| Area | Ask every vendor | The Digital Key |
|---|---|---|
| Guest access | Which devices and fallback paths work? | Browser guest page without an account. Test compatible phones and cards. |
| Retrieval | Show the workflow and measured results. | Requests, target pickup times, and status updates. Estimates are not guarantees. |
| Client systems and payments | Name supported systems, providers, and limits. | Free, flat, or hourly amounts. Pay at the desk; online payments are not connected. |
| Custody and access | Show roles, records, and client or site boundaries. | Keychain and hook records, card-checked handover, and session history. Review access needs. |
| Commercial terms | List hardware, support, fees, and exit terms. | Scope, availability, and terms must be agreed. |
