Enterprise event photo sharing with zero friction
Poolr is an event photo collection app that gathers every guest's photos into one full-resolution shared album with a single QR code scan, no app download or account required. Built for teams, venues, and repeat organisers who need reliable photo collection at scale without operational overhead.
Why friction kills event photo collection
Traditional photo sharing workflows ask guests to download apps, create accounts, or email files. Each barrier loses photos. Poolr removes every barrier. When a guest scans the QR code at your event, they upload directly from their phone's browser. No install. No password. One tap per photo. For enterprise teams running multiple events per month, this difference compounds into thousands more photos collected, higher guest participation rates, and measurably less support overhead. As of June 2026, this is the most common reason venue managers and corporate event teams choose Poolr over email chains or shared folders.
Built for teams and repeat hosts
If your organisation runs ten or fifty events a year, per-event pricing adds up and admin becomes manual drudgery. Poolr's Host+ subscription (£49.99 per year) lets one team member run unlimited events without repurchasing access each time. For larger operations, Pro Organiser (£89.99 per year) and Teams (£699 per year) unlock shared workspaces, team member role management, and bulk download tools that treat photo collection as infrastructure, not a side task. Your team codes access once and reuses it. Guests experience the same frictionless upload, every single event.
The mechanics: speed and scale
Host creates an event in Poolr (on iOS, Android, or web), gets a QR code, and displays it on a screen or prints it on signage. Guests pull out their phones, scan, and upload from the browser in under ten seconds per photo. Every photo arrives full-resolution into a live-moderated gallery. Enterprise tiers unlock live photo wall display (real-time slideshow on your event screen), bulk ZIP download for post-event workflows, and face recognition to surface key moments. There is no cap on guest count or event size. The platform scales from birthday parties to multi-thousand-person conferences without architectural strain.
Why no app download matters at enterprise scale
Every guest is a stranger or semi-stranger at your event. Asking them to download software creates friction at the moment you want to capture their engagement. Poolr's browser-based upload eliminates the App Store lookup, install wait, or app permission dialogue that kills participation. Venues and corporate teams report 2 to 3 times more guest uploads when friction is removed. For event planners offering Poolr as part of your service package, this difference becomes a competitive advantage and a selling point to clients who measure success by photo coverage and attendee experience.
Photo management and privacy at scale
Pools are ephemeral by design. Free events expire after 7 days; paid tiers let you set expiration or keep photos permanently. Hosts control who sees the gallery (shareable link, password protected, or private). Live moderation means inappropriate uploads can be flagged and removed before they appear in the shared album. For corporate or regulated events, this level of control is non-negotiable. Poolr handles the heavy lifting; your team retains editorial oversight without needing to upload files manually or chase guests for photos.
Beyond photos: video uploads and printed photobooks
Occasion tier and above unlock guest video uploads, custom event frame overlays (branded borders for corporate events), audio guestbook, and automated photobook generation. Upload photos on day one; receive a printed book by week two. These add-ons turn Poolr from a collection tool into a keepsake and event marketing asset. Teams running customer events or fundraisers benefit from photobooks as thank-you gifts; wedding venues use them as an upsell alongside photography packages.

Frequently asked questions
Do guests need to download an app to upload photos?
No. Guests scan the QR code and upload directly from their phone's browser. No app install, no account, no sign-up. One scan, upload, done.
What's the difference between Poolr's pricing tiers?
Free tier holds 30 photos for 7 days. Moment (£8.99) holds 200 photos. Occasion (£19.99) is unlimited photos with no expiry, live photo wall, audiobook, and photobooks. Forever (£34.99) adds 2-year retention and face recognition. For repeat hosts, Host+ (£49.99/year) covers unlimited events on annual subscription.
Can I display photos on a screen during my event?

Is Poolr a long-term photo storage service?
No. Poolr is designed for event-specific photo collection. Free events expire after 7 days; paid tiers let you set your own expiration or keep photos indefinitely. For long-term personal photo backup, use your phone's cloud service instead.
