Guestpix alternative
The wedding QR gallery — without the renewal
One payment of $29 keeps every guest photo and video online forever. Not for 12 months. Forever.
No credit card. No signup. Ready in under a minute.
Guestpix is a strong, well-marketed product with guestbook and RSVP features built in. It also charges €39-99 and stops hosting your photos after 12 months. QR Maker takes the opposite bet: strip the extras, ship faster onboarding, and keep every photo online forever for a single $29.

Common questions before you switch
How is the gallery really kept forever?
The full-resolution photos live on paid cloud storage. Your $29 covers the lifetime cost of hosting them. There is no renewal to remember and nothing switches off in year two.
Do I really not need to sign up to try it?
You do not. Create a free gallery, print the QR tents (we generate them), share it — the first 20 photos are free. If you like it, unlock Memories for $29 whenever you want, even the morning of the wedding or after.
What if I want a guestbook, RSVP or invitations too?
We don't ship those. If any of them are must-haves for your wedding, Guestpix is a genuinely good option. If what you really want is every photo and video in one gallery, kept forever, $29 is enough.
Can I move from Guestpix to QR Maker later?
Yes. You can create a QR Maker gallery in under a minute at any time — before, during, or after your event. The one-time payment applies whenever you decide.
Frequently asked
Do I need to install an app?
No — for you or your guests. The QR opens in the phone camera and the gallery works in any browser.
How many guests can upload at the same time?
No cap. 200 guests can upload simultaneously without slowing each other down.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. Create a free gallery, print the QR, share it — the first 20 photos are free. Unlock Memories any time to remove the cap.
What happens after the event?
On the free tier: uploads stop after 45 days, photos are removed after 90. On Memories: everything stays online forever and you can download the full-resolution ZIP any time.
Is there a bulk plan for photographers or planners?
Yes — Pro+ ($69/mo) includes 10 galleries per month with the Memories features, a brand kit and the client photo selector for prints.
