A waiting room, visible wherever customers wander off to

A branded page that updates in real time as the queue moves. Customers grab a coffee, browse nearby shops, or wait in the car, and still know exactly where they stand.

How your waiting room works

Once a customer checks in, they get a personal page that tracks their spot in the queue. It updates automatically as the line moves, no refreshing, no walking up to staff to ask.

Step 1: Check-in

Step 1: Check-in

Customers join from their phone by scanning a QR code, clicking a link, or checking in at your kiosk. No app needed.

Step 2: Waiting room

They land on a live page showing their position and estimated wait.

Notified when it's their turn

Notified when it's their turn

One tap from your team sends a message by SMS, WhatsApp, or email. They get a clear signal, you get a smooth handoff.

Customize the entire waiting experience

  • Your branding
    Logo, colors, and cover image carried through the waiting room, so it looks like part of your business, not a generic tool.
  • Personalize the fields
    Decide do enable and show names, group size or any custom preference.
  • Notifications
    Customers pick SMS, WhatsApp, or email. You decide when they hear from you: on join, when it's their turn, or both.
