About LineBlink

Replace the waiting line with the freedom to wait anywhere.

LineBlink was designed to help walk-in businesses eliminate physical waiting lines and improve the customer experience. Customers join by QR code or link, wait wherever they want, and receive SMS notifications as their turn approaches.

Public check-in

Who uses LineBlink

LineBlink is for any business that needs a better way to manage customer waits, including barbershops and nail salons, auto services, pet grooming salons, food trucks and pop-ups, buy-sell-trade retail, and tattoo and piercing studios.

How estimates work

Estimated wait ranges use recent service durations, current line order, party size, bookings, and available capacity. Fallback service durations are used when a line lacks enough history.
