Barcode on Membership Cards
Barcodes on Membership Cards - I would like to see barcodes added to the membership cards so we can verify 1) they are a member; 2) their membership is current; 3) how many people are covered under their membership so we can charge for additional guests. So the barcode would be used to pull up a particular member in WA in real-time at check-in. Does this already exist? And if so, how do we activate it?

Agree, WAP already support QR code reader for events, seems like an easy ask to support barcode reader for member verification - after all, this is a member management software system!

I am an Admin on many WA accounts and we have been also looking for this same capability! We are being forced to go to a third party to check people into our facility. Basically uploading our membership list to their application to do exactly what I know WA can do. With just a few tweaks WA could also be able to check people from a household in, not to an event but to the facilities. They could check in 3 of the 5 members of a family so we could track who out of the total household was there.
All the info is there in WA, it kills me to have to pay another company to make this happen. -

Second this. It would make checking in my members at our events EXTREMELY useful as many don't know how to access their QR code in their email and don't use the app. Having a Bar/QR code that can be put on a a printed card for them to simply have scanned by an Admin level member to check them in would be amazing
