Guestpix Review 2026: Pricing, Features and Who It Suits

You have a date, a guest list, and a suspicion that the best photos will end up stuck on 120 other phones. Guestpix keeps coming up, and you want to know if it's worth paying for.

Disclosure first: we make Revel, a competing event camera, and we have not bought or used Guestpix.

Short answer: Guestpix looks like a solid, fairly priced way to collect photos, videos and messages from guests by QR code, especially if you want uploads to keep arriving for months. Wedding packages ran $49 to $119 at checkout in November 2026.

This review is based on its public pages, help center, checkout pages and independent reviews, not hands-on testing. Where a claim comes from a competitor or from Guestpix itself, we say so.

What Guestpix does, in one paragraph

Guestpix is a browser-based gallery for an event. You create a gallery, then share a QR code or private link. Guests open it on a phone, tablet or computer, with no app, account or password, and add photos, videos and messages under their name. You get a private gallery, a slideshow, moderation controls and a full-resolution ZIP of everything, sorted into folders by guest name, according to its FAQ.

The site says it is trusted by over 200k hosts in over 100 countries. Treat that as marketing and not an audited number. Its own pages also cite 150,000 events and "in excess of 100K" events in different places, so the figures don't line up, though they may simply date from different years. It does suggest the company has been around for a while.

Where Guestpix is the better choice

We'll start here because, for a lot of events, Guestpix does things Revel doesn't do at all.

It takes photos guests already have

Revel only accepts photos shot live through the Moment. Guestpix takes what is already on a guest's device. That is a real difference, and for many hosts it settles the question.

Think about who holds your best wedding photos. Your aunt with the good mirrorless camera, once she's moved the files to her phone or laptop. Your friend who took a hundred shots on an iPhone during the reception and won't look at them until Tuesday. The bridesmaid with the pictures from the rehearsal dinner. A collection tool catches all of that. Revel only accepts photos taken during the Moment, so the reception shots can go in, but the rehearsal dinner pictures can't unless the Moment was already open.

Long collection windows

This is the clearest strength on paper. A Signature wedding package gives guests 12 months to upload. A Signature Bundle gives 24. Even the entry package allows 3 months.

Long windows matter more than they sound. People really do take weeks to get around to it. Guestpix's FAQ suggests putting the gallery link in your thank-you cards to prompt late uploads, which is sensible advice for any tool with a long window. If your event is a wedding followed by a honeymoon followed by a first-anniversary party, a 12-month gallery can hold all of it.

Video and spoken messages

Paid packages list unlimited photos and videos, and the FAQ states no maximum video length, with files stored at full resolution. There's also a written and video guestbook. For a retirement party or a memorial, a shaky 40-second video of an old friend telling a story may be the thing you keep longest.

One honest gap: video is paid only. The free plan excludes video uploads and video guestbook messages. And we found no dedicated audio guestbook listed; Wedibox's comparison page says the same. If voicemail-style messages are what you want, see the alternatives below.

Invitations and RSVP in the same place

Guestpix includes a digital invitation with RSVP, even on the free plan. Wedding couples with a full website may not need it, but a birthday host with a group chat and a vague plan probably will.

Printing is taken care of

Paid packages come with more than 180 editable Canva templates for QR signs and table cards. The free plan doesn't include them. Picstash's founder, who is a competitor, called some of them really good but complained that the free templates are locked down. Either way, if you'd like to make your own sign, we have a free wedding photo QR code generator that works with any gallery link, Guestpix's included.

Guestpix pricing, checked November 2026

This is what most people searching for Guestpix pricing actually want, and it's harder to find than it should be. The pricing pages load their amounts in the browser, so the text we fetched showed package names with no numbers. To get real figures we opened each checkout page and read Guestpix's public store listing. All prices are US dollars, one-time, before any coupon, as shown on November 1, 2026.

Wedding packages

Package	Price	Galleries	Upload window	Hosting
Free	$0	1	30 days after event	Expires 37 days after event
Classic	$49	1	3 months	12 months from event date
Signature	$89	1, with Super Albums	12 months	12 months from event date
Signature Bundle	$119	3, each with a QR code and invite	24 months	24 months from date of purchase

Per the wedding pricing page, all paid packages include unlimited photos and videos, unlimited guests under a fair use limit of 1,000 per event, slideshow, written and video guestbook, moderation, likes and comments, and the Canva templates. Signature and the Bundle add custom color themes and fonts. The Classic checkout also offers Classic Plus for $10 more, which adds colors and fonts. So Classic Plus costs $49 + $10 = $59.

Picstash reported the same $49, $89 and $119 and said it re-checked in October 2026, which agrees with what we saw.

Party, kids' party and business packages

Guestpix sells different package names depending on the event. That's where the Small, Medium, Large and X-Large names you may have seen come from.

Package	Price	What the page says
Small	$39	Labeled "Photos Only," 3-month upload window
Medium	$49	Photos and videos, 3-month upload window
Large	$89	Gallery plus 3 albums, 12-month upload window
X-Large	$119 in the store listing	Mentioned in the FAQ and general pricing page, not shown on the party page we fetched
Mini Me / Little Legend / Party Hero (kids)	$39 / $49 / $87	Prices from the store listing for the products linked on the kids' party page
Business Bronze / Silver	$49 / $97	One-time. Silver adds albums and white labeling
Multi-Silver / Multi-Gold	$29 / $49 per month	6 or 12 event galleries, 3-month minimum

The Small package is a little unclear. Its heading says photos only, but "Video Uploads" appears in the feature list with no detail. If video matters, buy Medium or ask first.

The business page uses monthly billing on its multi-event plans, so a one-time payment isn't universal at Guestpix. For a single event it is.

Why you'll see other prices online

You will find numbers online that don't match these tables. JoinMyMoment, a competitor, listed roughly $49, $79, $119 and $177 in August 2026. A sponsored post on The Budget Savvy Bride says tiers start at $47. Neither matched what the checkout pages showed us. Prices move, and blogs don't always keep up. This one may lag too.

The only reliable check is the checkout page itself. Go to the pricing page for your event type, choose a package, and read the order summary before you pay. There's also a currency switcher covering USD, AUD, GBP, CAD, EUR and INR, so your local total may not be a straight conversion of the dollar price. If you're buying from outside Australia, Guestpix's help center has an article on international transaction fees. We could only see its title, so read it if your card charges one.

Three things worth reading twice

The Bundle's hosting clock starts when you buy. Classic and Signature hosting runs from your event date. The Signature Bundle runs from the date of purchase, according to the wedding pricing page, and its checkout describes it as two years. Say you buy 14 months before your wedding. You'd have 24 − 14 = 10 months left after the big day, which is less than the 12 months that Signature gives you from the event date for $30 less. Buy the Bundle close to your date, or ask support how the clock works before paying.

Your gallery expires, and extending it costs money. Hosting isn't permanent on any package we found. The store listing shows Extend Classic at $29 and Extend Signature at $49, each for 12 more months, and the Classic extension reopens uploads for 3 more months. The help article says you'll see the cost at checkout, so confirm it there. Working the sums: two years of Classic is $49 + $29 = $78. Two years of Signature is $89 + $49 = $138. The Bundle is $119 for 24 months from purchase, so it may or may not beat Signature plus an extension, depending on how early you buy.

The practical fix costs nothing. Download the ZIP soon after your upload window closes and keep it somewhere you control. The help article on extensions doesn't say what happens to content after a paid gallery expires. On the free plan it's spelled out: expired at 37 days after the event, permanently deleted at 90 unless you upgrade.

The refund promise has conditions. Paid packages list a 14-day money-back guarantee. Guestpix's refund article says refunds are assessed case by case, and that change-of-mind eligibility may depend on whether your gallery has been accessed or used. It also says refunds can't be processed once a chargeback is lodged. Use the free plan to try it first, and if you do set up a paid gallery, don't assume you can return it after a trial run.

The free plan is a demo, and that's fine

The free plan allows up to 50 photos, no video, for unlimited guests. Say you have 120 guests: 50 ÷ 120 is about 0.42 photos per guest. That won't hold a wedding, but it's plenty for seeing how the guest flow feels on your own phone and your mom's. It also doesn't require a credit card, so there's no reason to skip it. If you upgrade later, Guestpix says you pay only the difference, and the store listing agrees: Classic to Signature is $40, which is $89 − $49.

Classic or Signature?

For most weddings the decision is whether $40 is worth 9 more months of uploads (12 − 3), plus Super Albums and themes. If you just want everything collected by the end of summer and you're willing to nag, Classic will likely do. If you want guests able to add photos at the anniversary, or you know your crowd is slow, Signature is the safer buy. Classic Plus at $59 only makes sense if you care about colors and fonts and don't care about the window. The wedding page also lists unlimited Super Albums on Classic with an asterisk, but its limited-time banner names only Signature and the Bundle, so ask before counting on them.

What reviewers say, and how far to trust them

We looked for a neutral verdict and didn't really find one, which is useful to know in itself.

Guestpix's wedding page shows a 4.8 average from 46 reviews, with 83% five-star and 17% four-star. Those reviews are hosted on its own site, so read them accordingly. We found no Trustpilot page at trustpilot.com/review/guestpix.com or the www version, and a Trustpilot-focused search turned up only similarly named companies. Guestpix's profile on The Knot blocked our request, and the WeddingWire link we tried showed an unrelated vendor list, so we can't report ratings from either. A search for Reddit threads came up empty too. Absence of complaints in our searches doesn't prove there are none.

The most detailed review we found is from Dan Broadbent, founder of PicStashio, a direct competitor who discloses that fact. He says he ran a free event in June 2026 as both host and guest. He reports that onboarding was easy, a batch of about 40 photos (around 300MB) uploaded fine, the ZIP delivered full-resolution originals, and manual moderation worked. His complaints: a dated and clunky interface, a mobile host view that just shrinks the desktop layout, a guest gallery that doesn't show a new upload right after it's sent, no signal when the ZIP is ready, and no automatic content filtering. He also says the $49 tier feels thin. He couldn't test paid features such as video and themes.

Lense, another competitor, ranks Guestpix third of its list at 4.5 out of 5, behind itself and Pix Wedding, scoring it full marks on no app download, limits and original quality. Its main criticisms are the limited free tier, the 3-month window on Classic, and no delayed reveal.

The Budget Savvy Bride's write-up is marked as sponsored content, so we'd discount it.

Put that together and the picture is reasonably consistent. Two competitors with every reason to be harsh still say the core job gets done. The complaints are about polish and value, not lost photos. But nearly every source here, including this one, has a stake. Weigh it that way.

Who should look elsewhere

Guestpix has no answer, or only a partial one, for a few situations.

You want guests shooting during the event, not sorting afterward. Guestpix is a collection tool. Its results depend on guests remembering to upload. Nothing about it changes how people behave at the party itself. If you want the night to be the activity, a live camera is a different kind of product.

Your venue has bad signal. Guestpix's FAQ says guests need Wi-Fi or mobile data to upload. They can always shoot on their normal camera and upload later, and with a 3-month window that works fine. But if you're counting on the photos appearing during the party at a barn with no reception, or on a live slideshow, plan for Wi-Fi.

You want a true delayed reveal. Guestpix has a setting, "Allow guests to view the gallery," and when it's off, guests see only their own uploads. You can turn it back on when you like. That is a perfectly workable manual version of a reveal, and we'd rather tell you than pretend it doesn't exist. What it doesn't have is the camera side of the idea. Guests have already seen their own photos on their own phones, and there's no shot count or shared moment built into it. The help article doesn't say which packages include this setting, so check before relying on it.

You want a consistent look. Guestpix keeps photos as guests took them, which is honest but visually mixed. Its themes style the gallery, not the pictures.

You're planning a big event. The fair use limit is 1,000 guests per event, and larger events may need a custom package. That's a generous ceiling for most people, but a large conference should ask for a quote.

When Revel fits instead

This is the part where we talk about ourselves, so adjust for bias. Revel is built around a different idea from Guestpix. It isn't a gallery that collects photos. It's a shared camera that guests use during the event. You create a Moment, guests join by QR code, link or NFC tag, and they shoot straight from their phone browser with no app or account.

	Guestpix	Revel
Camera-roll uploads	Yes	Yes, photos taken during the Moment only
Video	Paid packages	No
Video or written guestbook	Yes	No
Invitations and RSVP	Yes	No
Shot limits per guest	No, unlimited on paid packages	Yes, set by the host, with a live countdown
Delayed reveal	Manual gallery-view toggle	Built in, gallery opens for everyone at once when the Moment ends
Photo look	As shot	50+ film-style filters, host picks one, originals saved too
Works with no signal	Needs internet to upload	Guests can shoot offline, photos sync on reconnect
Live slideshow	Yes	Yes, moderated feed to any screen
Host moderation	Yes	Yes, approve every photo before the gallery goes live
Free tier	50 photos, unlimited guests	Up to 10 participants
Paid pricing	Published at checkout, one-time	One-time per event, in-app, scales with guest count

Revel's limits are deliberate, and they cost something. You can't collect the photos your aunt took on her real camera, and you can't get video. If those matter more than the experience on the night, Guestpix is the better buy, and it isn't close.

Revel makes more sense when the shooting itself is the point. A shot limit makes guests think before they press the button, a bit like a disposable camera on a reception table. Hiding the photos until the Moment ends gives everyone a reason to look at the gallery together the next morning. One film look across every guest's phone makes the set read as a single album. And offline capture means the barn with no reception stops being a problem for guests, though you as host still need internet to create and manage the Moment.

That's our case for weddings and company events, where the automatic logo watermark helps too. Plenty of hosts may reasonably want both a live camera for the night and a collection gallery for the months after. They don't overlap much.

Guestpix alternatives worth checking

All of these were checked in November 2026. Several prices come from the vendors themselves, so confirm before buying.

Wedibox. Closest to Guestpix if you want more wedding planning on one QR code. Per its pricing page: free for 50 photos, then $29 (Embed, for an existing wedding website), $49 (Wedding, unlimited uploads, audio guestbook and live slideshow, 6-month window) and $79 (All-In-One, adds RSVP, seating chart and registry links, 1-year window). The audio guestbook is the main thing we didn't find at Guestpix.

GuestCam. Per its pricing page: Standard is $49 (listed at $55) with a 6-month upload window and 12 months of storage; Premium is $97 (listed at $110) with 12 months and 14 months, up to 6 main galleries. Both include unlimited guests, photos and videos, a live slideshow and an audio guestbook. Against Guestpix Classic at the same price, you get a longer window. Its windows start on your event date.

Kululu. Guests join by link or QR with no app or account and add photos, videos and text posts. It has Free, Plus and Pro plans, but its pricing page showed no dollar amounts when we fetched it, only a 50% off promotion. Its help center lists 100 free uploads, competitors list Plus at $39, and a Kululu partner page shows Pro at $99. Our Kululu review covers the upload caps and how long access lasts.

Joy. A sensible option if you're already using Joy for your wedding website and registry, which it says are free. Its blog describes guests using the free Joy app to access event features, so expect more friction than a QR-only tool. Check Joy's help center for current storage limits.

Google Photos shared albums. Free to set up with a Google account, and anyone with the link can view and add photos, per Google's help page. There's no RSVP or guestbook. For a small family event, that may be all you need. We've compared this route in more detail on our shared albums page.

Lense. An event camera closer to Revel than to Guestpix. Its pricing page lists a free plan for up to 7 guests and tiers by guest count, with 25 captures per guest included and an add-on for unlimited captures. Video clips up to 1 minute are an add-on. Its blog lists $34.99 for up to 100 guests. Our Lense comparison has more.

Guestpix FAQ

Is Guestpix legit?

It looks like an established business, with a working checkout, a help center and a track record of press coverage, and competitors who've reviewed it say the basic job works. We haven't used it, and we didn't find a neutral third-party review or a Trustpilot page. Run the free plan before paying.

How much does Guestpix cost?

In November 2026 the wedding checkout showed $49 for Classic, $89 for Signature and $119 for the Signature Bundle, all one-time. Party packages start at $39. There's also a free plan capped at 50 photos, with no video.

Is there a Guestpix app?

Guests don't need one. Guestpix runs in the browser through a QR code or private link, and we found no App Store listing or download instructions in our searches. Hosts manage events through a host dashboard.

Can guests upload after the event?

Yes. The window depends on the package: 30 days on free, 3 months on Classic, Small and Medium, 12 months on Signature and Large, and 24 months on the Signature Bundle. You can also buy an extension if the window closes.

How long does Guestpix keep my photos?

Twelve months from the event date on Classic and Signature, and 24 months from purchase on the Signature Bundle, with paid extensions available. On the free plan, photos are permanently deleted 90 days after the event unless you upgrade. Download your ZIP early either way.

Can I stop guests seeing photos until later?

Yes, in part. Turning off the guest-view setting means guests see only their own uploads until you turn it back on, and moderation holds uploads until you approve them. The help articles don't say which packages include each, though the wedding pricing page lists moderation on all paid packages.

The next step

If your guests already have the photos you want, or you need video and RSVPs, start with Guestpix's free plan and send the link to one friend. You'll know within ten minutes if it suits you.

If what you want is the disposable-camera feeling at the party itself, try the same test with us. Download Revel, create a free Moment for up to 10 people, set a shot limit, hide the photos, and have a friend scan the code. Then wait for the reveal.
