A free wedding QR code that actually collects your photos
Plenty of sites hand you a free QR image and stop there. PixBearer links your code to a free event page, so guests scan it and their photos and videos save to your own Google Drive.
Get your free QR code in three steps
1. Create a free event
Sign in with Google. No credit card. PixBearer creates a private folder in your own Google Drive and gives your event a link and QR code.
2. Print and display the code
Download the QR code and put it on your welcome sign and table cards. Add one line: scan to share your photos with us.
3. Guests scan and upload
Guests use their normal phone camera. Photos and videos arrive in your Google Drive at original quality, during the event and for as long as you keep the link open.
What free actually means here
A real free plan, not a trial
100 photo and video uploads and 10 GB per event, with unlimited guests. No countdown, no card on file, no surprise paywall on the wedding day.
No expiry on your photos
Free galleries on most apps close after 7 to 30 days. Your PixBearer uploads sit in your own Google Drive, so there is no hosting window at all.
No watermark, full quality
Your QR code, your sign, and your photos carry no watermark. Files keep their original resolution, ready to print.
Guests need nothing
No app, no account, no typing a gallery code. Scan, pick photos, upload. It works on every modern phone.
Videos included
The free plan accepts videos up to 250 MB and 2 minutes each, so the toasts and the first dance make it into the collection too.
Upgrade only if you outgrow it
If your crowd shares more than 100 files, one $19 payment removes the caps for that event. One time, no subscription. Most small weddings never need it.
One-time. No subscription. Yours forever.

Free wedding QR code FAQ
What exactly is included in the free plan?
100 photo and video uploads and 10 GB of media per event, with unlimited guests. Photos up to 15 MB and videos up to 250 MB and 2 minutes each. Everything saves to your own Google Drive at original quality.
Is it free forever or a free trial?
Free forever. There is no trial clock and no credit card. Paid plans exist for hosts who want unlimited uploads or extras like a live gallery, and they are one-time payments, not subscriptions.
What is the catch?
The honest answer: the free plan caps at 100 uploads and 10 GB, and the guest page shows a small Powered by PixBearer line. That is it. Your photos are never held back, watermarked, or deleted.
Does the free QR code expire?
No. The code encodes your event link, so it keeps working for as long as your event exists. Guests can even upload the day after the wedding.
Can I get a plain free QR code without creating an event?
Yes. Our free wedding QR code generator turns any link into a print-ready PNG or SVG with no signup and no watermark. Use it for your wedding website or registry.
How does this compare with other apps' free plans?
Most competitors cap free plans around 50 photos with short windows, for example 7 days of gallery access or 24 hours of upload time, and some allow no downloads on free. PixBearer's free plan is 100 uploads with no window, because the files go straight to your Drive. See our comparison pages for the details per app.
