StockTap TV JoltQuiz alternative
JoltQuiz or StockTap TV: which one fits your pub?
Short answer. If you want a hosted quiz night with lots of mini games and a quizmaster who likes to perform, JoltQuiz is a good tool. If you want your TVs working all week without anyone hosting, with your offers and the football on the same screens, that's what StockTap TV is for. Here's the detail, so you can decide.

Questions
Can I use both?
Yes. Some pubs will want a dedicated tool for a big hosted quiz night and StockTap TV for the screens the rest of the week. They don't clash.
Which is cheaper?
For a small hosted quiz, JoltQuiz's free first quiz or £22.99 plan is cheaper. If you want the quiz, bingo, offers and match-day screens running all week on every TV, StockTap TV is £34 a month for all of it.
Do I have to write questions for StockTap TV?
Not for the all-day quiz: over 6,000 questions are already in. For your own quiz night you bring your own or your quiz company's.
