📱Treasure hunt (App)

Are you looking to boost engagement at your event? or Offer your attendees a unique experience? Then the treasure hunt could be what you are looking for.

How the treasure hunt works

The treasure hunt can be used in multiple ways to tailor to your event's needs. This feature allows you to provide greater coverage to certain locations, exhibitors, users or programme items at your event.

Users will find the treasure hunt feature from the app's navigation and depending on how the treasure hunt has been set up users will be given an element to hunt for (location, programme, users or exhibitor). The user's task is to find a series of QR codes that when scanned unlock a question relevant to the area. Users will receive points for questions answered correctly, and it is possible to add a ranking list to show who is leading the treasure hunt
