Overview

Buying style: Self-serve How we compare

QueueAway is a virtual queue for any business where people line up, and a restaurant door is one of them. It is a walk-in tool: a guest scans a QR code or taps a link, joins from their own phone and waits wherever they like. Staff run a business app on a phone or tablet, with a live view of the queue and an estimated wait for each guest.

When the Friday crowd builds, the host calls the next party and the guest is notified in the app, by SMS or by WhatsApp. The vendor describes unlimited walk-ins and unlimited staff accounts on the entry plan, and optional waiting room screens appear on its healthcare pages. There is no recorded reservations module, table map or POS link, so think of it as a line manager rather than a full host stand.

Pricing is public for the entry plan. Solo Site is 14.99 pounds a month in the UK or 19.99 dollars a month internationally, billed monthly with no long-term contract. Multi Site, with one dashboard for several locations, and Custom App, a white-label option, are price on request. A 14-day trial needs no card, and you start from the sign-up page without a call. No message allowance or per-message price is published, so for a busy restaurant send volume is the number to ask about.
