ⓘ This article is for Event Organizers
When you have multiple events using the same badge shell design, an Event Owner or User has the ability to copy the shell design from one event to another. This way you don't have to redesign it every time.
Before you begin, you must have a Badge Shell created in one of your events that you will be using.
Once your shell is designed, follow the steps below.
Steps to Copy a Badge Shell
❗ Important: You can only copy badges from events that you are the Event Owner or an Event User.
Log into Expo Pass.
Select the event that already has the badge shell design you want to copy.
In the Onsite section, click Design Badges.
Select and Copy the Badge Shell
Find the badge shell you want to copy.
Hover over the shell design.
Click the Copy icon (looks like two pieces of paper).
A window will pop up with a drop down list of all the events you have access to. Select the event you want to copy the badge shell to.
Click Copy.
You’ll see a notification in the top right corner:
“[Badge Name] successfully copied.”

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Not having access to both events:
Make sure you are an Event Owner or Event User in both the source and destination events.Trying to copy without a completed shell:
You must have a finished badge shell design before you can copy it.Selecting the wrong destination event:
Double-check the event you choose from the dropdown — copied badges cannot be undone easily.Forgetting to verify the copy:
Always log into the new event and double-check that the badge shell copied correctly.
