Overview

Allgood Waitlist is an iPad, iPhone and Chrome waitlist app that texts guests, estimates waits automatically and also handles reservations. Public pricing starts at $39.99 a month, with no contract and self-serve signup.

Buying style: Self-serve How we compare

Picture a Friday walk-in rush. Guests ask for a table, and you need a list that tells them when to come back without anyone shouting names. Allgood Waitlist is built for that moment. A host can add a party, or guests can add themselves from an iPad station at the door or by scanning a QR code with their phone. The app puts an automatic wait estimate on each party.

When a table opens, the guest gets a text. They can reply to cancel or ask for more time, which spares the host a call. Reservations sit in the same app, so the list of waiting parties and the list of bookings live side by side. It runs on iPad, iPhone and the Chrome browser, and the data syncs between devices at the host stand and the bar.

Pricing is public and signup is self-serve. Premium is $39.99 a month for 4,000 messages, Ultra is $79.99 for 8,000 and Unlimited is $139.99. The allowance resets monthly on your billing date, and the overage rules are not stated. The site says there is no contract and you can cancel or restore at any time. The first 200 notifications are a free trial, not a free plan. The prices sit in an image on the pricing section. No POS link is recorded, so plan on running it next to your register.
