Our customers love QueueAway

Real stories from teams using QueueAway to reduce walk-outs, calm busy spaces, and keep customers informed.

★★★★★
"We received such positive feedback from the brand, agency and so many customers — it has honestly been such a game changer for us."
Jess Heath Marketing Assistant, Body, Hair & Sun
Space NK
★★★★★
"I saw a new face walk in and turn right around when they saw how many people were waiting. We were losing new clients — and risking regulars too. Since introducing a queue management system for barbershops, clients can join the queue and go grab a coffee instead of standing around. It's easy for everyone — and our regulars have grown massively."

★★★★★
"The biggest difference is how calm the venue feels. People aren't crowded by the entrance — and staff get fewer 'how long left?' questions because the updates are clear."

Questions? Sorted.

Everything people ask before using QueueAway.

What is QueueAway?
A virtual queue or virtual waiting room for walk-in businesses. Customers join from their phone, see their place in line, and get notified when it's their turn — no app download, no standing around.
Do my customers need to download an app?
No. Customers join the queue from a link or QR code that opens straight in their phone's browser. Your team doesn't need extra hardware either — everything runs from a tablet, laptop, or phone you already have.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at £14.99/month, with a £19.99/month tier for larger or multi-location setups. No setup fees, and you can start with a free trial before paying anything. Virtual waiting rooms are priced individually due to SMS costs and tailored bespoke emails and branding.
Can I try it before committing?
Yes — every plan starts with a free trial, and you can try the check-in flow yourself first through our live demo.
Will it actually cut down no-shows?
That's the main reason most businesses switch. Customers get real-time updates on wait times instead of guessing, so fewer walk away — and fewer no-show when they're called.
Is QueueAway only for barbershops?
It started there, but it works for any walk-in-heavy business — salons, retail counters, restaurants, clinics. If people wait in a line, QueueAway can manage it. The virtual waiting room is used for large crowd handling for events.
What's the virtual waiting room?
It's the screen your customers see after they check in — their live position in line, an estimated wait, and an alert when they're up next, all in their phone's browser. It's also used for crowd handling at large events. You can try it yourself through our live demo before signing up.
How long does setup take?
Most businesses are live the same day. Sign up, set your queue name and hours, and share your check-in link or QR code — no technical setup required. The virtual waiting room needs a little longer due to customisation and branding.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, there's no lock-in contract. Cancel whenever you like from your account settings.
