A night on Foyer

From doors open to the final headcount.

Everyone at the door works from the same live list, so nobody is shouting across the room or reconciling spreadsheets at 3am.

  1. Doors open

    Tap a member to sign them in. Hold their name to add a plus one.

  2. Promoters arrive

    Scan their guests' QR codes and each promoter's tally goes up live.

  3. Booths fill up

    Booth guests and bottle service notes sit in the list the door already uses.

  4. Wind down

    Headcount, capacity and promoter pay are already worked out. Nothing to export.

The app

Built for fast decisions in a loud, dark room.

Large text, high contrast and one tap to act. Every phone on the door sees the same list, live.

Members

Members in with one tap.

Search by name or member number, tap to sign them in and hold a name to add their plus one. Suspended members show in red, so the door knows before they reach the rope.

  • Live count on every phone at the door
  • Search by name or member number
  • One tap to sign in, hold for plus ones

From the founder

“I built Foyer after watching good venues run their door on a printed list, a Sharpie and a shared note on someone's phone. It covers the parts of the night that actually need an app, and nothing else. I set up every venue myself.”
ZiggyFounder, Foyerfoyer.app.support@gmail.com

FAQ

Questions venues ask us.

Anything else, email foyer.app.support@gmail.com.

How long does setup actually take?

Ten minutes for the app itself. If you have an existing member list, allow another hour for the import, which we do with you. Most venues are running it the same night they install it.

Does it work on Android, or in a browser?

Foyer runs on iPhone and iPad, plus a web app, so the door can run it from any device with a browser.

What happens if the venue WiFi drops mid-night?

The app keeps working offline and syncs automatically when the network returns. Check-ins are never lost.

Can I import an existing member list?

Yes. CSV, Numbers, Excel, Google Sheets or a screenshot of your current list. We bring your data across as part of the included setup.

What's the difference between Essentials and Pro?

Essentials runs the door: members, guest lists, booths, birthdays and live analytics, with up to 5 staff accounts. Promoter tracking is Pro only. Pro adds promoter QR codes and live tallies, payouts and ABA bank files, texts to promoters, multiple venues, unlimited staff accounts and priority support.

Is there a contract or commitment?

No. Pay monthly, cancel any time, no exit fee. Your data is yours, and we'll send it to you as a CSV on the way out.

Ready before your next Friday.

Book a 20-minute demo and you can be running Foyer on the door the same night. Onboarding is free and there's no contract.
