Why physical queues cost booths sales

  1. Blocked Passageways & Crowd Chaos

    Long physical lines clog booth entrances, block product displays, and annoy neighboring exhibitors at busy trade shows.

  2. Lost Sales from Walkaways

    High-value customers leave when they see long queues because they do not want to waste time standing in line.

  3. Manual Staff Calling Errors

    Staff shouting queue numbers or using paper waiting lists creates noise, confusion, and missed customer turns.

  4. Lack of Queue Analytics

    Event managers have no clear data on total visitors served, average customer wait times, or peak crowd hours.

Try it yourself

Join the queue

Type your name and join. Visitors do not have to stand in line. They get a message when it is their turn.

Your flight plan

A simple 4-step virtual queue workflow for events.

  1. 1

    Hardware setup & branding

    We set up your self-service touch kiosks, wireless calling tablets, thermal printers, and branded landing page with your event key visual.

  2. 2

    Visitors register mobile number

    Visitors enter their phone number at the kiosk or scan a QR code on their phone to join the virtual queue.

  3. 3

    Receive ticket & explore booth

    A ticket number is sent via WhatsApp or SMS (and printed if selected), allowing visitors to walk around comfortably while waiting.

  4. 4

    Staff call turn via tablet

    Staff tap Next on their tablet, sending an instant WhatsApp notification to the visitor while updating the overhead TV screen.

A closer look at the process

WhatsApp turn alerts, one-tap calling, live queue screens

  1. Instant WhatsApp & SMS Turn Alerts

    Visitors receive automatic mobile notifications when it is their turn, eliminating the need for staff to shout numbers.

  2. 1-Tap Wireless Staff Tablet

    Booth crew use responsive tablets to call the next number, recall absent visitors, or skip missed tickets instantly.

  3. Overhead Queue Display Screens

    Keep the booth organized by displaying live serving numbers and promotional video ads on large TV or LED screens.

  4. Runs on Devices You Already Have

    The queue runs in a browser on any existing tablet, Smart TV or PC, so there is no special hardware to buy.
