Unincorporated ACT, ACT simplifies contact tracing in retail settings with Check In CBR app

Unincorporated ACT, ACT Check In CBR App Contact Tracing

In Progress

The app allows Canberra shoppers to check into local businesses from their phones. Registered users scan QR codes at shops to check in their parties. QR codes also allow new users to download the app. ACT Health gathers patron data in case of COVID-19 outbreaks that require contact tracing. The app was created in response to business concerns about patron crowding during check-ins at points of sale.
