Digital queue: skip the paper ticket

FaiLaFila is GrowFlow Booking's digital queue: it turns a physical line into a virtual queue. Customers scan a QR code, join the line from their phone, and see their live position and estimated wait time. No more paper tickets, no more crowding at the counter.

  • Print-and-stick QR code: no app to download for customers
  • Live position in line and estimated wait, updated in real time
  • Call the next customer with one tap from the dashboard
  • Queue opens and closes automatically based on your hours
  • For restaurants, street food, markets, counters and offices
  • Embed it in your site or use it as a standalone page

How the QR queue works

The customer scans the QR code displayed at the counter or entrance and joins the line from their phone browser, with nothing to install. From that moment they see their position and a self-updating wait estimate. You call the next person with one tap from the dashboard, and every phone in the queue updates instantly thanks to real-time WebSocket updates.

Goodbye paper tickets

The digital queue replaces the paper number roll and the standing wait at the counter. People can step away, take a walk and come back when it's their turn, because they follow the line from their phone. Less crowding, less wasted paper, fewer arguments about who came first.

Built for restaurants, street food and markets

It's ideal for high-traffic settings where you don't book a time but get in line: walk-in restaurants, food trucks and street vendors, market stalls, ice-cream shops, counters and public offices. Open the queue when you start serving and it closes itself outside your set hours.

One platform: queue, bookings and payments

The queue is a feature of GrowFlow Booking, not a separate product. The same account handles walk-in queues, calendar appointments with Google sync and, where needed, payments at booking time. One tool for the whole customer flow, instead of three different services to pay for and wire together.

Embed it anywhere

You can use the queue page as is (just the QR), or embed it in your site with the React widget, a script tag or an iframe. There's also a REST API if you want to connect the queue to your own system. The widget is white-label: it shows your brand, not ours.
