History

Checkin was established by Kristian Løining after his experience as a volunteer revealed a need for an event-registration system.⁷⁸ The company developed from registration software into a broader event-management platform covering ticketing, participant communication, check-in, payments, invoicing, and accounting workflows.²⁴ Checkin operates under the corporate name Checkin AS and uses a usage-based pricing model rather than a fixed monthly subscription.⁷⁸

Reputation

Checkin is presented as a practical Nordic event platform emphasizing an integrated financial and administrative workflow rather than registration alone.⁴⁹ Its main differentiators are pay-per-use pricing, built-in check-in, and accounting features, which can suit organizations with irregular or seasonal events.¹² The usage-based model can become comparatively expensive for high-volume or low-margin events, and additional transaction, refund, import, and support fees may apply.³⁶
