Queue-Fair protects websites and digital services when traffic surges, bots attack, or demand exceeds available capacity. When too many visitors arrive at once, Queue-Fair automatically places excess visitors in a fully branded online queue and returns them to your site in fair, first-come, first-served order at a rate you control. This keeps your website, checkout, login, payment pages, booking flows, registration forms, landing pages, APIs and critical infrastructure fast, stable and available without over-scaling, re-platforming or re-architecting your stack. Built for enterprise deployment and trusted for the world’s largest online queues, Queue-Fair is powerful enough for governments, global retailers, ticketing companies, transport providers, universities, visitor attractions and major ecommerce brands — while remaining simple, fast and affordable for smaller businesses too. Organisations can start with our Free Tier and grow into paid protection as their needs develop, with special pricing available to make professional peak-demand protection accessible to businesses of every size. Queue-Fair combines Virtual Waiting Room technology with Bot Detection and Mitigation features that help protect high-demand sales, ticket onsales, product launches, registrations, application windows, flash sales and 24/7 websites from overload, scraping, automated abuse, unfair access, fake demand and malicious bot activity. Queue-Fair helps identify and control suspicious traffic before it can overwhelm your systems, distort analytics, waste capacity, submit forms, attack APIs, bypass fairness controls or prevent genuine visitors from getting the service they deserve. Teams get granular control over visitor flow across an entire site or app, specific pages, bottlenecks and customer journeys, including login, add-to-cart, checkout, payment gateways, booking engines, registration pages and API calls. Queue-Fair includes real-time traffic analytics, flexible activation rules, secure pass validation, exclusive access mechanisms, proof-of-work protection, bot-resistant joining options, Single Use Join Tokens to ensure one order per human being, rate controls, branded queue pages, visitor messaging, email notifications and full customisation of the waiting experience. Unlike generic bot tools that only block traffic, Queue-Fair protects both your infrastructure and your customer experience. Genuine visitors are held safely, informed clearly and admitted fairly, while automated and suspicious traffic can be challenged, throttled or blocked entirely. This makes Queue-Fair ideal for enterprise-scale traffic management, scheduled peak-demand events, 24/7 high-traffic protection, bot mitigation, fair access control and online queue management. Founded in 2004, Queue-Fair has decades of experience in online queuing, traffic management, admission control and fair access technology - no-one has been doing this for longer. With Queue-Fair, your website stays responsive, your real visitors are treated fairly, bots and bad actors are kept under control, and your revenue, infrastructure and brand reputation are protected. ## Queue-Fair Reviews ### 1. Integrated for a pre-sale with ease **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 11, 2022 **What do you like best about Queue-Fair?** Very easy to implement. We were able to implement in a day and run a few tests leading up to our sale at www.theplayerslounge.io. We run a platform with a number of commerce customers where queues have become a necessity and we will be moving forward with Queue-Fair. We tried a competitive product and were not happy with the results. Queue-Fair was not only easy and ran smoothly, but the team understood our needs and were able to work with us to achieve our goals. **What do you dislike about Queue-Fair?** There are some capabilities that we are looking for in the long term that were not all there. However, we will develop a long term relationship with Queue-Fair and work towards these capabilities together. **Recommendations to others considering Queue-Fair:** The Queue-Fair team has a deep knowledge and solid platform available for queuing customers for sales. It comes with a pre-sale waiting room, randomizer, adjustable pass through queue, and a pausing capability if for any reason you need to stop the queue when systems get overwhelmed. **What problems is Queue-Fair solving and how is that benefiting you?** We work with some of the biggest brands out there and with that comes a large demand during sales and drops. With that, we need a fair queuing platform to provide all customers with a fair and painless experience when engaging with our platform. We implemented a queue and the response from the community was very positive. ## Queue-Fair Discussions - [What is Queue-Fair used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-queue-fair-used-for) - 2 comments - [View Queue-Fair pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/queue-fair/reviews?filters%5Bnps_score%5D%5B%5D=4§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-08-09+08%3A57%3A35+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=0e2ad26d-d4b4-4873-9fae-844872885f49&secure%5Btoken%5D=50f1a8aac1b0d9ca6796f80cf1029852d4eb63dc34ac7eea32e5dfeca64728c2&format=llm_user) ## Queue-Fair Integrations - [Amazon CloudFront](https://www.g2.com/products/amazon-cloudfront/reviews) - [Cloudflare Application Security and Performance](https://www.g2.com/products/cloudflare-application-security-and-performance/reviews) - [Drupal](https://www.g2.com/products/drupal/reviews) - [OpenJDK 8 (Java 8) on Ubuntu 18](https://www.g2.com/products/openjdk-8-java-8-on-ubuntu-18/reviews) - [Pressable](https://www.g2.com/products/pressable/reviews) - [WooCommerce](https://www.g2.com/products/woocommerce/reviews) - [WordPress.org](https://www.g2.com/products/wordpress-org/reviews) - [WordPress PHP7.4](https://www.g2.com/products/wordpress-php7-4/reviews) - [WP Engine](https://www.g2.com/products/wp-engine/reviews) ## Queue-Fair Features **Bot Detection & Classification - Bot Detection and Mitigation** - Bot Traffic Analytics - Good Bot Identification - Malicious Bot Detection **Traffic** - Traffic Controls - Network Controls - Traffic Overview **Protection & Mitigation - Bot Detection and Mitigation** - Automated Bot Mitigation - API Abuse Protection - Account Takeover Protection **Administration** - Dashboard - Scalability - Customization - API / Integrations **AI-Powered Detection & Intelligence - Bot Detection and Mitigation** - AI-Powered Bot Detection - AI Agent & LLM Traffic Management - Adaptive AI Threat Response **Additional Functionality** - Web Traffic Monitoring - Anomaly/Malware Detection - Fraud Detection - Event Logs - Bot Mitigation - Vulnerability Scanning - Real-time Alerts - Threat Intelligence - Bot Detection - Dashboard - AI/Machine Learning - Generative AI - AI Copilot - Behavioral Analytics ## Top Queue-Fair Alternatives - [Queue-it](https://www.g2.com/products/queue-it/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (159 reviews) - [CrowdHandler](https://www.g2.com/products/crowdhandler/reviews) - 4.9/5.0 (38 reviews) - [Cloudflare Application Security and Performance](https://www.g2.com/products/cloudflare-application-security-and-performance/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (659 reviews)
