Paper guest books are hard to use
Handwriting, skipped fields, and misplaced sheets leave your venue with an incomplete audience list after the event.
Audience sign-in for open mic nights
An open mic guest sign-in app for bars, clubs, restaurants, and venues
MemberMaker turns a phone or tablet into a simple sign-in point for audience members at your open mic night—helping your establishment build a readable guest list and recognize the people who return.
- Guest self-service on a phone or tablet
- Returning-guest and visit history
- CSV export for your venue's contact list
Know who came to the show
Replace the audience clipboard, not the performer lineup
MemberMaker is for the customers and community members attending your open mic. It does not manage performer registration, stage order, or set times.
Your team is already busy
A guided self-service station lets guests enter their own details while staff focus on service and the host runs the show.
A crowd is more valuable when it returns
Keep a usable record of open mic guests so you can recognize regulars and promote another night through your approved marketing process.

Common questions
Open mic guest sign-in app FAQ
Is this an open mic performer signup sheet?
No. This page describes using MemberMaker to sign in audience members and other guests at an open mic night. Use a separate performer registration or running-order tool for stage participants.
Where should a venue put the guest sign-in device?
Place it where arriving guests can easily see it, such as the entrance, host stand, welcome table, or check-in area. It should not obstruct the door or service flow.
Can we use it for a recurring open mic night?
Yes. MemberMaker records visits, making it useful for establishments that want to recognize returning guests across weekly or monthly events.
What guest details can the app collect?
MemberMaker can collect names, email addresses, and phone numbers through its guided sign-in flow. Establishments should follow their own privacy notice and marketing-permission requirements when using guest information.
Can we export the open mic guest list?
Yes. Export guest records to CSV for use in an approved spreadsheet, contact-management, or follow-up process.
