Why event professionals choose Conference Badges

You’ve got a lot riding on your next event. 

Badges, registration, and check-in are the first things your delegates experience – and if that bit goes wrong, everyone notices. That amazing experience you planned can faceplant before anyone even gets inside.

That’s where we come in. We’re the team in the background quietly making sure everything just… works. 

Google and Trustpilot reviews

Global big event experience. Human-sized team.

In our team’s 25 years in events we’ve:

  • Supported some of the most high-profile events in the world, including:

    • The Coronation of King Charles III

    • COP GLOBAL environmental summits

    • The Commonwealth Games

    • MAD//Fest

    • G20 Summit

  • Delivered thousands of smaller conferences, meetings and roadshows
  • Designed and produced millions of event badges and lanyards

We’re established enough to handle complex, multi-day events with five-digit numbers of attendees – but still small enough that you’ll know who’s picking up the phone, and they’ll know you. 

You’re never just ‘Job #4721’.

Trusted by brands you know (and thousands you won't)

We’re proud to be trusted by organisations such as:

  • Google

  • Microsoft

  • HM Government

  • Department for Culture, Media and Sport

  • NHS

  • M&S

  • Ford

And many, many others – from global names to niche specialist events you’ve probably seen in your LinkedIn feed.

Check out why we’re rated ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot and Google Reviews.

We’re in it for the event, not the upsell

Our view is simple: if your event goes well, we get to keep your business and our reputation.  If you feel fleeced, we probably keep neither. 

So we focus on what’s right for your event, and your budget – not on shoehorning-in our most profitable product.

We’ll tell you if you don’t need the ‘all the bells and whistles’ option. Quite often, a well-designed, robust setup beats something flashy that depends on six different logins and perfect venue WiFi.

Registration, designed with you (not done to you)

You don’t just get a price list and a shrug. You get experienced people who’ve seen hundreds of different registration flows and delegate journeys.

We’ll help you:

  • Design a smooth registration experience, from form to front desk

  • Decide what belongs on the badge (and what doesn’t)

  • Plan for VIPs, speakers, exhibitors and those people who email you at 11pm the night before asking if they’re on the list

Think of us as an extra pair of hands. The kind that turn up prepared, not the kind you have to brief from scratch on show day.

Spoke with a few members of the team (one being Ben) on the phone, great customer service. Ordered lanyards, foam event badge organiser tray and A-Z cards for sorting, REALLY great value. I made an error with my order online, called and they - without too many rules and 'procedures' solved my error. Coming back when I can! Thanks guys.

Technical techs

Our onsite staff are actual fully-trained technicians who work with this kit all the time – not temporary, part-time staff drafted in and handed a lanyard and a script. 

It’s too common in the industry to employ part-time actors and bill them on as event technicians.

Our onsite team know how to:

  • Troubleshoot printers and scanners calmly under pressure

  • Work with your registration team, venue and data providers

  • Keep the line moving when everyone decides to arrive bang on 9am

You get people who know what they’re doing, so you don’t have to hover behind the registration desk muttering ‘please work, please work’.

Built to fly even after the wifi guy says bye

Venue wifi. Lovely when it behaves – you just don’t want to bet your whole event on it.

Imagine your live day has just started, your delegates are all turning up, but the wifi signal hasn’t. Venue-wifi-guy has just called in sick, and you just got told the badging system’s entirely ‘cloud-based’. 

Your logistics and lead capture are all depending on badges… you’d better get good at drawing QR codes with a Sharpie.

Our solutions are built with resilience first:

  • Offline-capable wherever possible, so scanning and badging can continue even if the connection drops

  • Benefits of the cloud when wifi works. Huge relief that you can still print when it doesn’t.

  • Local backups and sensible fall-backs baked into the plan

  • Clear processes so your team know what happens if Plan A decides to take the afternoon off

Tech is there to support your event, not to hold it hostage.

Badges that look great, scan perfectly, and reflect your brand

A good badge is more than a bit of card on a lanyard – it’s a piece of your brand, in everyone’s hands (and in every event photo). It’s a statement about how the brand and the guest come together.

You don’t have to design it alone. You get a real person who’ll:

  • Guide you through artwork and layout

  • Advise on details like QR code sizing so it scans instantly without taking over the badge

  • Work within your timelines, even when you’re juggling sponsors, speakers and “can we just…” requests

  • Help you choose the right materials, including sustainable options that still look sharp and professional

We can also print your lanyards, so everything arrives together, matches perfectly and saves you from coordinating three different suppliers who all insist their bit is the highest priority.

The result: a badge that feels polished, on-brand and reliable. Something delegates keep.

Always on time. Usually early.

We understand that badges are not something you can “send next week”.

  • We never miss delivery deadlines

  • We’re usually early with deliveries – meaning receiving your badges is one less ‘what if’ on your mind

  • Being based within easy reach of London means we’re perfectly placed for urgent jobs and last-minute deliveries to venues in the capital

If the courier tracking page is your secret guilty pleasure in event week, we’re your people.

The team at Conference Badges helped us out at short notice by providing pre-printed badges for a national roadshow in the Autumn of 2018. We found them friendly, reliable, quick to respond to any communications and the badges looked smart! We'd not hesitate to use them again in the future.

Specialists simply do it better

We’re not trying to be everything to everyone. We specialise in:

That focus means we care deeply about details that other suppliers might treat as an afterthought – badge print quality, queue flow, backup printers, brand consistency, and how it all feels on the ground on the day.

Worried you’ll have to pass data from supplier to supplier? Don’t be. We can integrate with just about any registration or CRM system. If your platform has an API or export, we can pull the data even quicker than you can say “Delegate List version 223b FINAL.xlsx”.

Sector experience that translates to event success

We’ve worked across a wide range of industries, including:

  • Healthcare & NHS

  • Pharma

  • Automotive

  • Technology

  • Finance

  • Government and public sector

…plus plenty more.

That means we understand things like data sensitivity, approval chains, last-minute attendee changes and the joys of working with multiple stakeholders who all need slightly different badge layouts.

This is why so many event agencies work with us.

Thinking about switching up your next event?

Whether you’re running a 200-person away day or a multi-track conference with thousands of delegates and a ministerial keynote, we’d love to help.

Tell us what you’re planning. And we’ll build a badge and onsite solution that quietly does its job so you can get on with yours.
