Frequently asked questions

How much does Scanova cost?

Current public pricing lists Basic at $5/month, Lite at $9/month, Standard at $35/month, and Pro at $75/month, billed annually. That equals $60/year, $108/year, $420/year, and $900/year respectively. Ultra Lite is $150 one-time for one lifetime dynamic QR code. Enterprise is quote-based.

Does Scanova have a free plan?

We found a 14-day trial with no credit card required, but no ongoing free plan on the current pricing page.

Is Scanova a wedding photo-sharing app?

No. Scanova is a QR code generator. You can use it to point guests to a wedding page or upload form, but it does not provide a dedicated event photo gallery, live slideshow, or guest album workflow by itself.

What are Scanova plan limits?

The relevant public limits are QR code/page counts: Basic 3, Lite 10, Standard 50, Pro 500, and Ultra Lite 1 lifetime dynamic QR code. These are not guest photo upload limits.
