How it works

Step 1

Joining the wait

Attendees can join the wait in one of three ways. Each of these options can be turned on or off and configured to meet your preferred workflow.

QR Code
Kiosk or Tablet
Conference App or Website

Attendees scan a QR code displayed on signage at the event. Your unique QR code routes them to a simple form to join the wait.
Present the form on a device so attendees can add themselves to the wait from your kiosk or tablet.
NextMe can be seamlessly integrated into your conference app so that attendees can join the wait from the exhibitor profile.

Step 2

The waiting experience

The attendee receives a confirmation text with a web link to your fully customizable Virtual Waiting Room (VWR) while they wait. This page can be easily configured to meet the unique goals of your event.

Step 3

The ready experience

A staff member clicks “Notify” to send an SMS text to the attendee letting them know their service is ready.

The attendee can cancel or confirm directly from the text message so there’s no need for attendees to download another app.
