How Buying Works

From creating a free event to downloading every photo — here's the full flow, step by step.

1. Create an event — free

Sign in and create an event in under a minute. No payment is required to create an event, generate its QR code, or start collecting photos.

2

2. Share the QR code

Print or display the event's QR code — at a wedding, party, or any gathering. Guests scan it with their phone camera and land straight on the upload page. No app to install, no account for guests to create.

3. Guests upload photos

Guests upload photos directly from their phones. Uploads are free and unlimited for the event's retention period; you can watch photos arrive live in your dashboard.

4. Subscribe to unlock extended storage and downloads

When you're ready for longer retention and full-gallery ZIP downloads, subscribe from your dashboard — currently $1/month at the introductory rate. Checkout is handled entirely by Stripe; we never see or store your card details.

5. Download your photos

Once subscribed, download every photo from the event as a single ZIP file, any time, from your dashboard. See our Refund Policy for what happens if a charge or download goes wrong.
