Illustrative estimate. Excludes refunds, taxes, and add-ons. Actual results vary by venue.
Break-even can happen with just a few paid requests per week.
Based on real operator economics — actual results vary by venue.
Music shouldn't kill your floor.
Every operator knows the routine — and how much it costs.
Guests beg the DJ
Constant interruptions, awkward tips, the same five songs on loop.
Music goes stale
Bluetooth playlists die by 9pm. Energy drops. Tabs close earlier.
Revenue left on the table
Guests would gladly pay for their song. You have no way to take it.
From QR scan to dance floor in 60 seconds.
1. Scan
Guests scan your venue's branded QR code from a table tent or the display.
2. Request
They search any song, pick one, and pay through secure embedded checkout.
3. Play
Paid requests appear in the DJ dashboard in real time. Track plays. Crowd cheers.
Built for the people who run the night.
New high-margin revenue
Guests already ask for songs. VenueTunes gives them a way to pay — and you keep the rest after processing and your flat seat.
Less booth interruption
Requests go into a clean dashboard instead of being shouted at the DJ.
Better guest engagement
Guests watch the screen, follow the queue, and stay invested in the night.
Venue-controlled experience
Block songs, filter explicit content, set prices, open/close sessions, and skip/refund when needed.
No hardware commitment
Use your existing TVs, tablets, QR stands, and payment processor setup.
