What Is SpeedQuizzing

 

SpeedQuizzing is a modern, fast-paced, and highly entertaining quiz game that ditches the pens and paper in favour of smartphones and tablets. It’s everything you love about a traditional pub quiz—just quicker, more interactive, and a whole lot more fun.

All you need is one smart device per team, with the free SpeedQuizzing app installed. Whether you’re a quizzing guru or a total trivia newbie, the app is easy to use, and the gameplay keeps everyone engaged from start to finish.

We recommend team sizes of up to 4–6 players (depending on the venue) so that everyone can gather around the device and take part easily.

How It Works

SpeedQuizzing takes the classic pub quiz format and gives it a digital upgrade:

  • No pens, no paper – just one smartphone or tablet per team. We bring our own tablets with us for teams to use if the don’t have their own or have a problem with their device.

  • Answer fast – each question has a strict 10-second time limit to keep things moving and reduce cheating.

  • Tap to answer – submit responses by tapping the correct letter or multiple-choice option on your device.

  • Instant feedback – the correct answer is revealed straight away after each question.

  • Live scores – the app automatically keeps score and displays a live leaderboard throughout the quiz.

  • Game show vibes – with sound effects and music played over the sound system, SpeedQuizzing feels more like a TV show than a classroom test.

Why Choose SpeedQuizzing Over a Traditional Pen & Paper Quiz?

If you’ve hosted traditional quizzes before, you may have noticed a familiar pattern—certain teams winning week after week. SpeedQuizzing changes the game. Literally.

With SpeedQuizzing, everyone has a real chance to win thanks to dynamic scoring options and interactive features that level the playing field. Here’s how:

Fast Track Scoring

To keep things exciting and unpredictable, we can introduce a Fast Track Rule. If the top three teams get a question wrong, the team that answered fastest (and correctly) can be Fast Tracked up to the top of scoreboard by one point. It’s a fun twist that rewards quick thinking and keeps every team on their toes.

 

Interactive Bonus Rounds

Break away from the norm with special round types:

  • Buzzer Rounds – Teams race to buzz in first with the correct answer.

  • Voting Rounds – Opinion-based questions where the majority vote wins the points.

  • Bonus Gimmicks – Away from the quizzing we can boost teams by offering bonus points for winning the pedometer challenge or guessing the winner in The Japan World Cup digital horse race.

These features ensure a more varied and engaging quiz experience every time.

Sponsor and Venue Promotion

Between each of the four quiz rounds (typically 20 questions per round), we offer the option to display sponsor logos, promotional messages, or special offers directly on team devices. Perfect for:

  • Charity & Fundraising Nights – Showcase sponsor messages or donation prompts.

  • Pubs & Venues – Advertise food and drink deals during the breaks.

We can also project this information on a big screen or TV for the whole venue to see.
