NightKey is a state of the art identity management system that controls access to nightclubs, pubs and venues using fingerprinting. When NightKey started to experience rapid growth, oneit was approached to scale its system and develop an interface for venue owners.
NightKey is the first publicly available large scale biometric access control and ID verification system designed for the hospitality industry. When a patron enters a nightclub, pub or other venue, his/her ID is scanned in conjunction with a fingerprint. The system records both, allowing the patron to use fingerprinting for future visits.
NightKey's developers created an innovative system. oneit is assisting them to accommodate their rapid growth. To achieve this, the existing software is being streamlined and made scalable and a web interface has been created for venue owners.
The sensitive nature of the collected data and privacy issues demand exceptional security from the NightKey system. oneit has implemented stringent security controls, affecting who can view data and which data can be accessed. An audit trail accompanies every data search.
For marketing purposes, oneit's system permits bulk email and SMS messages to be sent. Patrons can be contacted by their chosen method, yet their personal details can remain secret from the person authorising the bulk communication.
Another innovation is the ability to issue SMS digital tickets. These tickets can be texted in bulk to patrons and then scanned at the door to gain entry.
