Many owners search for "queue machine" and see $300–$1,000 price tags. For a small shop, that's hard to justify.
You already have what you need: a TV and smartphones.
What you need
- A TV or monitor with internet
- A QR code at the door
- One staff phone
Three steps

- Staff tap "Call next" on the console
