Simple Booth's five plans

All plans require an iPad as the booth device

Plan Price Notes
Weekly $24/week Short-term option for a single event weekend
Entry monthly $49/month The cheapest ongoing plan — $588/year if kept running
Mid tier $99/month More branding and capture options
Upper tier $149/month Steps toward the enterprise feature set
Top tier $249/month The $99 to $249 jump is largely compliance features: age gate, moderation, gallery fine print, in-app legal terms & opt-in, PII management & purging, security questionnaires

If you're a brand activation agency that needs opt-in legal flows at scale, those top tiers earn their price. If you're running a wedding, a party, or a company event, you're paying booth-rental money for a subscription.

Why choose Knipsmig?

The whole room, not one corner

Simple Booth is a stationary booth: one iPad, one camera angle, one line of guests waiting their turn.

Knipsmig makes every guest's phone a camera. The dance floor, the speeches, table 14's inside joke — photos come from everywhere at once, no queue.

One-time, not monthly

Simple Booth's cheapest ongoing plan is $49/month — $588/year if you keep it active between events.

Knipsmig's photo sharing is free, and the photobooth bundle is a one-time $49. Pay once, use it at every event you ever run.

Your iPad still gets to play

Like the selfie-station experience? You don't have to give it up.

Knipsmig's photobooth mode turns any iPad or tablet into a selfie station that feeds the same shared album as everyone's phones — booth photos and candids in one gallery.

The big-screen moment, free

A booth prints or shares individual shots. The crowd-pleaser is seeing everyone's photos on the big screen.

Every Knipsmig event includes a live slideshow page — open it on any screen and photos appear in real time, with optional host approval before anything shows.

Which one is right for you?

Choose Knipsmig if...
  • You want photos from the whole event, not one booth corner
  • You'd rather pay once (or nothing) than monthly
  • You still want a tablet selfie station — for a one-time $49
  • You want guests uploading with zero app installs or accounts
  • You want a free live slideshow on the big screen
  • You're a host or planner, not a brand activation agency
Choose Simple Booth if...
  • You want a polished, dedicated booth experience with branded overlays
  • You run brand activations that need legal opt-in and PII workflows
  • You need age gates and gallery fine print for regulated campaigns
  • A recurring subscription fits how you bill clients
  • You already own an iPad you can dedicate to the booth

Bottom line: Simple Booth is a professional booth product priced for agencies. For hosts who mostly want everyone's photos in one place — with an optional booth on the side — Knipsmig does it for free or a single one-time payment.

Common questions

How much does Simple Booth cost?

Simple Booth has five public tiers: $24/week, $49/month, $99/month, $149/month, and $249/month. All plans require an iPad as the booth device. The jump from $99 to $249 mostly buys compliance and enterprise features like age gates, moderation, in-app legal terms and opt-in, and PII management.

Does Simple Booth require an iPad?

Yes. Simple Booth runs as an iPad app — the iPad is the booth. That means one device, one camera angle, and one line of guests. Knipsmig's core photo sharing needs no dedicated device at all: every guest's phone is the camera.

Is there a one-time alternative to Simple Booth's subscription?

Yes. Knipsmig's photobooth mode turns any iPad or tablet into a selfie station for a one-time $49 — compared to $49 or more per month recurring. And the underlying event album, QR sharing, and live slideshow are free.

Is Knipsmig really free?

Yes. Unlimited photos, videos, and guests at no cost — no trial, no watermark tier. Events stay for 1 month; a one-time $29 keeps one event forever, or $89 once covers every event you ever create. The photobooth bundle is a separate one-time $49.

Which is better for a wedding or party?

If you want a polished, stationary booth experience with branded overlays and are happy paying monthly, Simple Booth is a strong product. If you want photos from the whole room — every table, the dance floor, the parking lot — plus an optional tablet selfie station without a subscription, Knipsmig covers it for free or a one-time payment.
