A Qtrac alternative without a deployment fee
Frontlion's Qtrac is priced per location plus modules, with a one-off deployment fee: for example $1,144 a month for 8 locations plus $11–14k once. QR Wait has no setup fee: you open an account and run your first queue the same day.
The first 250 tickets are free, no credit card needed.

What the models mean for you
Contracts and setup fees
No annual contract, no deployment fee and no cancellation fee. Unused tickets stay on your balance.
Several locations
Per-location plans multiply the price by the number of sites. QR Wait's tickets are one balance for all queues of an account.
When another app may fit better
- You want a vendor to plan the system and roll it out across many sites for you.
- You need SMS or WhatsApp notifications: QR Wait notifies only through Web Push.
- You want a native app from an app store for staff or visitors.
- You want kiosks and displays supplied and installed by the vendor.
Questions
- Many queues are seasonal or run for events. Tickets that never expire mean you pay for the visitors you actually serve, not for the months in between.
- Each new entry in a queue uses one ticket, however many people are in the group: a QR join, a kiosk number or one the attendant adds.
- From each vendor's public pricing page, checked in October 2026. Only published prices are listed; vendors that quote on request are marked as not published.
