Restaurants
The wait for a table becomes a game.
For business
Turn any TV into a PlanetMesa table.
A screen on your wall shows the game. A code on the screen puts the room in it. Their own phones hold their hands. Nothing to install, nothing to hand out, nothing to collect at the end of the night.
How it works
Seven steps, and six of them are the customer's
You put a screen on the wall. Everything after that happens on phones that are already in the room.
-
The TV shows a lobby
A screen on the wall sits on the venue’s own PlanetMesa lobby, showing the room what is about to happen.
-
A QR code goes up on it
The code is on the screen, big enough to scan from a table across the room.
-
Players scan with their phones
No sign-up at the door. The phone opens the table that screen is showing.
-
The first one in hosts
Whoever scans first sets the house rules and opens the table. The rest take the other chairs.
-
The TV is the table
The board, the score, the plates and the slip — everything the whole room is allowed to see, large enough to see it.
-
The phone is your hand
Your fichas are on your phone and nowhere else. The screen is a watcher: it is sent a view with no chair in it, so there is no hand on it to leak.
-
Up to four tables on one screen
One game full screen, or four side by side when the place is busy.
The question everybody asks first
Nobody's hand is ever on the big screen.
The television is not a player. It holds no chair, so the game sends it the view a spectator gets — the board, the score, the plates, the slip — and there is no hand in that view to leak. A player's fichas are drawn on their own phone and nowhere else.
That is a property of how the thing is built, not a setting somebody has to remember to switch on. It cannot be misconfigured into showing a hand, because the screen is never sent one.
Where it belongs
Rooms where people were already going to talk
PlanetMesa works best where there is a reason to stay a while — and a screen that is currently showing nothing anybody chose.
Bars & lounges
A screen that is not another match nobody is watching.
Hotels & resorts
Something for the lobby, the pool bar and the rainy afternoon.
Domino clubs
The club’s own tables, on the wall, with the whole room watching.
Community centers
One screen, a room full of people, no equipment to hand out.
Senior communities
The game they already play, large enough to see from any chair.
Social clubs
Members play, everyone else watches and talks.
Entertainment venues
A screen that fills itself between events.
Why it is worth the wall
What a venue actually gets
Nothing to install at the door
Players use the phone already in their pocket. No kiosk, no tablets to charge and lose.
A screen that earns its wall
A television running a game the room is in is a different thing from a television running a channel nobody picked.
Hands stay private
The public screen is only ever sent what a spectator may see. A player’s fichas live on their own phone — by design, not by discipline.
Built for the room
The screen opens the PlanetMesa venue view and keeps the room focused on the table.
Run by people, not a dashboard you have to learn
PlanetMesa staff set a venue up, pair its screens and keep them running. You get a working wall, not an admin console.
The numbers come back
How often screens are used, how many tables, how many players — reported per venue.

Questions
Before you ask us
What do I need on the wall?
A television and an internet connection. The screen opens the PlanetMesa venue view and keeps the room focused on the table.
Do my customers have to download anything?
No. They scan the QR code on the screen and the table opens on their phone.
Can other people see my hand on the big screen?
No. The screen is only ever sent the view a spectator gets — it holds no chair, so there is no hand on it to show. Your fichas are on your own phone.
How many games can one screen run?
One game full screen, or up to four side by side.
What does it cost?
Venue plans are quoted per venue and invoiced with terms, because a shop is a business and not a card form. Tell us about your place and we will come back with a number.
Is anything gambled?
No. PlanetMesa takes no bets and handles no wagers, in a venue or anywhere else.
Got a room and a television?
Tell us about the place. We will tell you what it takes — honestly, including when the answer is "not yet".
