# Member Check-In Methods

## 4 Ways to Track and Record Where Members Check-In

| **Source** | **Meaning** |
| --- | --- |
| **KIOSK** | Self-service pin pass or QR speed pass |
| **MANUAL** | Staff-assisted check-in at the front desk |
| **RHOMBUS** | Automatic camera-based check-in |
| **APP.................................COMING SOON!** | Member checked in via mobile app |

### **Kiosk Check-In**

Member enters their pin / QR pass at a self-service kiosk

- Member enters a 4–6 digit pin / scans QR speed pass → system verifies → access granted
- Kiosk mode keeps the display locked to the check-in screen, requiring an unlock code to access the rest of the Fitness GM account.
- Kiosk features: QR Speed Pass, Pin Pass, upcoming/in-progress session display
- **Best for:** Self-service and quick check-ins

### **Manual Check-In (Front Desk)**

Staff checks a member in via the Members or Access tab

- **Members Tab:** Members → search member's name in the search bar → click **⋮** → Check In
- **Access Tab:** Enter member's pin under Pin Pass → click Enter
- **Best for:** Small gyms, personal service, members without a phone

### **Rhombus Integration (Camera-Based)**

Automatic check-in via facial recognition, wave-to-unlock, or key fob

| Method | How It Works |
| --- | --- |
| Facial Recognition | Member enters gym → camera matches face → auto check-in, no member action needed |
| Wave to Unlock | Member downloads Rhombus app → waves phone at door reader → auto check-in |
| Key Fob | Staff assigns fob to Rhombus profile → member waves fob at door reader |

- **Best for:** Large, high-traffic, or 24/7 gyms

→ See [\[Rhombus Integration Guide\]](https://blog.fitnessgm.com/en/fitness-gm-kb2026/rhombus-integration-guide?hsLang=en) for Rhombus Console overview

### **Mobile App Check-In...................................................COMING SOON!**

Members check in directly from their phone

- Member opens app → taps "Check In" → optional GPS verification → checked in instantly
- **Best for:** Contactless check-ins, tracking attendance automatically
