WaitYa

For barbershops and salons

Free barbershop and salon waitlist app, followed from the phone

Walk-in customers get a queue number, then wait over a coffee or do some shopping. When a chair is free, their number is called on their phone and on the TV display.

Core queue features are free, with no time limit.

The problem

What usually happens while customers wait

  • The waiting seats are full, so new customers walk away.

  • It isn't clear who came first.

  • Barbers have to stop cutting to answer questions.

  • Customers who step out lose their turn.

How it works

Three steps to calmer waiting

  1. A customer walks in

    Make a number with one tap. The name is optional.

  2. Wait anywhere

    Customers scan a QR and can step out. Their place shows on their phone.

  3. Call to a chair

    When a chair is free, press Call. The number and chair show on the phone and the TV display.

FAQ

Questions about barbershop and salon queues

How do I manage a barbershop or salon queue?

To manage a barbershop or salon queue, give each walk-in a queue number and let them follow their turn on their phone by QR. WaitYa calls the number and the chair, so customers don't have to sit in the waiting area.

Can customers book appointments?

Not yet. WaitYa runs a walk-in queue, not appointments.

Can customers pick a barber?

Not yet. There is one queue, and the staff picks the chair each time they call.

Do customers have to sign up?

No. Customers just scan a QR, with no account and no app to install.

More common questions are on the home page.
