Modern organizations need a secure, fast, and seamless way to manage visitor access—without slowing down reception or compromising security.With VIPadm, visitor RFID access cards can be fully integrated with existing RFID-based access control systems (such as Siemens and similar providers), allowing visitor data to be transferred automatically and securely.

This creates a smooth visitor experience from invitation to check-out, while giving organizations full control and visibility. What Is the VIPadm RFID Visitor Solution?

The VIPadm RFID integration connects digital visitor invitations, physical RFID cards, and external access control systems into one unified workflow.

Once a visitor registers, VIPadm automatically sends the required access data to the access control system—no manual handling, no double entry, and no delays.

Solution Components

The RFID visitor solution consists of three key components working together:

🔹 VIPscan Terminal (iPhone)

  • Used to scan Apple Wallet or Google Wallet invitations

  • Can also scan RFID cards

Ideal for quick, self-service check-in at reception


🔹 VIPvisitor Terminal (iPad)

  • Used for manual visitor registration

  • Perfect for walk-in visitors or exceptions

  • Simple, guided registration flow




🔹 RFID Reader

  • Links the visitor to a physical RFID access card

  • Ensures correct association between visitor and card




 

 

How the Visitor Flow Works

VIPadm is designed to make the visitor journey intuitive while maintaining high security standards.

1. Invitation in Advance

Most visitors receive a digital invitation by email, which can be added to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet.All visitor information is securely stored in VIPadm before arrival.

2. Arrival at the Company

When the visitor arrives, they pick up a physical RFID access card at reception.

3. Card Registration

The visitor then completes registration in one of two ways:

  • Scans their Wallet invitation at the VIPscan terminal (iPhone)

    or

  • Registers manually on the VIPvisitor terminal (iPad)

After registration, the visitor is prompted to scan the RFID card, linking it to their profile.

4. Automatic Transfer to Access Control System

Once registration is completed, VIPadm automatically transfers the required access information to the external RFID access control system.The RFID card is activated instantly—no manual configuration required.

5. Access Management by the Host

The host or employee receiving the visitor:

  • Grants access to specific doors and zones

  • Controls exactly where and when the visitor can enter

This ensures principle-based, secure access control.

6. Check-Out Upon Departure

When the visit ends:

  • The visitor checks out in VIPadm

  • The RFID card is returned to reception

  • Access is automatically revoked

7. RFID Card Loan Tracking

VIPadm includes a dedicated web module for card loan management, giving reception and security teams full visibility:

  • Who has which RFID card

  • When it was issued

  • Which cards have not yet been returned
