LiveScan360 · Academy

Learn the live scan business before you buy the hardware

A free launch course: 22 modules, short quizzes, and a final test. How the money works, what authorization takes, which equipment is certified, and how to reach a sustainable first year—especially in Florida.

Who it is for

Built for people deciding whether to open a desk

Academy is the launch playbook—not day-to-day LiveScan360 training. If you already run volume on a legacy vendor, start with experienced operators instead.

  • First-time operators

    You want a capture desk from scratch: hardware, software, channels, and a path to first revenue.

  • Existing print shops

    You already roll ink or print cards and want electronic live scan without a decade-old stack.

  • Adjacent businesses

    Notary, security, healthcare staffing, or a licensing school adding fingerprinting as a desk service.

  • Mobile operators

    You plan to go to employers, schools, and events—and still need legal channels and certified capture.

How it works

Read, quiz, save—then open a desk

Work at your own pace. An Academy profile stores your last module and quiz results. It is not a LiveScan360 provider login.

  1. 01

    Read one module at a time

    Short pages on the business: what live scan is, how Florida money splits, authorization, equipment, and year one.

  2. 02

    Check yourself with a quiz

    Every lesson ends with a short quiz. The last module is a final test—pass with 8 of 10 or better.

  3. 03

    Save progress, then go live

    A free Academy profile remembers where you left off. It is not a provider account. Book a call when you are ready to open.

What you will walk away with

The business, not a product demo

Finish the course knowing whether live scan is a real business for you—and what to buy, authorize, and price before the first customer sits down.

  • How live scan revenue actually splits—agency pass-through vs your rolling fee
  • What it costs to open, and what is hardware vs software vs authorization
  • How state and FBI channels work before you buy a scanner
  • A first-year checklist you can share with a partner or lender
