For your guests

Waiting for a table without standing for it

When everything is full, the guest joins the list, sees how many parties are ahead of them, and follows their position from their phone. You call them when a table frees up.

  • No more queue at the door and no more paper book
  • The guest sees their position and waits without chasing the host
  • You know at any moment how many covers are waiting
  • No-shows are on record instead of holding a table

The guest joins knowing what they are in for

Before even giving a name, the guest sees how many parties are ahead. They decide to stay or come back later, instead of leaving out of uncertainty.

Their position updates on its own

The guest keeps the page open on their phone and watches their position move. When you call them, the screen turns to "it's your turn" — no more shouting a name across the room.

Position recalculated continuously
Every party seated moves everyone up a place.
Waiting time shown
How long they have been waiting is on screen, which heads off the chasing.
Notified when called
Their screen changes the moment you move them to "called".
Leaving the list
If they give up, the guest removes themselves and frees their place in the queue.

A clear run of play on the floor

Every entry follows a simple path the whole team can see. On a busy night, that is what prevents the confusion over who has arrived, who has been called and who never came.

Four states
Waiting, called, seated, no-show — in one gesture.
Back to waiting
A guest who turns up later takes their place back without being re-entered.
Counters per state
How many parties are waiting and how many are called stays at the top of the list.
Per establishment
Each branch has its own queue, with its own covers.

Frequently asked questions

Is the guest sent an SMS when it is their turn?

No, the call appears on the page they kept open on their phone. So plan on calling out to them as well if they stayed nearby.

Can we add someone who has no phone?

Yes. Your host adds the entry by hand with the name and party size; it is then followed from your dashboard.

Does the waiting list work alongside bookings?

The two are independent and switch on separately. Plenty of establishments keep bookings for the evening and the waiting list for lunch service.
