Sound familiar?

The request list grows faster than you can spin.

Someone made a request five minutes ago and is already back at the booth. What they don't see: how long the list really is — and that their AC/DC request doesn't quite fit the current hip-hop set. DJ Beat and Bite takes that headache off your hands before it starts.

"Why isn't my song playing yet?" — every third guest, ten minutes after sending.
Notes that get lost. People asking at the booth three times. Music that doesn't match the mood.
The result: the DJ loses focus on the actual craft — the music.

Process

Three steps, no download.

For guests it takes ten seconds. For you, everything runs through one dashboard you can watch throughout your entire set.

01 / SCAN

Scan the QR code

On the table, at the bar, or on the invitation — guests scan with their phone camera and land directly on your event page. No app download, no account.

02 / REQUEST

Type in a song

Type in the artist or title, suggestions appear automatically (connected to Spotify/Deezer). Select, send, done.

03 / PLAY

You decide

Every request lands live in your dashboard. Accept, put on hold, or mark as played — you always stay in control of your set.

The centerpiece

One click, clear message.

The request list is full, the vibe isn't right, or everything is relaxed — try it out. The status appears instantly on every guest's phone, no typing needed.

  • Three states ready to go: relaxed, high demand, list full.
  • Custom text also possible, for moments that need a personal touch.
  • Guests automatically see their position in the queue — takes the pressure off without any extra work for you.
  • Changes go live in under a second. No interruption to your set.

What sets you apart

More than just song requests

Made for DJs, musicians and hospitality. These features bring you real value — on the Pro plan even extra income.

💶

PayPal tips

Your digital tip jar — activated in seconds. Guests send you a tip via PayPal straight from their smartphone, entirely cash-free. Pro plan.

🎵

"Tips-only" mode

Especially for musicians & live acts: turn song requests off completely and show only the tip button. Perfect for solo gigs, background dinner music or sets without requests. Pro plan.

💍

Couple's must-play list

The couple or organiser adds the songs that must be played via their own password-protected link — cleanly separated from the guests' requests. Pro plan.

📅

"Book" button for guests

Use your reach on the dance floor: guests send you a booking request for their own next event directly. Every request lands in your account. Pro plan.

🚦

Request status light & pause

Keep demand under control: green (all relaxed), amber (high demand), red (requests paused) — or freeze intake completely with one click. From Standard.

🔥

Popularity counter

If a track is requested several times, it appears only once — with a counter (e.g. "🔥 4×"). So the hottest songs of the night automatically rise to the top.

📲

Live request status for guests

Your guests see instantly on their phone whether their song was accepted, scheduled for later, not a good fit right now, or already played. From Standard.

🎧

Genre filter

Show or hide a separate button that lets guests simply pick a genre — e.g. 80s, rock or hip-hop — instead of a specific track. From Standard.

🖨️

QR print templates

Export your event QR code in four ready-made formats: classic A4 print, handy A6 size, a foldable table stand and a creative decorative cube to assemble. From Standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

What DJs ask most often.

What is DJ Beat and Bite?

DJ Beat and Bite is a web app for song requests and tips — for DJs, musicians and live acts. Guests scan a QR code and send their song request straight to the dashboard, no app and no sign-up. Musicians and live acts can also just collect tips via PayPal using the „tip-only\" mode, entirely without a request list.

Do guests need an app or an account?

No. Guests scan the QR code, land directly in the browser on the request page, and enter their song. No download, no registration, no login needed.

Does this require GEMA licensing?

No. Only text is displayed on the request page — no music is played through the platform, so the tool itself does not trigger licensing fees.

How much does DJ Beat and Bite cost?

Getting started is free, with one event per month included. For DJs with regular gigs, there are paid plans with unlimited events and extra features.

How quickly can I get started as a DJ?

Create an account, create an event, download or print the QR code — usually under two minutes.

Does this work for weddings and private parties as well as clubs?

Yes. Whether it's a wedding, birthday, corporate event, or club night — every event gets its own QR code, colors, and request settings.

In which countries can I use DJ Beat and Bite?

The platform is available to DJs across Germany and works technically across Europe — anywhere guests can scan a QR code with a smartphone.

Kann ich als DJ selbst entscheiden, welche Wünsche gespielt werden?

Ja, du hast die volle Kontrolle. Jeder Wunsch landet in deinem Dashboard, und du kannst ihn annehmen, zurückstellen, ablehnen oder als gespielt markieren. Nichts wird automatisch gespielt — die Musikauswahl bleibt komplett bei dir.

Sehen meine Gäste, ob ihr Wunsch drankommt?

Ja. Deine Gäste sehen den Status ihres Wunsches (in der Warteliste, gespielt oder abgelehnt) und über die Ampel-Anzeige, wie ausgelastet die Wunschliste gerade ist. Das nimmt Druck vom Pult, weil niemand mehr nachfragen muss.

Kann ich die Anzahl der Wünsche pro Gast begrenzen?

Ja. Pro Event legst du fest, wie viele Wünsche eine einzelne Person abgeben darf und wie viele Wünsche insgesamt angenommen werden. So verhinderst du, dass einzelne Gäste die Liste fluten.

Kann ich das Design der Wunschseite an mein Event anpassen?

Ja. Du kannst die Akzentfarbe, ein Titelbild und — in den bezahlten Plänen — dein eigenes Logo hinterlegen. So passt die Wunschseite optisch zu deiner Hochzeit, Party oder deinem Auftritt.

Wie bekomme ich den QR-Code zu meinen Gästen?

Du lädst den QR-Code als Bild herunter oder nutzt die fertigen Druckvorlagen — Flyer in A4 und A6, Tischaufsteller und Würfel. Einfach ausdrucken und auf die Tische, an die Bar oder den Eingang stellen.

Kann ich einen Wunsch auch für Gäste ohne Handy eintragen?

Ja. Im Live-Modus kannst du als DJ jederzeit selbst einen Wunsch von Hand eintragen — praktisch für Gäste, die dir ihren Wunsch direkt am Pult sagen.

Können zwei DJs zusammen an einem Event arbeiten?

Ja. Bei Back-to-Back-Sets teilen sich beide DJs den Zugriff auf dieselbe Wunschliste im Dashboard, sodass ihr euch nahtlos abwechseln könnt.

Was passiert mit den Daten meiner Gäste?

Die Daten liegen auf Servern in Deutschland und werden DSGVO-konform verarbeitet. Für einen Wunsch ist kein Login und keine Anmeldung nötig, und du behältst die Kontrolle über die Wunschliste deines Events.

Was ist der Unterschied zwischen Standard und Pro?

Standard bietet unbegrenzte Events und Wünsche, die Wunsch-Ampel und Pause-Steuerung, Live-Wunschstatus für Gäste, Musikrichtungs-Wünsche, eigenes Branding (Farben, Logo, Event-Bild), QR-Druckvorlagen und die Event-Auswertung. Pro enthält alles aus Standard und zusätzlich: die PayPal-Trinkgeld-Funktion, den „Nur-Trinkgeld"-Modus (ideal für Musiker), die Brautpaar-Must-Play-Liste, den „Buchen"-Button für Gäste und ein öffentliches Künstler-Profil.

Kann ich monatlich kündigen?

Ja. Standard und Pro kannst du monatlich buchen und ebenso monatlich wieder kündigen — es gibt keine lange Vertragsbindung.

Wie funktioniert die jährliche Zahlung?

Bei der jährlichen Buchung zahlst du den Jahrespreis einmalig im Voraus: Standard 48 € pro Jahr, Pro 72 € pro Jahr. Der Jahrespreis entspricht zwölf Monatsbeiträgen (kein zusätzlicher Rabatt).

Was sind Brautpaar-Must-Play-Songs?

Eine Pro-Funktion: Das Brautpaar oder der Gastgeber legt vorab Songs fest, die auf jeden Fall gespielt werden sollen — so gehen die wichtigsten Titel des Abends garantiert nicht unter.

Lohnt sich das auch für Musiker, Bands und Live-Acts?

Ja. Mit dem „Nur-Trinkgeld"-Modus (Pro) blendest du die Musikwünsche komplett aus und zeigst nur einen PayPal-Trinkgeld-Button. Gäste scannen den QR-Code und bedanken sich direkt — ideal für Solo-Auftritte, Live-Bands oder Hintergrundmusik beim Essen.

Was ist der „Nur-Trinkgeld"-Modus?

Eine Pro-Funktion: Pro Event schaltest du per Häkchen die Wunschannahme ab, sodass Gäste nur noch den Trinkgeld-Button sehen. So sammelst du bequem Trinkgeld ein, ohne Musikwünsche entgegenzunehmen.
