Why Novi + ExpoGenie
SSO + QuickBooks sync
Built for Apartment Associations

Member-only access enforced automatically
One source of truth
Novi stays the hub; ExpoGenie powers the experience
Built for apartment associations running trade shows
If your team is small, your event is big, and you’re tired of reconciling booth sales across systems, this integration is for you.
What associations typically struggle with:
-
Exhibitors get stuck between multiple logins and email-based access steps
-
“Member-only” rules get messy (staff ends up manually verifying)
-
Payments post, but line items don’t reconcile cleanly
-
Booth assignments and upgrades live in spreadsheets because syncing is unreliable
-
Finance needs Novi/QBO to stay accurate, but events need speed + guardrails
1. Single Sign-On + Membership Verification
Exhibitors can access the ExpoGenie portal using their Novi credentials, and ExpoGenie automatically recognizes membership status.
Why this matters
-
Less friction = more completed booth purchases
-
No duplicate accounts or “which email did I use?” chaos
-
Member-only exhibitor access enforced consistently (no manual policing)
Why This Matters
Exhibitors get a modern “pick → pay → confirm” experience
Your team spends less time fixing booth errors and chasing payments
2. Booth Selection + Checkout inside ExpoGenie
Exhibitors select booths (with rules + guardrails) and complete checkout in one flow.
Supports real-world line items:
-
Booth fee
-
Corner / premium upgrades
-
Additional booth reps
-
Sponsorships (optional)
3. Itemized Financial Sync to Novi + QuickBooks
ExpoGenie passes transaction details back so Novi/QuickBooks can stay the system of record.
Key value: itemization, not lump sums.
Instead of one generic payment amount, the transaction can be broken down into meaningful event line items (booth, upgrades, reps, etc.).
Why finance teams love it
-
Clean reconciliation
-
Fewer manual adjustments
-
Accurate reporting by event and revenue category
Why This Matters

Novi remains the “single source of truth”
-
Staff can run reports and answer questions without jumping systems
-
Less risk of data drift across tools
4. Event & Exhibitor Data Written Back to Novi
When an exhibitor purchases, key details are written back to the correct event record in Novi.
Examples of data you can sync
-
Event identifier
-
Exhibitor company + contact(s)
-
Booth number(s)
-
Items purchased + amounts
-
Payment/invoice references
