Quiz hosts run weekly quiz nights in pubs, bars and clubs, and private quizzes for birthdays, charities and work teams. On the night, teams usually pay a small entry fee per player, some of which may go into a prize pot, while the venue pays the host a set fee. Private and charity quizzes are often booked ahead with a deposit. A payments app that lets teams pay entry fees from their phones, shows the prize pot clearly and gets the host paid on time can win quiz hosts, and every team that plays sees your app.

Let teams pay from their phones
A QR code on each table lets teams pay the entry fee in seconds, so the host is not counting coins between rounds and nobody is left short of cash.

Keep prize pots and host fees clear
Entry fees can be tracked as they come in, so everyone can see the prize pot, and the venue can pay the host through a link straight after the quiz.
Grow through pubs and event hosts
Quiz hosts work in the same pubs and venues as DJs, comedians and event hosts. When those businesses take payments through your app, each quiz host can bring more of them onto it.
