Hype Display puts your name, visuals and QR on any screen in the room — then turns what happens next into followers, a DJ profile with verified stats, and open decks nights that fill themselves.
Most tools give a performer one of these. Hype Display connects all three, and every night feeds the next.
Every room already has a screen. Hype Display turns it into the thing that grows your audience while you are busy playing.
An open decks night is a night where any DJ can claim a slot and play — no booking, no demo, no promoter to know. It is how most DJs get their first real set, and it is a nightmare to organise. Hype Display runs the whole thing: the venue posts the night, DJs claim their own slots, and the screen switches to each of them on time.
Every link-in-bio tool lets you claim you are busy. Hype Display counts the nights you actually played.
Displays, profiles and open decks are not three products bolted together. They are one loop, and each turn leaves something behind that pulls the next turn in.
A bar, a club, a listening room, a coffee shop with a booth in the corner. If there is a screen and a set of decks, this is the software for the nights you already want to run.
A DJ plan covers you. A venue or promoter plan covers your nights. The two sides are independent — hold one, or one of each.
Compare every DJ and venue plan
An open decks night is a night at a venue where any DJ can claim a slot and play — no booking, no demo submission, no promoter to know. Slots usually run 20 to 60 minutes and the lineup is whoever signed up. It is how most DJs get their first real set in front of a room. On Hype Display, venues post their nights publicly and DJs claim slots themselves, so you can browse every upcoming night in one place.
Open the open decks directory and filter by city, or set a radius and let it sort by distance from you. Each night shows the venue, the date, the time, and whether slots are still open. You claim from the night’s own page — you will need a free Hype Display account and about two minutes to set a DJ name. Playing an open decks night is free on every plan, including Free.
Post the night from your venue dashboard: pick the window, pick the slot length, and Hype Display builds the grid and a public sign-up page. Share the link or print the QR — the night also appears on your venue page, in the open decks directory, and on the screen itself between sets. On the night, the display switches DJ automatically at each printed slot time. Open decks nights are included in Venue Lite and Venue Pro.
Yes. Each slot has a printed start time and the display switches at that boundary — the DJ’s own name, logo, visuals and QR code load automatically, and their own social and tip links go live on the scanned page. Between sets, when nobody is on, the screen becomes a full-screen sign-up poster with a large QR, so the gaps recruit for the next night. Nobody has to stand at a laptop.
A DJ profile lives at hypedisplay.com/dj/yourname and is built for someone deciding whether to book you: bio, photos, mixes, genres, the event types you play, the venues that have you on their roster, and a booking inquiry form. It is a real crawlable page with structured data and it is in our sitemap, so it can turn up when someone searches your name. The difference from a link-in-bio tool is the stats — Hype Display counts the gigs you actually played, so the page carries evidence rather than claims. Your profile and its public page are free on every plan — the page lives at a permanent address of its own and appears in the DJ directory once it has a name and something to say. A custom handle, included with any paid plan, puts your name in the address; photos, mixes and the booking form are Creator and up.
They are measured by the product, not typed in by you. Gigs count only display sessions of fifteen minutes or more, so opening and closing a screen does not register. QR scans are counted on Hype Display displays. Followers gained are Instagram followers added during tracked sessions. Open decks sets are confirmed by the venue that hosted them. Every stat is off by default — you choose which ones are public, but you do not get to choose the number.
Only if you want both sets of features. The DJ plan and the venue or promoter plan are separate and independent — hold one, the other, or both. Venue and Promoter Lite and Pro already include Performer-level DJ features for the account holder, so if you run nights and also play them, the organizer plan covers your own display too.
Yes. A promoter profile lives at hypedisplay.com/promoter/yourcrew and is the public page for your crew, collective, or events brand: name, photos, genres, home city, and how to reach you. Setting it up is free and works alongside any DJ plan; the page is public at a permanent address of its own and appears in the promoter directory once it says something, and a promoter handle, included with any paid plan, puts your crew’s name in the address. Rosters and open decks nights hosted under your own brand at any venue are on the way — promoter plans share one subscription with venue plans, so the tier you hold today covers both as those features land.
Right now there is something bigger: Hype Display is in free beta until November 2, 2026, and every account gets the full product free — the complete Performer plan, with video blends, real-time tip alerts, custom call-to-actions, Instagram integration and live follower alerts, plus Pro for venue and promoter accounts. No credit card, no checkout, nothing to claim. The one thing the beta does not do is remove the Hype Display watermark; that turns off when you subscribe, and subscribing works normally during the beta. When the beta ends nothing is deleted — your displays, profiles and stats stay exactly where they are, the premium features lock until you upgrade, and every beta account receives a founder offer as a thank-you.
There is no cut, because the money never comes to us. You add your own Venmo, Cash App or PayPal handle, and the tip buttons on your link page open a payment straight from your fan to you. Hype Display’s job is the on-screen part: a live alert on the display the moment a tip lands, so the room sees it. We do not process, hold, or route payments.
A browser and a screen. Hype Display runs in a tab — open it on a laptop, tablet, phone or smart TV, AirPlay or cast it, or plug into the house projector. There is nothing to install, though it installs as an app if you want. The screen will not sleep on you, and once it is loaded it keeps running if the venue Wi-Fi drops. Most people are on a screen within five minutes of signing up.
