Access control for nightlife
Know who walks in, in seconds
ID Scan reads IDs, passports and licenses at the door: it verifies age, alerts you when someone is on a ban list, and records every visit so you actually know your crowd.
Free, no strings attached — we reply within one business day.
- Works online and offline
- Any Android phone
- Documents from every country

The problem
The door is the most critical point of the night
And at most venues it still runs on eyesight and memory.
Fake IDs and underage guests
Eyeballing an ID at night with a growing line is a recipe for mistakes that end in fines and shutdowns.
Troublemakers who come back
Without a shared record across doormen and shifts, the person who caused problems last Saturday walks right back in.
Zero data about your crowd
Hundreds of people walk in every night and nothing is kept: no ages, no origin, no idea how often they return.
The solution
Full door control in a single platform
An Android app for the doorman and a web dashboard for management, synced in real time.
Document scanning
Costa Rican cédula, passports from any country, DIMEX and driver’s licenses. Read in seconds, even without internet.
Learn moreAccess lists & security
Ban, warning and VIP lists, plus guest lists for private events bulk-loaded from Excel. Guests show their ID and the app says whether they’re on the list.
Learn moreOccupancy control
Real-time occupancy with capacity limits, so you comply with occupancy and safety regulations without manual counting.
Learn moreReports & analytics
New vs. returning customers, peak hours, ages, gender, nationality and origin. Exportable to CSV.
Learn moreHow it works
Three steps between the line and the dance floor
No special hardware: an Android phone at the door and a browser in the office.
Scan the document
The doorman scans the ID barcode or the passport MRZ with an Android phone. Unreadable documents can be entered manually.
The system answers instantly
Green, yellow or red: age verified and the person automatically checked against your venue’s lists — faster than a handshake.
The visit is recorded
The dashboard updates live occupancy and adds the visit to the history, demographics and reports of the venue.
Supported documents
Not just Costa Rican IDs
ID Scan reads the international MRZ standard on passports and ID cards, the AAMVA format on North American licenses, and the encrypted barcode of the Costa Rican cédula.

- Costa Rican driver’s license
- Passports — all countries

Data that matters
Decisions from data, not hunches
Every scan feeds the venue’s dashboard: who comes, at what time, from where and how often. Perfect for negotiating with brands, planning events and tuning the operation.
- New vs. returning customers and visit frequency
- Peak hours and entry patterns night after night
- Demographic profile: age, gender and nationality
- Where your visitors come from, on the map
Built to protect the data
- Per-account decoding license
- Token authentication and session control
- Role-based permissions: doormen see only what they need
- Data isolated per organization
- Document validation on the device itself
