InTimeQ — what we are, in plain sentences.

What InTimeQ is

A digital queue for any place with walk-in customers. Customers install the InTimeQ mobile app once (Android or iOS), and from then on every InTimeQ-enabled place is a single-scan experience. Vendors run the queue from their own phone. No hardware on either side.

Who InTimeQ is for

As a customer: anyone who has ever stood in a line.

As a vendor: any business with walk-in customers.

Examples of vendors using or targeted for InTimeQ:

• Clinics and hospitals (OPD, routine check-ups, paediatrics, dental)
• Banks (PSU and private, branch counters)
• Salons, barbers, and beauty parlours
• Government offices (sub-registrar, RTO, Aadhaar, passport)
• Restaurants with walk-in seating
• Telecom service centres
• Transport ticketing counters
• Tea stalls, kirana shops, small retail

Where InTimeQ runs

InTimeQ is live in India as its first market. We will open to a global audience as we grow.

How InTimeQ works for a customer

1. Scan the QR at the place you are visiting, or open a link a friend shared.
2. Get a token and a live position.
3. Leave or stay. We ping you when your turn is three ahead.
4. Arrive. Show your token. You are served.

How InTimeQ works for a vendor

1. Sign up with a phone number and an OTP.
2. Name the place.
3. Open the first queue. You get a printable QR.
4. Customers scan. Tokens appear on the operator dashboard.
5. Tap “Next” to call the front of the line.

What InTimeQ is not

• Not an appointment-booking app. Queues are ordered by arrival time.
• Not a replacement for a vendor’s system of record. It runs alongside.

Common questions (combined customer + vendor)

What is InTimeQ?

A digital queue for any place with walk-in customers — clinics, banks, salons, government offices, restaurants, shops, tea stalls. You scan a QR, you get a token number, we tell you when your turn is near, and you walk in exactly when it's your turn.

Do I need to install the app to join a queue?

Yes. InTimeQ is a mobile app — install it once from Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iOS). From then on, every InTimeQ place you visit is a one-scan experience. Think of it like Paytm: one install, every subsequent shop is just a scan.

What happens if I miss my turn?

Open the app — in most cases you can rejoin the line right away. You do not lose your spot for being a human being.

Can I leave a queue if I change my mind?

Yes. One tap to leave, with no penalty.

Will I get notified when my turn is close?

Yes. We send you a push notification when your turn is close. You can change how early we notify per queue from inside the app.

Can I see how long I'll wait?

You see your live position in the queue and an estimated wait based on how fast the counter is moving. The estimate is a guide, not a contract — real queues vary.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Both. Get InTimeQ from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android).

What if I don't have data or I'm on a slow network?

You need a working data connection to join a queue and to receive the 'your turn is near' push notification. On a slow connection the app still works — screens may load a bit slower. If you go offline for a while, open the app when you're back online to refresh your position.

Can I join more than one queue at a time?

Yes — you can hold several active tokens at once. The app shows all of them in one list.

Is my phone number safe?

Yes. We use your phone number to identify you and to send one-time passwords. We do not sell it and we do not give it to the place you're visiting. Read our privacy policy for the full picture.

How do I suggest a place to InTimeQ?

Tell us from the /join page, or write to hello@intimeq.com with the place name and city. We reach out to the vendor directly. Customer suggestions are our cheapest and most credible acquisition channel — so thank you.

What kinds of businesses use InTimeQ?

Any place where customers walk in and wait. A three-chair barber shop, a busy tea stall at a railway station, a small-town bank branch, a private clinic, a sub-registrar office, a restaurant, a telecom service centre. Scale is not the gate — the walk-in pattern is.

Do I need any hardware?

No. A phone at the counter is enough. No printer, no token dispenser, no kiosk.

Do my customers need to install anything?

Yes — one-time. Your customers install the InTimeQ app once from Google Play or the App Store. After that, every InTimeQ-enabled place they visit — yours and anyone else's — is a single-scan experience. Same pattern as Paytm: one install, every subsequent counter is a scan.

How long does it take to set up?

Typically under 60 seconds. Enter your phone number, enter the OTP, name your place, tap 'Start my queue'. You get a printable QR to stick at your counter. Your next customer scans it and you're running a queue.

Can I add walk-in customers who don't have a phone?

Yes. In two taps — name and phone — you put them in your queue. Their token appears alongside the scanners'.

Can I pause the queue for lunch or a break?

Yes. One tap pauses. The people already in the queue keep their place. New joins are blocked until you resume.

Can I have more than one queue running?

Yes. Many vendors run separate queues for different services or counters. Each queue has its own QR, its own token numbers, and can be run by a different operator.

Can my staff operate the queue from different phones?

Yes. Each operator signs in on their own phone with their own number. You decide who can start, pause, call-next, and add walk-ins.

What reports do I get?

The org dashboard shows live activity, per-property comparisons, per-operator performance, and trend charts over any date range. More depth lands with every release.

What happens if InTimeQ goes down?

Your queue is a QR and a set of notifications. If we were offline for a day, you'd go back to calling names the way you did before InTimeQ. There is no lock-in. We treat uptime as a core commitment — see our status page.

How do I get help?

In-app help, or write to hello@intimeq.com. A human reads every email. Response time is under 24 hours on weekdays.
