OppAccred is a sports accreditation and access management system that allows event organisers to manage and control who can access venues, competition zones, media areas, and restricted spaces.
It provides a digital workflow for handling accreditation applications, approvals, badge production, and reporting in a secure cloud environment.
OppAccred is designed for:
• Professional sports leagues
• National and international federations
• Tournament organisers
• Broadcasters and media operations teams

Badge Creation – Custom badges are generated with photos, roles, access zones, and branding.
Event Access Control – Accreditation data is available for on-site verification.
Reporting & Compliance – Organisers generate reports for auditing and operational review.
