Guest list setup
The guest list lets people put their name down for entry rather than booking a table. This page covers the venue-wide guest-list settings; day-to-day list bookings (approving, rejecting, checking in) are handled elsewhere.
You’ll find these settings under the venue’s Guest List settings.
Turning it on
Section titled “Turning it on”A master enable switch turns the guest list on for the venue. With it off, guests can’t join a list here at all.
List access tiers
Section titled “List access tiers”List access controls which membership tier a guest needs to join. There are three tiers:
| Tier | Requires |
|---|---|
| All | Anyone can join - no membership needed. |
| Exclusive | Premium members only. |
| Super Exclusive | Premium Plus members only. |
You also choose whether the list is free or paid:
- Free list - guests join at no charge.
- Paid list - guests pay to join.
List settings
Section titled “List settings”| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Default capacity | How many people the list holds before it’s full. |
| Queue-skip price | A price guests can pay to skip the queue on arrival. |
| Max party size | The largest group one guest can add to the list. |
List surge
Section titled “List surge”List surge raises the price as the list fills up, so late joiners on a busy night pay more:
- Threshold - the point (how full the list is) at which surge kicks in.
- Price - the surged price applied beyond the threshold.
Tying it together
Section titled “Tying it together”The venue-wide settings here work alongside your reusable Guest List access profiles, which carry the per-slot detail - tier, free/paid, surge, party, policy, window, capacity and the admission rule - attached to individual access rules.
To reward specific guests with discounts, automatic approval or extra plus-ones, attach an admission rule group to the guest list’s access profile. Admission rules read client tags, booking history and social connections to decide who qualifies.
