The problem

A full house shouldn't mean a frantic front of house

When guests have no visibility on their wait, they crowd the door, ask staff repeatedly, or leave. Every one of those is a lost cover.

What's happening now

  • Guests hover at the door asking "how much longer?" every few minutes
  • Staff on phones taking reservations instead of looking after the floor
  • No-shows on busy nights — tables sitting empty with no notice
  • No record of wait times, no-shows, or guest messages

What ServQueue does

  • Guests track their live position from their phone — no crowding, no asking
  • SMS when their table is ready — they arrive on cue, you turn covers faster
  • Prepaid online reservations mean guests have skin in the game — no-shows drop
  • Full history of every guest wait, message, and interaction

How it works

Live in under 5 minutes

No hardware. No IT team. No training required.

1

Guest scans QR at the door

They scan a QR code with their phone camera — no app, no account. They enter their name and number and join the waitlist in under 60 seconds.

2

They watch their wait live

Their phone shows their real-time position in the queue. They can browse nearby, grab a coffee, or wait comfortably — without hovering at the door.

3

SMS when their table is ready

When you tap 'Ready', they get a text. They walk straight in. No shouting names, no pagers, no door-hovering guests blocking the entrance.

4

Book ahead with Appointments

The Appointments add-on gives you an online booking page. Guests reserve their table, pay upfront, and get automatic reminders — no no-shows, no phone calls.

💰

The feature that fills your restaurant: prepaid bookings

A no-show on a Friday night costs you a full cover. With the Appointments add-on, guests book online and pay a deposit upfront. When people have skin in the game, they show up — or cancel early enough for you to resell the table.

Frequently asked questions

Do my guests need to download an app to join the waitlist?

No. Guests scan a QR code at the door with their phone camera and a web page opens — no app, no account. They enter their name and number, see their live position, and we SMS them when their table is ready.

How does the table-ready SMS work — am I charged per text?

SMS is included in your plan: Basic 300/month, Growth 800, Pro 1,500. No per-message billing. Texts are sent via an Australian gateway so delivery is fast and reliable.

Can I take online reservations and prepayments?

Yes — the Appointments add-on (available on Growth and Pro) gives you a public booking page. Guests reserve a time, pay a deposit through Stripe, and get automatic SMS reminders. No-shows drop sharply when guests have skin in the game.

What if a guest leaves without being seated?

They can reply LEAVE to any SMS, or your floor staff can remove them from the dashboard with one tap. Either way the next party in the queue automatically moves up.

How long does setup take for a busy restaurant?

Under 5 minutes. Sign up, name your queue, print or display the QR code at your host stand. The dashboard runs on any phone, tablet, or iPad — no dedicated hardware needed.

Is my guest data stored in Australia?

Yes. All data is stored in Australia (AWS Sydney, ap-southeast-2). ServQueue is compliant with the Australian Privacy Act 2024 and your guests’ data never leaves Australian jurisdiction.
