Exhibitor Policies and Terms and Conditions
Visibility
There is no better way to reach the higher education credentialing/transaction market than to exhibit at the NACCU Annual Conference.
The exhibit hall will be open for nearly 6 hours of exclusive, dedicated time, offering a good flow of attendee traffic.
- Exhibitors are listed in the conference program
- Logo, company name, and URL of exhibitors are published in the NACCU 2026 mobile app
Exhibitors are listed on the exhibit hall map sign at exhibit hall entrance - One month prior to the conference, exhibitors will receive an electronic file containing contact information for conference registrants to be used for pre-conference mailings. (Attendees have the option to opt-out of inclusion in this file.)
Networking Opportunities
Exhibitors will receive one exhibit hall only pass with each booth space purchase. This badge allows access to the exhibit floor only. Additional exhibit hall badges may be purchased in advance for $250 each. In addition, we encourage at least one person from every company to register for the full conference. This enables you to learn what is happening on campuses today and helps you in preparing to meet the needs of this constantly changing marketplace.
Reasons to Exhibit at NACCU 2026
Who are the attendees at the NACCU Annual Conference?
Our attendees are the people on college and university campuses who manage the ID card program and related services, including access control, IT, security, banking, POS, off-campus merchant programs, and more.
In some cases, these programs are huge departments with many employees, and in others, there is one person who wears many hats - and everything in between. Whether your company is looking for accounts with large clients or for personal relationships with smaller institutions, there is something for you at NACCU.
Because each institution has its own structure, these programs can fall under Auxiliary Services, dining, student services, campus security, finance, or other departments.
How many individuals attend NACCU?
There are typically between 500-600 individuals in attendance.
