A Hobart tattoo studio lives on walk-in trade — and loses it the moment the wait feels uncertain. During walk-in and flash-day queues, flash days turn into a crowded, first-come chaos nobody can track. NowServing is the virtual queue for tattoo studios: it shows your real wait, lets someone in for a walk-in piece or flash join the line from their phone, and buzzes them the moment it's their turn. In Hobart's compact centre, a client who leaves your queue is at your competitor in two minutes flat.
Start free →See the live demoA QR on your door or a link in your bio opens your live wait — no app, no account.
Name in, and they see their spot and an honest ETA built from your real artist times.
A "you're up" ping (plus a ~15-min heads-up) brings them back the moment you're ready.
Everyone joins one clear digital line — no clipboard, no arguments.
Clients grab food and come back when buzzed instead of camping in the studio.
A review ask fires after each piece — the social proof that books the next client.
The reason tattoo studios stick with it: on any paid plan, the customer's phone gets an automatic "you're up" buzz the second it's their turn, plus a "~15 minutes to go" heads-up. It's free web-push — no SMS, no per-text cost, and no app to download — and it works on Android and iPhone. That's what turns a glance-and-leave into a come-back-and-buy.
Does it work for a small Hobart tattoo studio?
Yes — one artist or six, it's the same one-line setup. Most shops are live the same afternoon.
Do my clients need an app?
No. It's a web link they open from your QR, bio or website. Nothing to install, for you or them.
What does it cost?
Free to start (live wait + review link). The Regular — which adds the auto-notify and review engine — is from $49/mo billed yearly (2 months free), or $59 monthly. Cancel anytime.
