- Checking ticketsVerifying admission tickets and authorisations.
- Managing paymentsAutomating payments for services where applicable.

From entry to visitor control
Daicon integrates hardware and software components in a coordinated solution. The configuration is designed according to the facility's needs: not all elements are necessarily present in the same installation.
Ticket / payment
The visitor buys or holds their admission ticket, in digital or paper form.
Identification
The ticket code, badge or credential is read by the system at the entrance.
Access control
The software checks the validity of the ticket and the associated authorisations in real time.
Turnstile / gate
If the check is successful, the gate opens and the visitor enters the facility.
Flow management
Entries are distributed across the available gates to avoid congestion.
Monitoring
Entries are recorded and made available for supervision and reporting.
Manage access from a single platform
Gate Plus is Daicon's proprietary software for access control and supervision. Where the solution provides for it, it lets you centralise the management of entries, visitors and gates from a single platform.
The Gate Plus features documented on the Daicon website include: user and authorisation management, time slots, visitor management with self check-in and visit history, real-time monitoring and supervision on a synoptic map, access history and reports, multi-site management and document verification via QR Code.
Paid entry and services
When the facility offers services or areas with paid access, Daicon can integrate payment systems (POS, coin acceptors, electronic fiscal receipts) with access control, based on the automatic payment solutions already delivered for self-service facilities and automated gates.
The right technology for every entrance
Daicon integrates hardware and software to create a solution suited to the features of the facility.

FAQ
Is the system compatible with existing ticketing networks?
Yes. Daicon's access control system with ticket validation is designed to communicate with the main ticketing networks (including TicketOne, Vivaticket, Ticketmaster, DIYTicket) and with any platform able to generate standard QR Codes or barcodes, including via REST API.
Can I use the access control hardware I already have?
Gate Plus is designed to integrate with hardware from various manufacturers; Daicon offers an analysis of the existing installation to check compatibility before any replacement.
Does the system work without a stable internet connection?
Yes, there is an offline validation mode with a preloaded ticket list, with automatic synchronisation when the network is restored.
Can the system manage several gates at the same time?
Yes, the system supports a scalable number of turnstiles and gates, synchronised in real time to prevent double entry with the same ticket.
