What is our text to screen system?
This simple tool is a valuable addition to pubs and clubs and utilises your existing TV screens or projector screen. The clients in your venue can register then simply type a text message and send it to a dedicated number.

All incoming messages are directed to an admin panel that the DJ or Bar Manager can control. Each message can be sent directly to the screen, refused or repeated. A useful utility also allows you to click any single word in any message and it is banned from the system on that and all future messages. (All banned words are shown as ****).

The system also allows you to add up to 6 marketing messages allowing you to advertise events or drinks promotions, plus you are able to configure screen resolution, text size, centring and default colours.

For added fun, the Administrator can insert messages easily to get the show started or to wind up others who may already be participating.

Each message defaults on screen for around 12 seconds giving ample time to read it and the Admin screen shows clearly how many messages are queued plus the wait time for any new messages sent.

By encouraging customer interaction with the screens in this way, it creates a fun environment and allows the DJ to have a banter with the crowds helping retain customers and increase your profit.

Generating Income via Text to Screen.
You can expect a high revenue stream using our text to screen service - a typical example is below. You can also use the calculator further down to estimate your revenue based on the venue size.
