Tech Conference Badge FAQs

Can I add QR codes that link to attendee profiles or LinkedIn?
Yes. You can add a QR code field to your badge design that encodes any URL or text value. Most organizers link to attendee profile pages, LinkedIn profiles, or digital business card services. The QR code is generated automatically for each attendee from your imported data.
How do I create different badge designs for speakers and attendees?
You can create multiple badge templates within the same event and assign them based on attendee role. For example, speakers can have a gold accent bar with a "Speaker" label, while general attendees get a standard layout. Role-based assignments can be automated via your CSV import.
Can I import attendee data from Eventbrite or Luma?
Absolutely. Export your attendee list as a CSV from Eventbrite, Luma, Tito, or any registration platform, then upload it to Online Badge Designer. Our field mapping tool lets you match columns to badge fields in seconds.
Do you support hackathon team badges with team names and tracks?
Yes. You can include team name, project track, and table assignment fields on your badge design. When you import your data, each team member receives a badge with their team information, making it easy for judges and mentors to navigate the hackathon floor.
What formats can I export badges in?
Badges are exported as high-resolution PDFs formatted for standard badge sizes. PDFs are print-ready and can be sent directly to a printer or printed on-site. The layout is optimized for common badge holders and lanyard inserts used at tech conferences.
