Every step of the way
Invite your volunteers, give each one a job, and they sign in with a six-digit code: no passwords, no app to install. Each role sees one job per screen, and on a shared tablet the next volunteer takes over with their own PIN, so everything is under the right name.

A volunteer can have more than one role. Removing a role takes effect straight away; a new role waits until their next sign-in, so nobody's screen changes under them mid-shift. Every plan has unlimited volunteers.
Add a volunteer's name, email address and, if you like, their mobile number, and pick their roles. Paddlit tells you if they've volunteered with you before, and how often. New volunteers get an email that walks them through setting up; people who already have an account get a one-tap join. Invitations last 14 days, and a volunteer who declines is shown as such, with an email to whoever invited them.
Duplicate last year's event and its volunteers come with it, ready to invite with one press.
Volunteers type their email address and get a six-digit code. Volunteers who confirmed their mobile when they set up can have it sent by text instead. Then they pick the event and the job they're doing, and land on the screen for it.
The day before the event, from noon, anyone who joined but hasn't signed in yet gets a reminder to sign in once that evening. Managers can send one any time.
Door volunteers and collectors who sign in with a code choose a four-digit PIN. At shift change, the next volunteer taps Switch volunteer, picks their name and enters their PIN. Everything they do from then on is recorded under their own name.
Switching works for people who have signed in on that device that night. Anyone else signs in with a code. Five wrong PINs and that person has to sign in with a code again.
Door volunteers, managers and owners can undo their last change straight after, from the toast that confirms it or the Undo button. Messages in staff chat and notes on a guest can be undone by anyone who wrote them.
In practice
Sign-ups open soon. Book a demo and we'll show you around.
