In many cases, exhibitors and sponsors are key financial engines of events; they generate a significant portion of the revenue that makes events possible. But with companies being increasingly careful about their budgets, providing a seamless, high-value exhibitor experience is more critical than ever. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the Exhibitor Portal, a powerful new solution that streamlines exhibitor staff registration and housing management and unlocks greater event revenue potential by enhancing exhibitor value.
Leveraging a True Event Platform
Streampoint is uniquely able to deliver this functionality as we offer both a full-featured registration platform (Vervada) and a housing management solution (Resiada). The Exhibitor Portal seamlessly connects these two systems, giving event organizers and exhibitors unparalleled efficiency, accuracy, and visibility.
Linking registration and housing simplifies adherence to the parameters set in both instances – eliminating confusion, accelerating the speed at which an exhibitor can sign up 100’s of staff members, and ensuring exhibitors book within the organizer’s preferred hotel blocks.
How the Exhibitor Portal Works
The Exhibitor Portal makes managing exhibitor logistics intuitive and efficient:
✅ Streamlined Staff Registration and Management
Exhibitor main contacts can register booth staff with real-time allotment updates pulled directly from Vervada. Plus, exhibitors can now resend confirmation emails instantly — no more “I didn’t get my email” headaches.
✅ Integrated Housing Management
Book hotel rooms for booth staff within assigned hotel blocks. Flexible payment options allow for multiple credit cards tied to different departments or cost centers. Like registration, housing confirmations can also be resent directly from the portal.
✅ Customer Invitations & Pass Management
Exhibitors can invite customers and track registrations seamlessly. They can also resend invitations and purchase additional passes — increasing attendance and generating more revenue for the event.
✅ Single Sign On
The Exhibitor Portal was built with integrations in mind. For example, exhibitors can click a link from their Map Your Show dashboard and instantly log in to the portal with all of their allotments carried through.
✅ Real-Time Reporting
Event organizers can track exhibitor registrations, housing data, and financials in one place; exhibitors can easily take care of their staff and ensure everyone is registered and has housing.

Unlocking New Revenue Opportunities
The Exhibitor Portal isn’t just about efficiency. It opens up significant new revenue streams:
— Ad Space in the Portal. Organizers can sell ad space to sponsors, offering placement for promotions like “Sponsor a Session” or “Sponsor the Wi-Fi.”
— Customer Invitations. The ability for exhibitors to invite more customers directly drives attendance and creates new revenue opportunities.
— Premium Placement & Upsells. Organizers can offer paid options for premium booth locations or enhanced visibility in the portal.
— Platinum Sponsor Recognition. Use the portal to highlight major sponsors, driving greater brand visibility for them and igniting some competitive spirit among your sponsor base.
