Paper tokens tell a Roanoke customer their number is T-47; SWIQ tells them they're 4th in line with an 11-minute wait — and they can wait from the car. Tokens issue at the counter or from a shared link, roll to the next customer automatically, and give management the data that paper never did: arrivals per hour, service times, peak windows. It's the token system your customers already understand, minus the paper, the repeats and the arguments about who was next.
