The skip-the-line platform
People already wait at your door. Hot Seat lets them pay to skip ahead — and you keep the money. Free to set up. Works for any venue.
No credit card · No subscriptions · Live in 5 min
Whether it's a 45-minute restaurant wait or a 5-hour pop-up queue, a portion of those people would pay $20–40 to skip ahead.
Add your restaurant, event, or pop-up. Set your skip pass price and how many you want to sell. Done in minutes.
Display it at the door, add it to your socials, or text the link. Customers scan to join your line or waitlist — no app needed.
Customers see their position and wait time. Those who don't want to wait can buy a skip pass — you earn on every sale.
