WaitYa

For service counters and customer service

Free queue system for customer service counters, without a pricey ticket machine

Visitors get a number and follow their turn on their phone. The TV display announces the number and the counter aloud, using the phone, tablet, and TV you already have.

Core queue features are free, with no time limit.

The problem

What usually happens while visitors wait

  • Queue ticket machines are expensive and hard to move.

  • Visitors crowd in front of the counter.

  • Calls by voice aren't heard in a busy room.

  • Visitors don't know which counter to go to.

How it works

Three steps to calmer waiting for visitors

  1. Take a number

    The staff makes a number, or prints a ticket on a thermal printer.

  2. Follow on the phone

    Visitors scan a QR to see their place, and can sit anywhere.

  3. Call to a counter

    The staff presses Call and picks the counter. The TV display announces the number and the counter.

FAQ

Questions about counter and customer service queues

How do I manage a service counter queue?

To run a counter queue without a ticket machine, use a web-based queue management system. With WaitYa, the staff calls from a phone or tablet, visitors follow their turn by QR, and a TV becomes the calling display, with voice.

Can several counters call at once?

Yes. Several phones or tablets can sign in to the same account, and each call picks its counter.

What kind of TV do I need?

The TV display is a web page, so it opens on any smart TV with a browser, or on a regular TV connected to a laptop.

Do I need a printer?

No. Visitors can follow their number on their phone by QR. A thermal printer is only for paper tickets.
