Frequently Asked Questions
Is WaitlistQ really free?
Yes! The free plan includes 1 waitlist with up to 100 signups, basic analytics, an embeddable widget, CSV export, and a public waitlist page. No credit card required. Upgrade to Pro ($19/mo) for unlimited waitlists, unlimited signups, advanced analytics, and priority support.
How do I add a waitlist to my website?
WaitlistQ gives you an embeddable widget — a small code snippet you paste into your HTML. It creates a beautiful signup form that matches your site. You also get a hosted public waitlist page at waitlistq.deependventures.com/w/your-slug that you can share anywhere.
Does the free waitlist tool include referral tracking?
Yes! Every person who joins your waitlist gets a unique referral link. When their friends sign up using that link, the referrer moves up in the queue. This viral loop is built into every WaitlistQ waitlist, including the free plan.
Can I export my waitlist data?
Absolutely. You can export your entire waitlist as a CSV file at any time — emails, referral counts, signup dates, and position. Your data is yours. No lock-in.
How does WaitlistQ compare to Waitlist.me or LaunchList?
WaitlistQ is purpose-built for product launches with viral growth. Unlike generic queue tools, WaitlistQ includes referral tracking, position-based urgency, milestone notifications, and weekly digests — all designed to keep your audience engaged before launch.
Do I need a developer to set it up?
No. Create your waitlist in under 2 minutes, customize the branding, and copy-paste the widget code. If you can edit HTML, you can use WaitlistQ. No coding knowledge needed beyond that.
What happens after I launch my product?
Export your waitlist to your email marketing tool (Mailchimp, ConvertKit, etc.) and send your launch announcement. WaitlistQ also supports invite-style launches where you onboard users in batches based on their waitlist position.
