What our users
are saying
Join thousands of founders and businesses
who have built successful waitlists with Waitlister.
As we were scrambling to build out a waitlist, I looked up any tool that would be fastest. When I saw waitlister had drag and drop functionality I was sold instantly.
I liked how easy it was to set up the waitlist page using already-made templates, but also adjusting colors, fonts, and other parts of the landing page. I also value the functionality of statistics.
So cool that I can embed the waitlist form directly into an existing website. Makes integration seamless.
This is hands down one of the best products that I've purchased on AppSumo in recent years. Waitlister's a great product for testing the interest for your ideas in the marketplace and having a quick landing page to capture leads.
Do not sleep on this tool. It is nice and clean. I can have a CTA page up in 10-15 mins that captures the activity of the page and can send a welcome email and encourage others to share via a soft referral system.
Waitlister has been amazing; honestly, I don't plan on changing to another provider. For one, being able to create beautiful landing pages for my waitlist has been amazing.
