How to make money with karaoke at a bar

Dj Link · Oct 27, 2026

Karaoke fills tables, but it can also earn money on its own. These are the most common sources.

More spending at the tables

People waiting for their turn order another round. A queue visible on the TV and requests from the table keep guests seated and spending.

Tips for the DJ

Many guests want to say thanks but carry no cash. With digital tips paid into the DJ's PayPal, tipping no longer depends on having change.

Skipping the line

Some singers pay to go first. A Priority Pass, priced as you decide, turns impatience into income.

Ads on the screen

The karaoke TV is watched all night. You can show your own promotions or sell space to local brands and businesses. Dj Link has all this in one panel.

Tip

Start with one source, see how people respond and add another later.
