custom badge for your event, you will need to provide some key information so that our developers can create and implement the badge in the system.
Please read the following information carefully:
We require the badge design a minimum of 5 working days before the event.
All the required files and designs must be handed in latest 5 days before the start of your event. If the deadline is not met, you will be required to pay an additional 100 euros per day late as a rush fee.
Once the custom badge has been developed and implemented the design cannot be changed.

Your Consultant will share with you which badge type you have, otherwise please contact us via support@letsgetdigital.com
Create a custom badge design
The badge design must have the correct badge type dimensions in PNG format.
Use CMYK colours only in your design. CMYK colours are specifically required because they ensure that the badge design can be processed correctly by our system.
Provide two versions of the badge design
Version 1: Badge with variable elements This version should have space for variable data such as:
First name
Last name
Company name
Company role
QR code (if applicable)
Version 2: Badge without variable elements This version should only include the fixed background images and design, without any of the variables data such as names or QR codes.
Important: Ensure that there are no crop marks, trim lines, or other additional markings on the design. Only the background design should be present, as these marks can interfere with the system's processing and final printing.
Include custom fonts (if applicable)
If you've used custom fonts in your design, make sure to include the TTF files (TrueType Fonts).
If your design includes bold or italic versions of the fonts, also include the TTF files for bold/italic.
Verify the final result
Ensure that both badge designs (with and without variable elements) meet the dimension requirements, use the CMYK colour profile, and are saved in PNG format.
Confirm that any required TTF files for custom fonts are attached.
By following these steps, you can submit your badge designs correctly and in line with the required specifications!
Please note: 48 hours before your event, you will receive an email with your badges and the request to approve/decline them via a button. Please do so asap and get in contact with Let's Get Digital straight away if there are any changes neccessary!
