At Dojo, we work with our partner restaurants to bring you great dining experiences, when you want them. Grab an instant table to eat now, jump in the virtual queue and have a drink while we queue for you, or immerse yourself and book a place for that special occasion. Restaurants trust Dojo to facilitate amazing experiences. We drop more great places daily, so you're sure to find something you love. Features - Grab last-minute tables instantly - Queue virtually from up to 5km away - Book ahead and plan special occasions Feeling hungry now? You'll see the places nearby when you launch the app, and booking an available table is a couple of taps away. Restaurants offer last-minute tables, even at peak times. We've optimised the app to show you real-time availability, so grab your slot before somebody else does. Head over to the restaurant, who'll be expecting you, then take a seat and have a great time! Don't feel like queuing around the corner? For those extra-special, super-popular places, we offer virtual queuing. Join the queue and we'll send you real-time updates on your position and how long the wait is going to be. Then, you're free to find something better to do with your time. You can message the restaurant while you wait, and they'll notify you when your table is nearly ready. When you join Dojo, you'll be able to join the queue from 2km away. The more you show-up you'll unlock a greater range - up to 5km! Planning something special, or just like to be organised? Through Dojo, you can book up to a year in advance(1). This is great for those who like to plan ahead, and key to securing the perfect spot for a grand occasion. You can make a booking at restaurants for larger party sizes, with the entire experience handled directly in the app, including booking deposits, all powered by Dojo. Of course, you can amend or cancel your booking at any time, all through the app. Got a question or need some support? At Dojo we provide the very best in customer care. Chat with us directly in the app, drop us an email at [support@dojo.app](mailto:support@dojo.app), or find us on Twitter and Instagram. Our customer support team is available {8am until 8pm every day} to help you with anything from minor questions to event planning emergencies. You're in good hands. Want to keep your personal data safe? We've made data security our highest concern, and it's your right to have your data protected and accessible. Find all the details in our Privacy Policy; https://dojo.app/legal/privacy/, or contact our customer support team if you have any doubts or questions. (1) Each of our partner restaurants decides how long in advance they'd like to take bookings - some have no limit, others like to keep it spontaneous and fresh.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Magic Stamp at free against Dojo's free with in-app purchases. Magic Stamp also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.1). Dojo's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and ratings volume (211 vs 29). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
