> **EDIT (October 9, 2026):** Since this post, export all photos, password protection, per-guest photo limits, and camera lock have shipped.

First — thank you. Genuinely. The feedback and the growth over the past few months have been better than we could have hoped for. Seeing people use Dispo88 at weddings, birthdays, camping trips, brand activations... it's why we keep building. 🙏

We wanted to share a bit about where things are headed — what's changing with pricing, what's coming for the product, and what we think makes Dispo88 special for the kinds of moments it's built for.

## How pricing is changing

Up until now, we've offered a single Lifetime Premium deal: $39 CAD once, and every camera you ever create is fully unlocked — unlimited photos, the full shared album, everything.

That deal is ending soon.

Going forward, we're switching to a **per-camera upgrade model**. Instead of one flat fee for your whole account, you pay to unlock individual cameras based on what you need for that specific moment.

Here's what the tiers look like:

| Feature | Free | Crew | Event |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max photos | 88 | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Everyone sees every photo | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| QR code | — | — | ✓ |
| QR poster builder | — | — | ✓ |
| Custom guest hint | — | — | ✓ |
| Custom photo dev time | — | — | Coming soon |
| Price | Free | $8.88 CAD | $39 CAD |

**Free** is great for a casual hangout — 88 shots, shared link, no setup needed.

**Crew** ($8.88 per camera) is for your friend group. Unlimited photos so nobody runs out of shots.

**Event** ($39 per camera) is where things get interesting.

## What Event camera is built for

We built the Event tier with one kind of moment in mind: the ones that matter.

Weddings. Brand activations. Conferences. Product launches. Parties where you actually want a record of what happened.

When you're hosting something like that, you want people to just pick up their phone and shoot — no friction, no limits. And you want a camera that's set up *for the occasion*, not just a generic link you text around.

Event cameras give you:

- **QR code + printable poster** — drop a link and people won't find it. Print a postcard-sized QR poster, stick it at the bar or on the table, and guests scan it in two seconds. Three poster styles, fully customizable colors and copy.
- **Unlimited photos** — obvious, but worth saying. Nobody runs out at the worst moment.
- **Every photo for everyone** — after the night, everyone gets access to the whole album. Download, share, relive it.
- **Custom guest hint** — set a message that guests see before they shoot. "Capture the couple!" or "Behind the scenes only — keep it candid." Little touch, makes a difference.
- **Custom photo development time** *(coming soon)* — photos don't appear instantly; each one develops for an hour. Choosing your own delay is on the way.

For a wedding, imagine this: you hand every table a QR poster with the couple's names on it. Guests shoot all night. Nobody sees a shot until it's developed an hour later, and by the next morning the whole night is waiting in the album. That's Dispo88 doing what it's supposed to do.

For a brand event, you get authentic, unfiltered photos from your guests' perspectives — no photographer, no staging, just real moments that your team can actually use.

## What we're building next for Event tier

We have several things in progress that we're genuinely excited about.

**Livemode** is the one we can't wait to ship. When you're running an event camera, you'll get a live dashboard showing you who's taking photos, how many shots have been taken, and — the fun part — a live presentation view where newly developed photos appear on screen in real time. Think of it like a photobooth slideshow, but it's everyone's camera. Put it on a TV at the venue. Watch the night unfold.

**Export all photos** is coming too, and it's bigger than it sounds. One click, every photo from your camera downloaded as a zip. No hunting through the album, no saving one-by-one. For events with dozens of guests and hundreds of shots, this is the thing that makes the day after actually enjoyable.

**Password protection** — set a password on your camera so only the people you want shooting can join. Great for private events where you don't want strangers stumbling in via a shared QR code.

**More camera customization options** are also on the way — per-guest photo limits (great for managed events where you want fairness), choosing your own photo development delay, and more ways to set the tone for your guests before they shoot.

We're also exploring **full camera re-branding** for bigger brand events — custom colors, logos, and styling so the camera feels like it belongs to your event, not a third-party app. Nothing to announce yet, but it's on our radar.

We know "coming soon" is a promise we have to earn. We're working on it.

## What happens to Lifetime?

If you already have Lifetime Premium — nothing changes. You keep everything, forever. Every camera you create is automatically Event tier. You're locked in at the original deal and we're grateful for your early support.

**Update:** the lifetime option has now closed. Every camera can still be upgraded to Crew or Event on its own.
