15% of their plan

Your credit scales with the plan each referred host buys

This page is public — read the program details below without signing in. When you are ready, sign in as a host to copy your personal referral link. Guests do not need accounts; only event hosts earn credit.

How it works

Four steps from link to credit

  1. Sign in as a host

    Create a free PicShots account and run at least one event so you know the product before you recommend it.

  2. Share your personal link

    Copy your referral URL from this page and send it to planners, photographers, or friends hosting their own celebration.

  3. They buy a paid plan

    When someone new opens your link, signs up, and checks out on a paid event plan (Starter through Scale), that plan price is what your commission is based on.

  4. You earn a cut of their plan

    You receive 15% of each referred host's paid event plan — one commission per referred host. Bigger plans mean bigger credit; free tiers do not count.

Why hosts refer PicShots

  • Built for word of mouth

    Wedding planners, photographers, and repeat hosts already recommend tools they trust. PicShots is easy to demo: one QR, no guest app.

  • Reward scales with their plan

    A referral on Scale earns more than one on Starter because your commission is always 15% of the plan they purchased — not a fixed amount.

  • Free tier still hooks guests

    Referred hosts can try PicShots free for up to 10 guests. You earn credit when they choose a paid tier for a bigger event.

Referral FAQ

Who can join the referral program?

Any signed-in PicShots host with at least one event on their account. Photographers, wedding planners, and repeat party hosts are especially welcome — share your link with clients and fellow organisers.

What does my friend need to do?

They should open your personal referral link before creating their PicShots account. When they pay for their first paid event plan (Starter through Scale), that plan purchase qualifies you for commission.

How is my reward calculated?

You earn 15% of the event plan your referred host buys — paid as real money into your PicShots referral balance (not just checkout credit). If they choose Starter, your commission is smaller; Pro or Scale pays more because the plan price is higher. The optional video add-on is not included in the commission base.

Is there a limit?

You can earn one commission per referred host (based on their first paid plan purchase). There is no cap on how many different hosts you can refer.

When do I get the money?

After your referred host's first paid plan checkout clears, we credit your PicShots referral balance (shown in USD in your dashboard). Request a payout from your referral dashboard or by emailing support — we send real money via your chosen payout method once approved.

Does the video add-on count toward my commission?

No. Commission is calculated on the paid event plan only (Starter, Growth, Pro, Pro Plus, or Scale). If your friend also buys the video add-on, that portion is excluded from your referral percentage.

Can I refer myself or my own events?

No. Self-referrals, duplicate accounts, or referrals within the same household or organisation where we detect abuse do not qualify.

Do free events count?

No. The free tier (up to 10 guests) does not trigger a referral reward. Your friend must buy a paid plan for you to earn credit.

Credits are promotional and may change; see our terms of service for general billing rules and refund policy for paid events.
