They came to meet you.
Get their photos back.
You make videos, streams or posts for an audience you mostly see as numbers, and today a few hundred of them are queuing around the block of a park, a cafe or a convention hall to meet you. Every person in that line takes a selfie with you, films a quick clip and posts it somewhere you will never find. Your collab friends are shooting content in the corner, a brand partner has a table by the door, and the person filming for your channel is trying to cover all of it alone. One QR code collects what your fans captured, so you can say thank you with their photos, with their permission.
One-time. No account needed to buy — about a minute.
The moments guests actually photograph at creator meetups
Why creator meetups work better on Picsui
Written for the person hosting this one, and checked against what the product actually does.
A thank-you post made of their photos
The best thank-you after a meetup is the fans themselves: the selfies from the line, the fan art, the kid who cried. Fans upload straight from the page they scanned, at full resolution, and you download the ones you want. Put a line on the card saying uploads may be reshared, and check with anyone you plan to feature.
Host review when the line is full of teenagers
A lot of creator audiences are young, and a meetup gallery should not show a minor to strangers before an adult has looked. Turn on host review and every fan upload waits in your queue until you or your manager approve it. Nothing a fan sends appears in the gallery or on the screen until then, and you can remove anything later.
Messages from fans, in their own words
Fans who froze when they reached the front of the line usually know exactly what they wanted to say an hour later. A video message of up to 30 seconds or a written guestbook entry gives them a second chance, and gives you something to watch on the drive home that reminds you why the channel exists.
No app. No account. One scan.
Guests point their camera at a QR code and are uploading in seconds. Nobody installs anything, nobody creates a login, and the grandparents can do it as easily as the teenagers.
unlimited photo and video uploads
Every guest can send as much as they like: phone photos, iPhone HEICs, short videos, up to a fair-use bound of 25 GB per event. Originals are kept at full resolution.
Video messages, recorded on the spot
A 30-second video toast recorded in the browser, no editing, no re-uploading. The guest who would never write in a book will happily talk to a phone.
A guestbook with your own question
Replace the generic prompt with one that fits the day. Written messages are collected alongside the photos and kept with the gallery.
Full-resolution downloads
Download any photo, or the whole event as one archive, at original quality. What guests uploaded is what you keep — no compression, no watermark on paid events.
Private by default, never indexed
The gallery is only reachable by the link or code you share. Guest pages are blocked from search engines and named AI crawlers, and you can close the gallery whenever you choose.
How it works
Set up in a minute. Collect for the whole event.
Create the event with your channel name, and set a guestbook question that sounds like you, not like a brand.
Post the QR code on your channels the night before and print it on cards for the line, the merch table and the photo spot.
Fans upload their selfies, clips and fan art while they wait, and leave a message after they have met you.
Approve uploads, download the ones you want to reshare, and post a thank-you with the gallery link for everyone who came.
Try uploading as a guest.
Scan this with your phone the way a guest at your event would. Choose a sample photo and upload it from your browser, then open the demo gallery to see it land. In this public demo, photos appear at once and videos wait for a person to approve them; at your own event, you decide.
- Scan the code with your phone camera — it opens straight in the browser.
- Upload a sample photo. Look for the upload confirmation so you know it reached the host.
Use a sample you are comfortable sharing with Picsui. Please keep personal or sensitive photos out of the demo.

This is the same kind of code your guests scan at your event.
Getting the most from creator meetups
Hand out the code while people are queuing, not after they have met you. The line is long, phones are already out and fans are filming the room to show friends who could not come. A volunteer walking the line with cards, or a sign every few metres, turns that waiting time into uploads. If there is a screen at the venue, run the slideshow so people in the line see photos from the front appearing as they go, which also tells them roughly how long they still have to wait.
Decide your consent wording before the day and put it on the card. Something short, like a note that photos uploaded here may appear in a thank-you post and that you can ask for any photo to be removed, is clear enough for a fan and protects you from awkward messages later. For anyone who looks under sixteen, check with the parent or guardian before featuring them, and keep host review on so nothing of a young fan appears in the shared gallery until someone on your team has seen it.
Brand partners at a creator meetup want to know what the day did for them. If your management or an agency in the Picsui Partner programme runs the event, it can carry the brand's 'Sponsored by' link on the gallery and upload page, and taps are counted per event so you have a number to report. If the brand brought a photo booth that saves to a folder on a laptop, it can sync into the same gallery too, through a booth link opened in Chrome or Edge. That does not work with booths running on an iPad.
Common questions about creator meetups
Can I repost photos that fans upload?
The gallery gives you the photos at full resolution, but whether you repost a particular fan's picture is about permission, not software. Say on the QR card and on stage that uploads may be shared in a thank-you post, and honour any request to leave a photo out or to take one down. For young fans, check with a parent before you feature them. Most creators post a grid of the crowd rather than single fans, which keeps everyone comfortable.
How do I keep minors safe in the gallery?
Turn on host review before the event. Every upload then waits in your queue until you or someone on your team approves it, so nothing a fan sends appears in the gallery or on a venue screen without an adult looking first. Photos from a synced photo booth are the exception, because they skip the queue. The gallery is private by default and blocked from search engines, so photos are not discoverable by strangers. You can delete any photo at any time, and you can close uploads as soon as the meetup ends.
Do fans need an account or an app?
No. Fans scan the code with their phone camera and the upload page opens in the browser. They pick photos or videos from the camera roll, record a short video message or write in the guestbook, and that is it. Nothing to install and no sign-up, which matters when half the line is on a nearly flat battery and the venue Wi-Fi is struggling. The page works on any recent iPhone or Android phone.
Can a brand sponsor appear in the gallery?
Only on a partner event. If your manager, agency or event company runs the meetup through the Picsui Partner programme, the event can show a 'Sponsored by' link under the logo on the gallery, the upload page and the name form, and the sponsor's name on the slideshow. Each tap is counted per event, without bots, so the brand sees how many fans tapped through. A plain Event Pass shows the gallery without sponsor branding or click counts.
What does a creator meetup cost?
An Event Pass is $29, paid once, with no subscription and no charge per fan. It includes unlimited uploads, host review, full-resolution downloads and 365 days of hosting, which covers a big meetup and the weeks of reposting after it. A meetup tour across several cities is usually one event per city, so each crowd gets its own gallery. The Free Preview lets you test the upload page and the slideshow before you commit.
