What is the difference between the live slideshow and live video broadcasting?
The live photo slideshow projects guest photos on a screen at the venue and is included with every plan. Live video broadcasting streams your ceremony to people who are not there, and it costs $39 one-time as a Live Pass.
One-time. No account needed to buy — about a minute.
Short answer
The live slideshow is photos, in the room. Live broadcasting is video, to people elsewhere — a separate product priced at $39 one-time.
How each one works
The slideshow pulls from the real-time gallery: guests scan the QR code, upload from their phone browser, and their photos appear on the venue screen within moments. Nothing extra to buy. Live Pass is a private video broadcast of the event itself, sent to remote viewers at an unguessable link that search engines never index.
The honest limits
Each broadcast is capped at 90 minutes and 100 concurrent viewers. The stream is recorded, but keeping the replay is the Broadcast Recording add-on, sold after the stream. Live is not included with Event Pass or a legacy Wedding Pass unless the receipt explicitly says Live. Free Preview includes only a 5-minute live test for 2 viewers.
Which pass fits
If everyone you care about is in the room, Event Pass at $29 is enough — the slideshow comes with it. If relatives are watching from another country, buy Picsui Complete at $49 for photos plus one broadcast, or Live Pass alone at $39 one-time if you only need the stream.
How to do it
- Decide whether your audience is in the room or remote.
- For the room: display the QR code and open the slideshow on the venue screen.
- For remote viewers: buy Live Pass or Picsui Complete and share the private stream link.
- Keep the broadcast within 90 minutes and 100 viewers.
- Add the Broadcast Recording after the stream if you want the replay.
