Team Trivia runs licensed bar trivia, music bingo and team feud in pubs. Quizado gives a venue the same three shapes of night to run on its own screens, with a Wager round type built in and no host to book.
Quizado is the Team Trivia alternative for a venue that wants to own the night outright: the same team format with a Wager round, a Family Feud mode and music rounds, hosted by your own staff on your own screens instead of through a licence and a booked host.
A host network can only put a night where it has a host. That is the right way to run one, and it also means some towns are not on it yet.
Software has no territory. If your bar has a connection and a screen, you can put a full trivia night on the calendar for next Wednesday.
Signing a venue licence means reading terms, agreeing a period and committing before you know whether Wednesday is the right night for your room.
Run the free plan for a month first. If the room does not turn up, you stop and nothing is owed and nothing goes back.
Host networks are always hiring, because hosts move on. When one quits mid-season, the gap lands in your diary.
When the show runs on your own account, any member of staff can pick up the host device and carry on. The questions, teams and season table are already there.
Trivia on Tuesday, music bingo on Thursday and a feud night once a month usually means three separate bookings and three separate conversations.
Bar trivia, Name That Tune, Family Feud, Jeopardy and Music Bingo all live in the same app. Change format by opening a different game. Family Feud, Jeopardy and Music Bingo are on Hospitality Group.
A wagering format is the hardest thing in pub trivia to keep straight by hand once you pass fifteen teams, and one arithmetic slip ruins the finish.
Wagers are applied by the app. Points go on when the answer is right and come off when it is wrong, and the table updates on the big screen with no mental arithmetic.
When guests talk about the quiz using the trivia company name rather than the name of your bar, the loyalty sits with the brand and travels with it.
From Trivia Pro upwards the display carries your logo, so it reads as your quiz on your screens. Fonts, colours and white-label are on Hospitality Group.
Concu de A a Z pour le bar trivia moderne et les evenements en direct.
Teams stake points on their own confidence before the answer is revealed. Get it right and the stake is added, get it wrong and it comes off. The app does the arithmetic.
Buzzer Race, Everyone Answers, Everyone Scores, Knockout and Wager, with Music Bingo making six on Hospitality Group. Build a night that speeds up, slows down and finishes on a gamble.
Two host-run game show formats on the Hospitality Group plan. The host reads, the room answers out loud, the host awards the points from the console.
Name That Tune questions cover the nights when a straight quiz is not the draw, and Music Bingo adds a full music format on Hospitality Group. You are responsible for your own music licence.
Every player joins through the camera on their phone. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for, and no laminated instructions on the table.
Built-in packs on every plan and a premium library on paid plans. Writing your own question sets and generating a bar trivia round with monthly AI credits both start on Trivia Pro.
Read teamtrivia.com and the offer is clear. They describe live bar trivia, music bingo and team feud hosted at pubs across the US, and they market weekly promotions to venues (teamtrivia.com, checked August 2026). There is a route for players looking for a game, a route for venues that want the show, and a licence option for operators.
They are also visibly hiring, which is what a live host network looks like when it is working properly. No venue rate or licence fee is published, so if you are budgeting, ask them for a quote rather than trusting a number from a forum.
Years of running the same format is a real asset. Teams recognise the name, know the rules and turn up expecting a particular rhythm. If your goal is to buy a night that already works, that history is exactly what you are paying for, and Quizado does not replace it. What Quizado replaces is the part where the format belongs to someone else.
The wager is the reason team trivia works as a night out. Without it a strong team pulls ten points clear by round three and everybody else stops caring. With it, the table in fourth place can put everything on the last question and win the whole thing, so nobody leaves at the break.
Quizado has Wager as one of the five bar trivia round types, alongside Buzzer Race, Everyone Answers, Everyone Scores and Knockout, with Music Bingo making six on Hospitality Group. Teams commit a stake before the answer is revealed. A correct answer adds the stake to the total and a wrong one takes it away, and the scoreboard on the TV moves as soon as the round closes. Nobody at the host console is adding and subtracting on a beer mat.
The practical benefit is the finish. Put a Wager round last and the standings stay unreadable until the final reveal, which is when the room is loudest and when people order another round. Put one in the middle and it resets a night that a single team is running away with. Because it is a round type rather than a manual bolt-on, you can do either without changing how you run anything else.
There are three ways to get a weekly quiz into a bar. Book a hosted company and pay per night. Take a licence and run their format under their brand with their material. Or buy software and run your own show. Each one trades money against control in a different direction.
Booking costs the most per night and asks the least of you. A licence sits in the middle: cheaper than a full booking, but you are still inside a system somebody else owns, and the brand equity you build belongs to them. Software is the cheapest recurring cost and the most work, because the person on the microphone is on your payroll.
Quizado sits at the software end. Start free with the built-in packs, for up to sixteen players and no card. Paid plans lift that cap and open the premium question library. Writing your own question sets starts on Trivia Pro, which also adds media rounds, monthly AI credits, leagues and a custom logo. Hospitality Group adds Family Feud, Jeopardy, Music Bingo, bulk import and up to three venues. Prices are on the pricing page, and worth weighing against the fee a booking would cost you every week.
A known brand and a supplied host solve problems that software does not touch.
These four reasons come up again and again from venues that made the move.
Build a game with the same shape your teams expect: several themed rounds, a halftime break and a wager to finish. Familiar rhythm, new software.
Play a full game with your own team on a closed afternoon. Whoever is hosting gets to make their mistakes with nobody watching, which is worth an hour of wages.
Open a league table on night one, on Trivia Pro or above, and tell the regulars the season runs for ten weeks. It gives the switch a reason that has nothing to do with who used to run the quiz.
If you already work as a trivia host for a network, you are the person this comparison should interest most. You drive to the venue, you carry the gear, you hold the room together for two hours. The bookings, the brand and the question sets are not yours.
Quizado is a way to run your own bookings on the side. A free account with the built-in packs is enough to try a venue that a network does not cover. Trivia Pro puts your own logo on the display, gives you media rounds with image, audio and video, your own question sets, monthly AI credits for writing fresh material fast, and leagues so a bar can watch the night build across a season. Hospitality Group covers up to three venues and adds Family Feud, Jeopardy and Music Bingo, which is what to reach for when a venue asks for a game show night instead of a quiz.
Everything runs from a laptop, tablet or phone, so nothing changes about how you travel. Check your own agreement before you take a booking near a venue you already cover for someone else. That part is between you and them.
Team Trivia has been running the same night in pubs for years and has a host network, a recognised name and a licence route for operators who want the whole package. Quizado has none of those things. We are software: no host arrives, no questions are written for you every week, and there is no brand on the poster except yours. If you want a trivia night delivered rather than driven, they solve that and we do not.
New to running a night in-house? Start with the bar trivia software overview, then look at the trivia host app if you would rather run everything from a phone or laptop behind the bar.
Start free with the built-in packs, put the QR code on the TV and see how the room reacts. Writing your own question sets starts on Trivia Pro.
