Self-serve loaners that don’t rely on IT

Empower students and employees to check out a loaner in less than one minute. The intuitive kiosk system makes borrowing devices from a Smart Locker easy for both kids and adults, with the option to require acceptance of loaning terms and conditions during checkout.

Create loaner workflows, manage users, track assets, and automate assignments — all in one simple dashboard within the Portal.

Automated repairs that don’t involve the help desk

Students and employees can report a broken device directly at the ForwardPass Kiosk, drop it off in a secure bay, and move on — no waiting, no IT bottlenecks.

Tech teams receive real-time alerts, manage follow-ups, and log repair updates in the Portal.

Once fixed, the system notifies the user that their device is ready for pickup. Every step is tracked to improve accountability and reduce device downtime.

Touchless deployments made easy

IT teams can preload devices into ForwardPass Smart Lockers and assign pickup in advance — no on-site staff required. When it’s time to distribute, users simply log in or scan their ID at the ForwardPass Kiosk to collect their assigned device.

Admins can track pickup status, send notifications, and monitor inventory levels through the ForwardPass Portal. Every step is logged for full visibility, so large-scale rollouts run smoothly and without disruption.

Secure charging. No supervision required.

Users can log in at the ForwardPass Kiosk to quickly access a bay for secure device charging — no staff handoff or supervision needed.

Each bay includes a built-in 36W USB-C cable for fast, reliable power. Devices stay locked, safe, and ready to go, while IT teams can monitor charging activity, manage bay usage, and handle exceptions remotely through the ForwardPass Portal.

Fast and flexible authentication options

With the ForwardPass System, there's no need to manage a separate user database. By integrating with your existing identity management system, device users can self-authenticate right at the kiosk using SSO, RFID, barcode or QR code authentication, or other credentials they already know.

SOC 2 certified security

When you automate device access, you’re also managing real people, real devices, and real data. That’s why ForwardPass is SOC 2 certified — so schools, workplaces, and IT teams can move faster with ForwardPass while staying confident in how customer information is protected.

SOC 2 is an independent audit that evaluates whether security controls are not only designed well, but operating effectively over time.
