Reward students for being present.
NIX is a phone-free events platform for schools. Students earn instant coupons for staying off their phones at events, staff scan student ID badges to verify attendance, and you run it all from one dashboard.
One platform, two ways to go phone-free.
Reward presence at events, run a simpler phone-free school day, or both — same app, same dashboard.
Reward presence
Students choose to leave their phones behind and earn instant coupons for showing up present. Positive reinforcement — no confiscation, no friction.
A simpler phone-free school
A lower-cost, no-pouch alternative to lockable phone bags. NIX helps your school enforce and verify a phone-free day — without buying, distributing, and replacing a pouch for every student.
Verified presence, automatic rewards.
Three steps. No new hardware, no manual attendance, no honor system to police.
Students join
Students download the NIX iOS app and sign up with their school student ID. Setup takes seconds.
They leave the phone behind
Students leave their phone in the car or locker. The NIX app reports the phone's location, and a per-event geofence confirms the phone is away — real presence, not the honor system.
Rewards happen automatically
Whoever's running the scanner — staff or student volunteers — scans the student's ID badge at the event, confirms the phone's away, and hands them their reward coupon.
Everything to run rewarded, phone-free events.
Built for the administrator who has to make it actually work on the night — not just look good in a pitch deck.
Native iOS app
One app for students and a built-in scanner mode for whoever runs the door — staff or student workers. No extra hardware to buy or maintain.
Geofenced verification
Presence is confirmed by location, not trust. Set a per-event fence and let NIX handle who counts.
Real-time analytics
Track turnout, engagement, and trends across events from a single admin dashboard.
Reward coupons
Hand students a reward coupon when they check in phone-free. On-the-spot printing is built in for when you want it.
Seat-based team management
Invite sub-admins to help manage events. Scanning runs off the event code, so staff or student workers can run the door without using a seat.
Works with existing student IDs
Scans the barcode on the badge students already wear. No new cards to print, no QR codes to design — day-one rollout, zero hardware overhead.
More presence. Less screen time. Less work for staff.
NIX gives students a concrete reason to look up and show up — and gives your team a system that runs itself once an event starts.
- Higher event turnout
- A real reward for showing up turns optional events into ones students actually attend.
- Genuine presence
- Phone-free verification rewards students for being in the moment — together, not on a screen.
- Effortless to run
- Set up an event, hand the code to anyone running the door — staff or student workers — and let NIX verify and reward. No spreadsheets, no clipboards.
“Once we launch with NIX, this is where a quote from your athletic director or student-life lead will go.”
