From July 3 to 12, 2026, more than a million guests will pour into our city for the Calgary Stampede, the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth. For ten days, Stampede Park, downtown bars, and pop-up tents across the city will transform into one giant celebration of cowboy and cowgirl culture, live music, and good old-fashioned Calgary hospitality.
Identity theft is no longer just a consumer problem. It is now the primary weapon thieves use to steal freight, and if your operation still relies on someone eyeballing a driver's license at the dock, you are playing defense against a threat your current process was never built to stop.
Handheld ID scanners give businesses the flexibility to verify identity anywhere, such as festival gates, on construction sites, behind the bar, or anywhere a fixed scanner isn't practical. The best ones combine durable hardware, long battery life, fast processing, and reliable connectivity with a powerful ID validation platform behind them.
