See PoolQ in Action
Walk through every section of the platform, from the owner's dashboard to the player's mobile experience.
Live Dashboard
Real-time visibility into every table on your floor.
See which tables are in play, which need cleaning, and exactly how long each session has been running, all at a glance. Rate adjustments and promo pricing update live so you always know what's being charged.
- Live status cards for every table (Available, Occupied, Needs Cleaning)
- Active session timers with real-time elapsed time
- Promotional rate overlays that update automatically
- Tables grouped by resource type (Pool, Shuffleboard, etc.)
- Quick-glance active & dirty counters in the header
- One-click session management directly from each card
Waitlist & Queue
Fill tables faster with automated SMS notifications.
Patrons scan a QR code to join the queue from their phone. When a table opens, PoolQ sends an automatic text and starts a 3-minute claim timer. If they don't show, the next person in line is notified instantly. Zero dead time.

- 3-minute claim countdown with auto-expiration
- Party size tracking and resource type preferences
- Printable QR poster with customizable heading & logo
- Real-time waitlist view with status badges (Waiting, Texted, Confirmed)
Resource Management
Organize tables, set rates, and track daily revenue.
Define resource types (Pool Tables, Shuffleboard, Darts), set hourly rates for each, and manage your full table inventory. The resources page doubles as a revenue tracker, showing today's earnings per table in real time.
