Questions & answers
Good questions, plainly answered.
Guests do not need an app, it is free to use, and everything they leave becomes a memory book you can export. Below are the questions hosts ask most before their day.
Do my guests need to download an app?
No. Guests scan a QR code or tap a venue kiosk and contribute straight from their browser. There is nothing to install and no account to create. They can leave a photo, a written message, or a hand-drawn signature in under a minute.
Is the digital guestbook free?
It is free to start. Every event includes 75 photos, unlimited messages and signatures, the QR code for guests, moderation, and your online memory book. For the full celebration there are two one-time upgrades: the Event Pass (10 euros) raises the album to 250 photos, and the Grand Pass (18 euros) to 500 photos. Both add the venue kiosk and print/PDF export. No subscription, and full-resolution photos always save to your own Google Drive, so there are never storage fees.
How much does an Event Pass cost?
There are two one-time upgrades, paid once per event, before or even during the celebration: the Event Pass at 10 euros (250 photos) and the Grand Pass at 18 euros (500 photos). Both unlock kiosk mode and print/PDF export for that event.
Do I need a Google Drive?
Yes, for now. You connect your own Google Drive when you set up an event, and the full-resolution original of each photo is saved straight to it, so every photo stays in your hands at full quality. To show the live wall and build your memory book, we keep two small copies on our own servers: a thumbnail and a display-sized version. The full-size files live on your Drive, not ours. Any free Google account works, and we only ever touch the folder we create for your event.
How many photos can each event collect?
A free event collects up to 75 photos. An Event Pass (10 euros) raises that to 250, and a Grand Pass (18 euros) to 500, which is plenty for almost any celebration. Messages and signatures are always unlimited. If your photo album fills up, guests can still leave messages and signatures.
How does the QR code work?
Each event gets its own QR code. Print it for tables, the entrance, or your invitations. When a guest scans it, they land on your event's contribution page, themed for your celebration, and can add a photo, message, or signature right away.
What is the difference between the QR code and the kiosk?
The QR code lets guests contribute from their own phones. The kiosk turns a tablet you set up at the venue into a shared station with big buttons and a camera, resetting itself after each guest so the next person can step up. You can use either or both.
Can I review contributions before they appear?
Yes. Moderation is optional and set per event. With it on, every photo and message waits for your approval before it shows up in the memory book or on the live photo wall.
What happens to the photos and messages after the event?
Everything is gathered into a browsable memory book you can read, share, and export to print as a keepsake. Full-resolution photos are saved to your own Google Drive (we keep only small display copies on our servers to render the book and wall), so your guests' contributions always stay yours.
Is it private and GDPR-compliant?
Privacy is built in. Guests see a short consent notice before contributing. Full-resolution photos are saved to your own Google Drive, while small thumbnail and display copies plus everything else (messages, signatures, account data) sit on European infrastructure. You can delete any contribution or your whole event at any time. There are no third-party advertising trackers.
Can I use it for events other than weddings?
Absolutely. Birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, baby showers, reunions, memorials, and company celebrations all work the same way. If people gather and want to leave something behind, the guestbook fits.
