Open your Boardingware Student App, and select the +New Button at the bottom.


Tap the circle icon on the bottom menu bar.


Hover your device over the NFC Checkpoint, pointing the top to the chip, so you see the below screen.

The below screen will appear indicating that your check-in was successful after you scan the chip.*

*Some location may require you to fill in a pass. If this is the case, your app will prompt you to fill in the pass details. 

If you are having trouble using this feature, please make sure your device is compatible with NFC and also running on the latest version of the Boardingware Student App. 


Why am I being linked to the website through NFC?

To use Boardingware's NFC Checkpoints,  you will need to download the Boardingware Student App. 

If you do not use the NFC Checkpoint directly through Boardingware App you will find that you will be asked to open a link to our website. For iOS users using iPhone 7 or higher, please ignore this pop up and go directly through our Boardingware Student App. For Android users, choose "Open with Boardingware" "every time".
