Getting Started

Get your first waitlist live in under 5 minutes.

What can you build?

Waveup works for any launch that needs a signup list:

  • SaaS & product launches — collect beta testers before launch day
  • E-commerce & limited drops — sneaker releases, limited editions, pre-orders
  • Events & conferences — early-bird RSVPs, VIP access lists
  • Restaurants & hospitality — digital waiting lists, new location openings
  • Real estate — interest lists for new developments and open houses
  • Education & courses — cohort enrollments, workshop signups

1. Sign up and create your waitlist

Head to waveup.io/login and sign in with Google or email. Once inside the dashboard, click New Project to create your first waitlist. Configure your brand name, colors, and headline in the project settings.

2. Embed the signup widget

Go to Widget in your dashboard to grab the embed code:

<script src="https://widget.waveup.io/v1.js"
        data-project="YOUR_PROJECT_ID"></script>

Paste this snippet anywhere on your website. The widget will render a signup form that matches your brand settings.

Alternatively, share your hosted landing page directly — no code required.

3. Read your analytics

Visit the Dashboard to see real-time stats:

  • Total subscribers and daily signups
  • Referral rate and average position
  • Conversion funnel from visit to signup

4. Referral system

Every subscriber gets a unique referral link automatically. When they share it and someone signs up through it, the referrer moves up the waitlist. Track referral chains and top referrers in the Referrals tab.

5. REST API

Need programmatic access? See the API Documentation for endpoints covering subscribers, projects, and referral data.
