Built in South Africa, for shows all around the world

Every visitor, every stand, one scan away.

A branded show app your visitors open by scanning a QR code at the gate. No download, no sign-up. In seconds, they see your map, find any exhibitor, toilet or exit, and get reminders for the demos and talks they care about.

PuntIt 2027 is a made-up show with fictional exhibitors. Open it on your phone.

Show day today

The paper map is out of date before the gates open.

Big shows are hard to navigate. ShowConnexion puts the whole show in every visitor's pocket.

Without it

  • Visitors walk in circles looking for one stand, a clean toilet or the way back to the car.
  • Exhibitors go home with a fishbowl of business cards and no idea how many people visited.
  • A 14:00 demo draws a small crowd because nobody knew it was happening.
  • Organisers fly blind when planning next year's layout and stand prices.

With ShowConnexion

  • Any stand, toilet, food stall or exit in three taps or fewer, with step-by-step directions.
  • Every stand scan is counted, so exhibitors can prove the value of their stand.
  • Reminders fill the seats at the demos and talks visitors chose.
  • Footfall and search data to plan layouts and price stands.
How it works

Show day, in four acts.

Visitors need only their phone camera. Everything else happens in the browser.

I
Act one

Scan the gate QR code

Your show opens in the phone's browser, with your branding. One tick to accept your terms.

II
Act two

Find the way

Map, search and walking directions to any stand, toilet, exit or stage, even with no signal.

III
Act three

Scan stands

Each scan opens the exhibitor's page and Show Specials, and is counted for the exhibitor.

IV
Act four

Never miss a thing

Reminders for the events they chose, emergency help one tap away, and a quick rating at the end.

Your show, your brand

Your name in lights. Not ours.

Your logo, colours, fonts, categories and wording run through the whole app, and the icon visitors save to their home screen is yours too.

Backstage, for organisers

You run the show. We keep the lights on.

One console for your team and your exhibitors, with the safety tools a big crowd needs.

Messages to every visitor

Weather, programme changes and announcements, sent now or scheduled, to everyone or one group.

Emergency mode

An evacuation, weather or lost-child alert on every visitor's phone in seconds, with a second confirmation step and every alert logged.

Know what happened

Anonymous visitor counts, busiest stands, what visitors searched for, star ratings, and a post-show report for your board and sponsors.

Exhibitors do their own pages

Each exhibitor keeps their profile, products, Show Specials and events up to date, and prints their own stand QR card.

New income for your show

Sell premium listings, featured events and sponsored map pins. You set the prices and keep the income.

A go-live checklist

The show won't launch until your emergency numbers have been checked.

What everyone gets

One app, three audiences.

Organisers

  • A branded show app without building one
  • Fewer "where is…?" questions at the info desk
  • No WhatsApp message costs: the app never sends WhatsApp messages

Exhibitors

  • A tamper-proof stand QR code that counts every visitor
  • Show Specials, with an optional sign-up for visitors who want them
  • A live dashboard and proof of return

Visitors

  • A live map of the whole show, even with no signal
  • Step-by-step walking directions, with a step-free option
  • Emergency help one tap away, at all times

Scans are anonymous. A visitor's details reach an exhibitor only when the visitor chooses to sign up (POPIA).
