What it does

SMS-only waitlist for businesses operating at capacity limits with no app to download. Retailers, daycares, restaurants, events, and more can track visitors entering their business or interacting with their staff in curbside transactions.

Safely open your storefront to customers with Awaiting's simple text-driven waitlist.

Awaiting allows your customers to wait wherever is most comfortable for them and safe for your business. Don’t leave them out in the rain. With SMS updates and notifications, they can wait in their cars or a few minutes away. Each of your storefronts gets a unique phone number that automatically handles customer text messages. Instantly see customers waiting to come into your business. Click one button to allow them in or reject them. Easy peasy. Direct your customers to text the number when they arrive through an easy-to-use QR code or a number to text. When a customer arrives they simply text your personal number to join the waitlist. We automatically respond with your unique instructions…from awaiting.app
