Enable your customers to pass directly through the PORTALUM turnstilePORTALUM. In addition to the interface to the PORTALUM POS, an integration with the PORTALUM POS system is also possible. The interface for redeeming vouchers at the POS is not covered in this article and is a separate interface.

If you are interested in this interface, feel free to contact us at sales@incert.at. In addition, the interface must be commissioned and activated through PORTALUM.  

Process

1. PORTALUM item IDs are stored for the relevant items in incert (and the interface is set up and activated).
2. Instead of the incert code, a QR code based on the PORTALUM format is generated upon sale and printed on the item (voucher or ticket).
3. This QR code contains the data PORTALUM requires at the turnstile to determine whether access should be granted.
4. PORTALUM blocks the used code from being used for further entries.

Important Notes

• Only items that were generated with a PORTALUM QR code when issued can be used for access. If the interface is added to an existing system, only items sold after the interface has been implemented can be used at the turnstile. 
• Each person requires their own ticket, as the ticket is used directly for passage through the turnstile.
• A cancellation in incert does not automatically result in a cancellation in PORTALUM, as no query is made to incert when access is granted. If required, a cancellation must therefore be carried out separately in PORTALUM.
• Access through the turnstile is not reported back to incert. Tickets therefore remain in the “not redeemed” status in incert unless they are additionally redeemed or written off in incert. Multiple use at the turnstile is prevented by PORTALUM.
• The period during which PORTALUM grants access can be defined in incert. For tickets, the start time and duration of the event are automatically used. In addition, the separately configurable redemption period can be used. If these details are not set, the validity of the item is used. This allows access to be limited to a specific period for both tickets and voucher items if they are used as a “ticket in voucher form”.
