Kululu vs guestpix
Kululu vs GuestPix: which guest photo gallery wins?
Both collect guest photos from a QR code with no app and a one-time fee, and both now have a free tier. Kululu's paid entry is cheaper; GuestPix includes moderation on its paid plans and gives much longer windows.
Create a gallery — free, in a minuteIf the budget is the constraint, both now start free, so look at what the free tier actually covers. Kululu's allows up to 100 uploads with video, but uploads close 24 hours after the event and files are kept for seven days. GuestPix's allows 50 photos and no video, but keeps uploads open for 30 days after the event and deletes the gallery after 90. On paid plans Kululu is cheaper to enter — $39 against GuestPix's $49 — and moderation flips the picture completely: GuestPix includes it at that $49 entry, while Kululu keeps it behind the $99 Pro plan.
So the decision is really about whether you need to approve photographs before guests see them. Two things they share: neither needs a guest app or a guest account, and both charge once per event. Where they differ again is the tail — GuestPix hosts for twelve months on every paid tier, while Kululu's storage runs from seven days on free to a year on Pro.
Updated 14 October 2026
Kululu starts free (up to 100 uploads) and its first paid tier is $39, with video on every plan — but photo moderation is locked to the top $99 Pro plan, and the free tier is short-lived (uploads open 24 hours from the event date, files kept 7 days). GuestPix now has a free tier too — 50 photos, no video, uploads open for 30 days after the event, gallery deleted after 90 — and its paid plans start at $49 one-time (Classic), rising to $89 and $119 for longer upload windows and hosting, with unlimited photos and videos, a written and video guestbook and moderation.
So the honest split is: pick Kululu if you want the cheapest paid plan or video on a cheap plan, and GuestPix if you want moderation and a long hosting window without buying a top tier. If you want to approve photos without paying anything, that is where ClinkShot sits as the third option: moderation and a voice guestbook are on its free plan, with uploads open 30 days after the event and the gallery kept 90 days.

Frequently asked questions
Is Kululu cheaper than GuestPix?
Both start free. On paid plans Kululu is cheaper to enter — $39 against GuestPix's $49 for weddings. But Kululu's moderation sits on its $99 Pro plan, so "cheaper" depends on the features you need.
Which one has a free plan?
Both now do. Kululu's free tier allows up to 100 uploads but closes uploads 24 hours after the event and keeps files for 7 days; GuestPix's allows 50 photos (no video), keeps uploads open 30 days and deletes the gallery after 90. ClinkShot also has a free plan: 50 photos, a 30-day upload window and 90-day storage, with moderation included.
Do guests need an app for either?
No. Kululu, GuestPix and ClinkShot are all browser-based — guests scan a QR code and upload without installing anything or creating an account.
What is the third option?
ClinkShot puts moderation and a voice guestbook on its free plan as well — neither Kululu nor GuestPix lists moderation on theirs — and strips EXIF/GPS metadata from every photo. Its free windows are shorter than GuestPix's; its $49 Pro keeps uploads open for 180 days.
