A Typical Quiz Night

Four rounds. Two hours. One unforgettable night.

19:00

Host Setup

Arrive, configure the platform, run AV check, lay out answer sheets. Classic takes ~30 min. Express needs just 15 — it's app-based.

20:00

Doors Open

Teams arrive and check in via QR code. Registrations flow straight into the platform. The venue starts filling up.

20:30

Round 1

Your warm-up round. Set the tone — energy matters as much as the questions.

21:00

Rounds 2 & 3

Music, picture, or themed rounds with a break in between. Breaks are when the bar does its best business.

21:45

Round 4 — The Final

Last round, highest stakes. Every team locked in, pencils down.

22:15

Leaderboard & Prizes

Live reveal, winner announcement, prize ceremony. Prizes are mostly sponsor-funded — your cost is near zero.

The Platform

Your business, already built.

Your calendar, sorted

Schedule events once and the platform publishes them to the QED website for players to find and book. Capacity, logistics, and registration handled automatically.

Revenue tracked, settled monthly

Online bookings go through Stripe. Walk-ins and cash payments are logged manually. Everything is tracked per-event in your dashboard and settled with QED monthly.

Run the show from your laptop

Project questions to any screen from your laptop. Timers, answer reveals, and round transitions — all handled with a click. A phone controller is coming soon.

The room stays hooked

Live scores on the big screen after every round. Automatic tie-breakers, running totals, team banter built in. It runs itself.

Zero door chaos

Teams scan a QR on arrival — no lists, no headaches. You see exactly who's in and who's running late. — Coming soon.

Marketing that works while you sleep

QED runs paid ads on your behalf across Meta and Google. CAPI-powered attribution means your budget is spent precisely — the same performance marketing approach used by major tech companies.

FAQ

Franchise
questions.

How much does it cost to get started? +

There's a one-time entry fee of €150 on signing, which covers onboarding, training, and brand setup. After that, the only ongoing cost is QED's revenue share — 17% of ticket income and 25% of any sponsorship recorded through the platform. No monthly subscription.

Do I need experience in hospitality or events? +

No experience needed. QED provides comprehensive training, a detailed host guide, and hands-on onboarding support — everything you need to run your first event confidently.

How does territorial exclusivity work? +

Territory is defined on a case-by-case basis depending on the city and brand. You start with a focused area — as you hit performance milestones, we work with you to expand. It's designed to grow with you, not box you in from day one.

Can I run this alongside a full-time job? +

Yes. You can start with 1–2 events per week in the evenings. As your calendar fills up, you can decide whether to scale up, hire hosts, or keep it as a side business — the model works at any pace.

What if I want to exit the franchise? +

After the initial 6-month term, you can exit with 90 days notice. A 24-month non-compete applies within 25km of venues you operated — this protects both you and the network.

How are question packs created and quality-controlled? +

Our content team writes fresh questions weekly, covering general knowledge, music, pictures, and themed rounds. Every pack is reviewed for accuracy, difficulty balance, and cultural relevance before release.

What support do I get after launch? +

Dedicated WhatsApp and Telegram channels for day-to-day questions, monthly performance reviews with the QED team, priority support with < 4hr response time on critical issues, and ongoing training as new features launch.
