Facts from GetWaitlist's own site, last checked September 2026

Which one fits

Choose GetWaitlist or Qubed

Both are good at different jobs. Here's the honest split.

Choose GetWaitlist if…

  • You're a developer who wants a waitlist API and webhooks today; Qubed's are on the roadmap, not yet live.
  • You want a widget inside your existing Webflow, Wix or Squarespace site rather than a separate page.
  • You need email blasts, permitted signup domains or UTM tracking per signup.
  • Unlimited signups on the entry plan matter more to you than a free tier.

Choose Qubed if…

  • You want to start free. Qubed's Free plan has no time limit.
  • You want a finished, hosted page from 1,000 animated templates instead of styling a widget.
  • You want a launch countdown above the signup form, built in.
  • You want a simple price: $9.95/mo for unlimited pages and 10,000 subscribers per page.
