The badge
Can I use Tendro at MSFCA 2026?
Yes. Tendro reads the printed name, title and company on each badge and business card, then looks up the work email.
If your registration includes a scanner app, you can still run Tendro for the whole team and send every lead to your CRM.
Tendro doesn't pull the show's registration record. It reads what's printed on the badge; the name and company are what Tendro uses to look up the contact. The universal badge scanner explainer walks through how.
What matters here
Is Tendro worth it for a two-person MSFCA booth?
The package covers two reps, so device count isn't the reason to use it. The reason is getting each conversation into your CRM.
If the contacts you bring home from Duluth sit in a notebook until the next week, that's the gap Tendro closes. If they already reach your CRM the same day, you don't need it. Source.
The floor
Who exhibits at MSFCA 2026?
About 127 exhibitors, mostly vendors selling to Minnesota fire departments. Roughly 25 are state agencies or nonprofits.
Each 8' x 10' booth includes one 6-foot table, two chairs and meal tickets for two representatives. Electricity is $48, an extra table $31 and an extra chair $18. Source.
The cost
What does lead capture cost at MSFCA 2026?
Tendro is $499 for your whole booth team at MSFCA 2026, every rep on their own phone, with each lead sent to your CRM.
If the organizer sells a scanner, ask for its per-device price and compare it with one fee for the whole team. One $499 event covers unlimited reps and scans. The per-event vs annual pricing guide shows when each model wins.
Before the show
How do you get set up before MSFCA 2026?
Email hello@tendro.com with code TENDRO-MSFCA. We set up your event and team, then connect your CRM on a 15-minute call.
On the call we invite your reps, map your CRM fields and scan a few old badges and business cards at your desk, so you see what Tendro reads and finds before MSFCA 2026 opens.
On the floor, if the hall WiFi drops, scans wait on the phone and sync when the signal returns. The offline capture write-up covers how.
Straight answer
Is Tendro the official lead capture app for MSFCA 2026?
No. Tendro is an independent app your booth runs on its own phones; it doesn't depend on the show's own system.
