One party QR code. Every picture from the night.

Nobody hired a photographer, so your guests are it. Put the code on the table and the whole night ends up in one album, with no app for anyone scanning it.

Why a party needs one more than a wedding does

The product is the same. What is different is that at a party there is no other record of the night.

  • Nobody hired a photographer

    At a wedding the guests fill the gaps around a professional. At a party there is no professional, so the guests are the entire record of the night. Whatever they do not upload, nobody gets.

  • The pictures are on forty phones

    They always exist. They are just scattered across camera rolls, half of them behind people you will not message, and the group chat dies three days later with most of them still on somebody’s phone.

  • It happens again next year

    A wedding is once. Birthdays are not. The album from this one is the reason people scan without asking what it is at the next one.

What is a party QR code?

A QR code for party pictures is a code that opens your album in a guest’s phone browser. They point their camera at it, the upload page opens, and they add the photos and videos they took. There is no app to install and no account to create, which is the difference between people meaning to send you their pictures and actually doing it.

People call it a QR code for party photos, a party picture code or just the code on the table. It is the same thing, and it behaves the same way whichever way you say it.

Everything lands in one album that you own. You can download every original at full resolution, and the album stays open for a year so the pictures that arrive four days later still have somewhere to go.

How to collect party pictures with a QR code

Three steps, and the first one takes under a minute.

Every step in full

    Put the code where the drinks are

    On the table, behind the bar, on the screen, or sent in the group chat. Guests scan with the camera app they already have.

    Wake up to the whole night

    Photos and videos land as they are taken, and keep landing for days afterwards once people have been through their camera rolls.

Three steps, and the party has a camera.

The parts people actually use at a party

Not a feature list. These are the three that change what the night feels like, before the one that changes it most.

  • Live slideshow

    At a wedding the slideshow runs behind dinner. At a party it is the entertainment: put it on the TV and people start shooting for it.

  • Voice messages

    Guests record a short message from their phone. At two in the morning these are the thing you will actually replay.

  • Approval, if you want it

    Review uploads before they appear, or leave it open and hide anything later. Both work during the night as well as before it.

One code, and the night documents itself.

The party camera

A disposable camera, on every guest’s phone

The same QR code opens a disposable camera app with real Snapchat AR lenses. No app to download for that either, and you decide whether guests see the album as it fills or only afterwards.

  • Real Snapchat AR lenses, not colour filters
  • Everyone puts a name in first, so you know who shot what
  • Nobody sees a thing until you open the gallery, if you want it that way
  • Works in the browser, like everything else here
21 lenses

Birthdays, engagements and every other kind of party

One code works for whatever you are celebrating. From a first birthday to the leaving do, everyone adds their pictures to the same album.

  • Birthdays

    An 18th, a 21st, a 30th, a 40th, a 50th. The bigger the number the more people travel for it, and the more phones end up in the room. One code on the tables collects all of them.

  • Engagements

    The one party where everybody photographs the same two people all night and none of it reaches them. Guests upload straight from the browser, so the couple wake up to the whole evening.

  • Hen and stag dos

    Several days, several locations, several group chats. One album holds the lot, and people keep adding to it on the journey home.

  • Leaving dos and retirements

    Photos and a voice message from everyone who came, which is a better card than a card.

  • Anniversaries and family parties

    Guests who never download anything are exactly who this is built for. There is no app to install and no account to create, so age is not a barrier to joining in.

  • House parties

    No venue, no photographer, no plan. Put the code on the fridge and let the night document itself.

Where to put the code

A party has no welcome sign and no table plan. It has a bar, a table and a screen.

  • On the tables

    Where people already are, and where they are sitting long enough to read something.

  • Behind the bar

    Everyone visits the bar. Nobody visits the noticeboard.

  • On the screen

    If the slideshow is running, the code can sit in the corner of it all night.

  • In the group chat

    Send the link the day before. Half your uploads will come from people who scanned nothing.

Questions, answered

How do I make a QR code for party pictures?

Create your party in PixelParty and your party QR code is generated instantly. Name the event, pick a date and a look, and the code and a private link exist the moment you save. Print it, put it on a screen, or send the link in the group chat.

Do my guests need an app?

No. Guests scan the code with the camera app already on their phone, the upload page opens in their browser, and they choose photos and tap upload. No download, no account, no password.

How much does it cost?

One payment for the party, not a subscription. Classic is £34.99 and covers up to 500 guests with unlimited photos and videos. You can create the event and try it free first: the first 10 uploads cost nothing and no card is needed to start.

Where should I put the party QR code?

On the tables, behind the bar, and in the corner of the slideshow if you are running one. Send the link in the group chat the day before as well: a good share of uploads come from people who never scanned anything.

Can I stop something embarrassing appearing?

Yes. Turn on approval and nothing appears until you have seen it, or leave it open and hide anything afterwards. Both work during the party as well as before it, and hiding a picture does not delete it.

Does it work for a birthday, an engagement or a leaving do?

Yes. Party pictures work the same way whatever the occasion: a code, a browser, one album. What changes is the name on it and the look you pick.

Can I use it again for the next one?

Yes. You can create and manage several events from one account. Each event is paid for separately and each keeps its own album.

How long do the pictures stay up?

One year on Classic and two years on Plus. You can download every original at full resolution in one go at any point in that time.

Every camera in the room, one album
