More flexible waiting with an assisted path still available
Digital and staff-assisted entry coexist while accessibility, procurement, privacy, and compliance requirements remain deployment-specific.

People who cannot or prefer not to self-join can be added by staff.
Private customer status
The visitor sees their own journey rather than a public name list.
Location-specific service
Queues remain attached to the correct office and operating context.
