The staff portal allows admin and staff to make transactions on behalf of the participant. One great thing about this feature is that it allows you to enter cash transactions or any transactions outside of Accelevents.

Accessing the Staff Portal

The staff portal can be accessed in 2 ways:

From the event page - login and click the Event Staff button at the top of the page.

From the admin console - click your profile, then select Event Staff from the dropdown.

In The Staff Portal, both Admins and Staff can do the following:

For Ticketed Events

Check-In Attendees	You can manually check in in-person attendees if they have already arrived at the event venue. Click here to learn more about attendee check-in.
Session Check In	You can manually check in attendees to in-person sessions when they enter the session room.
Sell Event Tickets	This works like the Add Attendee tab in the admin console, where you can also select Cash or Check as payment type.
