What is a digital take-a-number system?

A digital take-a-number system lets customers join a queue without paper tickets or physical lines.

Instead of pulling a printed number, customers take a number digitally via website, kiosk, tablet, or screen. They receive a clear place in line and wait comfortably while staff manage the queue from a simple interface.

Visit status page will show your visitors various updates on their wait

No paper tickets

Eliminate printed numbers completely. Customers take a number digitally, and staff never deal with lost, duplicated, or skipped tickets.
