Ordering system for concerts. More drinks between sets.
Before the show and between sets, everyone heads to the bar at once. With skippr, your guests order via QR code, and your team handles up to 60% more orders per hour.*
- No fixed costs, no minimum revenue
- With or without a POS
- Temps up to speed in under 10 minutes
What’s in it for you
More sales between sets. Same team.
Before the show and between sets, you’re not short of demand, you’re short of capacity at the bar. skippr gets more orders out of the same bar, and you earn every extra order without extra staff costs.
+60%*
More orders per hour
Identical drinks are made in one round, and taking payment at the bar disappears. That counts most between sets, when many guests want the same thing.
Don’t miss a song
Guests order from where they are and pick up when the push notification arrives. If ordering doesn’t mean missing the show, they’re more likely to order.
€0
fixed costs, no minimum revenue
No setup, license or monthly fee and no minimum revenue. You only pay on nights when your guests order.
< 10 min
Temps up to speed
Your team always sees exactly the next task. Even temps who only work one night are up to speed quickly.
Worked example for your bars
If a bar handles 60 orders per hour at peak, up to 60% more means up to 96.* With four bars and a 30-minute changeover, that’s up to 72 more orders in that break alone. You know best what an order is worth to you.
Why concert bars get jammed
At a concert, demand comes in two peaks: just before the show and between sets. In between, everyone is in front of the stage.
-
Everyone at once
The support act finishes, the lights come up, and within minutes hundreds of guests are at the bars. Peak time lasts exactly one changeover.
-
Taking payment slows the bar
Every order has to be taken and paid for. That time is missing at the tap, right when the break is on.
-
Waiting in line means missing the show
If the line is too long, many would rather skip the drink than miss the start of the headliner. That order won’t come back later that night.

How it works
How skippr runs at your concert
Your guests stay in front of the stage until their drinks are ready. Your team works through a queue that skippr sorts by itself.

Playing the video loads it from YouTube. This sends data (including your IP address) to YouTube/Google.
A concert night
Two peaks decide your night.
Before the show and between sets, everyone wants to order at once; while the music is playing, hardly anyone does. Without skippr, your bar hits its limit at both peaks. With skippr, the same bar handles up to 60% more.*

7:45 pm
Just before the show
Everyone wants a quick drink before the lights go down. Guests who order via skippr don’t have to line up for it.
-
8:50 pm
Between sets
Hundreds of orders within minutes, many of them the same. skippr batches identical drinks, and your team pours in rounds instead of one ticket at a time.
-
9:30 pm
The headliner is on
Thirsty guests order from where they are and pick up when the push notification arrives. Nobody has to choose between a drink and their favorite song.
Run your bars live
Whether the changeover starts early or the lager runs out: you adjust skippr in seconds.
-
Set up stations freely
You decide which tablet sees which orders: tap, soft drinks, long drinks, together or separate. Each station has its own batching rules.
-
Every bar with its own queue
Foyer, main hall, balcony: every bar has its own queue and its own menu. Guests choose where to pick up when they order.
-
Pause and switch off
If it gets too busy at pickup, you pause new orders for a moment. If something runs out, you take it off the menu with one click.
-
Prices in one click
A special for the show or new prices for the season: you change prices instantly, without printing new menus.
-
No guest gets forgotten
You set how many orders skippr may move up at most. That way every order reliably moves forward.
-
Every booking on record
Sales, deposits and tips are stored with their own booking ID and can be exported for your accounting.
Setup and tech
Quick to set up. With or without a POS.
One tablet per station, some space for pickup and an internet connection. That’s all skippr needs at your bar.
1 tablet
per station
Set up the tablet, set up the pickup point, give your team a short training. Training takes well under a quarter of an hour.
1,000
orders per minute
That’s how many skippr can technically process at each bar. Your bar sets the limit, not the system.
With or without a POS
skippr runs alongside your POS. If you don’t want to take payments at the bar at all, skippr also runs on its own.
Important: internet at the bar. The tablets need a stable connection, ideally via Wi-Fi. If mobile reception in the venue is weak, say because of thick walls or thousands of phones on the network at once, your guests need Wi-Fi to order too. If the connection drops, no new orders come in at that moment. No solution yet? We’ll help you choose the right provider. The connection itself is not part of skippr.

FAQ: skippr at concerts
What ordering system works for concerts and concert venues?
One that handles both peaks: just before the show and between sets. Your guests order and pay via QR code, with no app, and pick up when their drinks are ready. skippr also plans the work behind the bar: it batches identical drinks, has your team prepare ahead and keeps every station busy. No fixed costs and no minimum revenue, at €0.10 per order.
We’ve tried mobile ordering before. What’s different about skippr?
Most systems only show your team a list of orders. skippr plans the work at the bar: it batches identical drinks, has your team prepare ahead and keeps every station busy. In initial tests, the same bar handled up to 60% more orders per hour this way. On top of that: no setup or monthly fee, no minimum revenue, no minimum term and no app for your guests.
Do my guests need an app?
No. They order in the browser, with no app and no account. For push notifications, the guest agrees once. On iPhone, Apple requires adding skippr to the home screen for this; on Android it works right away.
Can guests order during the show?
Yes. The guest orders from where they are and gets a push notification as soon as their drinks are ready. Until then, they don’t miss any of the show.
Does it work at seated concerts?
Yes. Guests order from their seat and pick up at the bar they chose when ordering. Delivery to the seat is not part of skippr.
We have several bars. Does that work?
Yes. Each bar has its own queue, its own stations and its own menu. Guests choose which bar to pick up from when they order. If one bar gets too busy, you pause it for a moment.
Can guests still order at the bar?
Yes, if you want. skippr runs alongside your POS. But you can also switch to skippr completely and stop taking payments at the bar.
Does skippr work at open-air concerts?
Yes. Outdoors with several bars on site, skippr works the same way, with its own queue for every bar. More on the page Festivals & open-air events.
How do ID checks work?
Your team checks ID at pickup and confirms it on the tablet. At 18+ events, that step is skipped.
Where is skippr from?
From Berlin. skippr is a digital ordering system for bars, clubs and events by Line Skippr, Berlin, available to venues across Germany.
