Equipment booking
Parking booking
Access for subscriptions
To automate access for subscriptions, open Spacebring and do the following:
Navigate to Billing > Plans.
Create or edit a plan and select the desired Tapkey user group in the "Access" section.
Create a subscription manually or let users sign up for plans by themselves.
To grant access to your existing members, edit their subscription and choose the Tapkey access group. Adding or editing access takes effect immediately.

Access is granted for all future bookings only if an access group is selected or edited for the resource before the booking starts. If the booking has already begun, updated access will not be granted.
How Tapkey integration works
User synchronization to Tapkey
Users who qualify for access—based on either a subscription or a booking—are automatically synced to your Tapkey dashboard. The user's email address is synchronized.
Users need to download the Tapkey app on their device and set up their Tapkey account using the same email address they use in the member web portal or mobile app. To unlock a door, users must be physically present in front of the corresponding lock.
Access based on subscriptions
When a user obtains a subscription—whether by self-sign-up or admin allocation—they are added to a specific access group for as long as their subscription is active.
The subscription remains active from its start date until its end or cancellation date, regardless of the payment status of the member's invoices. To revoke access, schedule a subscription end, or cancel it.
When a subscription is created for a company, all users within that company are invited to use Tapkey. If the company’s subscription is canceled or expires, Tapkey access for all associated users will be revoked.
Access based on bookings
Users who make a booking are granted access to the designated access group for the entire duration of their booking. Additionally, any invitees to the room booking will also receive access.
Users will have a 30-minute grace period before and after the booking time:
Booking date & time | Access to the predetermined access group |
1/8/2024 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM | 1/8/2024 11:30 AM - 4:30 PM |
5/12/2024 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM | 5/12/2024 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM |
Disconnect the Tapkey integration
To disconnect Tapkey, follow these steps:
Go to Spacebring > Integrations page by pressing the menu (...) next to the location's name > Tapkey.
Press
Disconnect
and confirm your choice.
When the integration is disconnected, access will not be granted for future bookings or subscriptions. Any access already granted remains active and must be revoked manually through the Tapkey dashboard.
