A QR code is all it takes to join the line
With LineMarshal, one QR code turns any entrance into a self check-in station. Customers scan it with their phone camera, enter a name, and they are in the queue. No app, no kiosk, no front-desk bottleneck.
No credit card. Live in under five minutes.
The QR code is the whole front door. Print one stand, place it at your entrance, and every customer who walks in can add themselves to the line in a few seconds using the camera they already have open all day.
Because check-in is self-service, your front desk stops being the bottleneck. Staff spend their time serving people instead of writing names on a clipboard, and the line stays accurate because customers manage their own entry.
How it works
Scan in. Text through. Dashboard in control. Book if you want a time.
Scan to join
Customers point their phone camera at a printed QR stand and they are in line. No app to download, no account to create, no kiosk to buy or maintain.
Texted when ready
A heads up text lands as their turn approaches, then a final alert says come back. People wait in the car, run an errand, or grab a coffee instead of crowding your lobby.
Run it from any browser
Staff watch the live queue, call the next person, and reorder on the fly. A lobby TV shows positions so the room stays calm and nobody asks how much longer.
Appointments in the same line
On the Max plan the same scan can book a time. Customers pick a named provider and a slot for later today, or join the walk-in line, and both land in one queue. Walk-ins fill the gaps around the booked time instead of stacking up behind it.
Appointments and walk-ins on one calendar
On the Max plan, every provider gets a live day calendar. Customers can book a same-day time with a named provider or join as a walk-in, from the same QR scan. Block out lunches and meetings, and walk-ins drop into the open gaps automatically. The wait times you show customers count those gaps, so the number on the screen always matches the room.
- A day timeline for every provider, doctor, stylist, or technician
- Block out lunches, meetings, and booked appointments in two taps
- Customers can book a same-day time with a named provider, or join as a walk-in
- Walk-ins drop onto the calendar automatically, flowing around each block
- Drag any appointment or block to a new time and the day re-flows around it
- Wait times update live and count the real gaps, so the number on the screen matches the room

Frequently asked questions
How does QR code check-in work?
You print a QR stand from your dashboard. Customers point their phone camera at it, the join page opens in the browser, they enter a name, and they are in the queue. No app download is needed.
Do I need a special QR scanner?
No. Modern phone cameras read QR codes natively, so there is nothing for you to buy. The customer simply scans and joins.
Can one QR code handle a whole location?
Yes. A single code can serve your entire location, and on the Max plan the join page then lets the customer pick a provider or choose Any Available.
