One system, not three
Bookings, waitlist and takeout in one place
Most restaurants juggle a booking site, a paper waitlist and a stack of plastic pagers for pickups. Bzz does all three jobs, and they share one live view of your floor.
Reservations
Guests book on your own booking page or a widget on your website, with no per-cover commission. Bookings land on the same floor plan as your walk-ins.
How bookings workWalk-in waitlist
Add a party at the host stand or let guests join by QR or NFC. They follow their place in line, wander off, and get buzzed when the table is ready.
Takeout orders
Give a pickup customer a buzzer from the same screen. Tap ready when the bag is packed and their phone buzzes, so nobody hovers at the host stand.
One login, one floor view, one subscription.
How the Bzz Restaurant Paging System Works
Scan QR or Tap NFC
At the host stand, guests scan a code or tap an NFC tag to track their queue position live on their phones — no app download required.
See Your Specials While They Wait
While waiting, guests see branded ads for your signature cocktails, specials, and loyalty offers directly on the tracker.
Real-time Table-Ready Alert
The guest's phone vibrates and notifies them as soon as their table's ready, so they can head back and get seated.
What is a digital pager app?
Instead of handing out bulky plastic buzzers that get lost, broken, or run flat, Bzz uses a simple web page. Diners scan a QR code at your door, wander nearby, and get an alert on their phone the moment their table or order is ready.
A Restaurant Buzzer System for the Table Waitlist
At the host stand, Bzz does the job of a restaurant buzzer without the puck. The host adds the party, the guest scans the QR code (or taps the NFC tag) and follows their place in line on a live page in their own browser. When the table is ready, one tap buzzes them: a sound, a vibration and a browser notification on their phone, wherever they are waiting.
Every guest in a party can open the same buzzer, so the whole table hears it, not just whoever was holding the coaster. Comparing options first? See the best restaurant pager system guide.
An Order-Ready Buzzer for Counter Service
Burger counters, cafés and food halls use Bzz as a food order buzzer system. Take the order, hand over a buzzer by QR code instead of a plastic burger pager or beeper, and tap “ready” when it comes off the pass. The customer is buzzed on their phone and walks up to collect, so nobody crowds the counter or misses a shouted name.
It is a buzzer ordering system with no base station, no charging rack, and no cafe buzzers walking out the door. Running a truck or a festival stall? The food truck buzzer system works the same way.

What Switching to Digital Buzzers Actually Changes
No more
Lost or broken pagers
There's no hardware to walk out the door, get dropped, or stop holding charge. The pager is the phone your guest already has.
More drinks
Ordered before they sit
Show your cocktails and specials while people wait, and more of them order a round before they reach the table.
“Their support team is extremely kind and helpful. We were one of their first customers, so they spent a whole 2 hours in the restaurant helping us set up effective ads. The owner personally dropped in for a meal 3 months later to check how we were doing. I suggested a feature and within two weeks they added it to our plan free of charge. Way better than paying triple the cost for a faceless company's product. Customer for life!”
