Karaoke DJ App for QR Song Requests

Replace paper slips and shouted requests with a mobile page and a queue the host controls.

DJ Request gives karaoke hosts a digital song request system that works alongside the gear and music library they already use. Singers scan a QR code, submit from their phone, and wait for the host to review the request.

How QR code karaoke requests work

The flow is designed for a busy karaoke night: quick for the singer, clear for the host, and separate from your playback system.

  1. 1

    Create the event

    Open a DJ Request event and use its share link or printable QR poster.

  2. 2

    Singer scans

    The request page opens in a phone browser; no guest app download is required.

  3. 3

    Song is submitted

    The singer searches for a track and can include a name or note for the host.

  4. 4

    Host keeps final control

    Review each request and accept or decline it from the DJ dashboard.

What a karaoke host gets

One visible queue

Review incoming requests in one dashboard instead of sorting paper slips, text messages, and conversations at the booth.

Singer context

See the requested track and any name or note the guest includes, so you have more context before calling the next singer.

Host approval

Review, accept, or decline requests. A submission never removes the host's control over availability or timing.

Less booth traffic

Let singers use the QR request page while you focus on audio, stage transitions, and keeping the night moving.

Built for phones at the venue

Singers use the camera already on their phone to open your event page. The responsive form keeps the song search, request note, and status easy to read without asking guests to create a DJ Request account.

  • No native guest app to install
  • One QR code or share link per event
  • Song search and request notes in the browser
  • Guest-facing request status without exposing the private DJ dashboard
Keep your karaoke stack

DJ Request does not replace your licensed karaoke catalog, lyrics display, audio player, or mixer. It handles request intake and queue decisions, so you can keep the playback workflow your team already knows.

Optional paid karaoke requests

When the event and plan allow it, a host can set a request price and let singers add an optional priority boost. Stripe authorizes the guest's payment first; the host still accepts or declines the song before capture.

Fee clarity: DJ Request charges a 15% app fee on the accepted base request amount. There is no DJ Request app fee on tips or boosts. Stripe processing and the connected account's payout schedule apply separately.

Where the karaoke request system fits

Weekly bar nights

Reduce the line at the booth and keep one request list for the current event.

Private parties

Give a birthday, wedding, or company party a clear request link guests can use themselves.

Karaoke venues

Use QR posters at the host station, tables, or entry so the request flow is easy to find.

Hosted competitions

Collect song choices digitally while keeping judging and competition rules in your existing process.

Karaoke DJ app pricing

Start with the Standard plan for core song requests. Pro Pass is $10 for a single event and adds the event Photo Wall workflow; Max Pass is $20 per month for regular events and ongoing Photo Wall access. Check the pricing page for the current plan details before your event.

Karaoke DJ app FAQ

How does DJ Request work as a karaoke request app?
The host creates an event and shares its QR code. Singers open the request page in their phone browser, search for a song, and submit it with their name or note. Requests arrive in one dashboard where the host reviews each submission.
Do karaoke guests need to download an app?
No. The guest request page runs in a mobile browser on iPhone and Android. A singer scans the event QR code and can submit without installing a native app.
Does DJ Request include karaoke music, lyrics, or licensing?
No. DJ Request is the request, queue, payment, and engagement layer. Karaoke hosts continue using their existing licensed catalog, playback software, mixer, and display setup.
Can a karaoke host charge for priority requests?
Eligible events can enable paid requests and optional priority boosts through Stripe. The host still chooses whether to accept each song. A 15% DJ Request app fee applies to the accepted base request amount, not to tips or boosts.
