Every waitlist in the world has the same hidden problem. It is full of people who would happily pay to get to the front, and the software running it has no way to let them.
That is a lot of money left at the door every single night. Today, digiQueue opens it up for every platform out there.
digiQueue is now a revenue layer you can plug into any system.
Not Another System. A Layer On Top.
Most venues already have software they like. A POS. A booking platform. A guest app. Nobody wants to rip that out, and with digiQueue, nobody has to.
Our new partner API sits behind the product you already run. Your screens stay the same. Your staff keeps the workflow they know. digiQueue adds the one thing your system was never built to do: turn the line into revenue.
Everyone Gets Paid
This is what makes the revenue layer different. It does not just pay one side. It pays everyone who touches the line.
When a guest pays to skip the wait, the payment splits three ways:
- 50% to your client, the restaurant, venue, or operator whose line it is
- 25% to you, the API partner who plugged digiQueue in
- 25% to digiQueue
(Split is negotiable per partner.)
Your clients choose to opt in. The ones who turn on priority start earning from a line they used to only pay staff to manage. And you, the platform that brought it to them, earn on every priority pass they sell, across every location, every night. No new hardware. No new app for guests. No monthly bill for your clients to switch it on.
Two Ways to Turn On Priority
Getting priority in front of guests is simple, and you choose how much you want to build:
- Add a priority toggle to your join screen. One switch on your waitlist sign-up. When a guest flips it, we hand back a payment link, and they move to the front as soon as they pay.
- Or build nothing at all. digiQueue can text guests who are already waiting a link to upgrade. They tap, pay, and jump ahead while keeping their original place in time.
Either way, the guest gets a live status page and text updates the whole time they wait.
Built for the Busiest Night of the Year
A revenue layer only works if the line is right every time. We built digiQueue to hold up when it matters most:
- Ordered by queue. Zero race conditions. Every change for a location runs in that queue's own ordered lane, one at a time. Your system, the host stand, and a guest's phone can all hit the same line in the same second, and it never comes out of order.
- Nothing happens twice. Every request is safe to retry. A dropped connection or a double tap never adds a guest twice or charges anyone twice.
- Your system always knows. Signed webhooks tell you the moment a guest joins, is called, or pays, in order, with automatic retries, and a replay if your server was ever down.
- Locked down by default. Each key reaches only the locations and actions you grant it. We store only a hash, rotating keys takes zero downtime, and a revoked key is dead within 30 seconds.
- Payments run through Stripe. Card data never touches your servers or ours.
The same platform is trusted by restaurants on their busiest weekends and was selected by the U.S. Air Force. Your clients' lines are in good hands.
Everything Else You Can Do
Priority is the headline, but the API runs the whole line:
- Add, edit, and remove guests
- Call the next guest, or a specific one
- Take reservations against real slot capacity
- Read wait times and how many guests are in each line
- Pause a location, set wait times, and set priority pricing
Each location is its own queue under one partner account, so one integration covers every client you serve.
Who It Is Built For
- POS and booking platforms that want to hand their restaurants a new revenue stream without building payments or queue logic
- Venue and guest-app platforms that want paid skip-the-line on day one
- Multi-location groups running their own software that want every location earning from its line
