History

CrowdPass was founded in 2021 by Duncan Abdelnour, Christopher Foote, and Lawrence Helfant. The company developed an event-management platform combining registration, ticketing, access control, credentialing, badge printing, and analytics.

Manufacturing

CrowdPass is primarily a software and event-technology provider rather than a conventional manufacturer. Its physical event equipment includes CrowdReader scanning devices and printed credentials, with badge printing supported through Zebra ZC10L printers; the available information does not establish whether hardware is manufactured in-house or sourced from third parties.

Reputation

Public company information presents CrowdPass as a small, specialized event-software provider focused on reducing manual registration and entry processes through integrated credentials and real-time access data. Its apparent strengths are the unified attendee record, NFC/RFID and QR support, offline-capable scanning, and automatic badge printing. Publicly available independent reviews and detailed customer feedback were limited, so broad conclusions about reliability, support quality, or user satisfaction cannot be established. The platform’s pricing and hardware requirements may be less suitable for very small one-off events than basic ticketing or check-in tools.
