Requests for songs you actually play

Fans scan a QR code and request from their phones, but only from the songs you've chosen to play. Requests and votes appear on your screen so you can pick what fits the set, and fans can add a tip when they ask for a song.

Only your repertoire

Restrict requests to your own setlist or a playlist, so you only ever get asked for songs you can actually perform, with no awkward requests for tracks you don't know.

Get tipped for requests

Fans can add a tip when they request a song, so you earn extra during the show and they get a better chance of hearing their song.

Stay focused on playing

Requests and votes come in on your screen, and optional auto-accept rules handle them for you, so you can keep performing instead of managing a list.

How Musicians manage Song Requests

1

Setup

Before your live show, create an event with key details like event name, start time, and duration. Rekwest generates a unique QR code or link that your audience can use to request songs right from their browser, without needing to install an app or create an account. You can display the QR code around the venue using customizable poster styles that fit the ambiance. You can restrict requests to your repertoire or specific playlists to ensure you perform songs you know well and that fit your style. Optional auto accept and decline settings help you stay focused on performing rather than managing requests.

2

During the Performance

As requests and votes come in live, you monitor the list and accept songs that suit the moment. Accepted songs can be added directly to your setlist via Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud, or popular DJ software. Rekwest also supports tipping and messages on song requests, allowing fans to show appreciation and support your music financially during the performance.

After the Show

After your show, send automated follow-up emails to thank attendees and promote upcoming events. Powerful analytics show your most requested songs and highlight audience engagement, helping you plan future sets effectively.
