There are more than 50K+ venues that do bottle service, guest list, and ticketing worldwide. The industry is $25B+ domestically and over $75B+ globally. The industry has historically seen very few technological advances, lacks transparency, has an inefficient booking process, lack of user data/analytics, notoriously difficult to access and struggles with excess inventory. Tablelist is the leading provider for real-time online reservations for nightlife patrons and reservation/guest management solutions for nightclubs, lounges & bars. In a couple taps users can browse the best events/venues, prepay & reserve bottle service, bar spends, guest list and tickets. On the venue side, we provide casino level intelligence to our partners through our beautifully designed and easy to use venue and guest management platform. We make money by taking a percentage of all transactions we send to our venues (15-25%) and charge a monthly fee to our venue to use our venue management software ($99-$499/mo).
