The Free plan, in full
Free is a plan, not a trial. It doesn't expire, it needs no card, and it runs the whole live event loop, from the QR code to the print sheet. Here's exactly what you get and what it costs.
What's included
- 1 live event a month: you can create one new event in each calendar month.
- QR ordering and the photo editor for your guests.
- The live order board, on every device you sign in on.
- Print sheets laid out for your press, for magnets and buttons.
- Card payments, booth payments and prepaid claim events.
- Bulk quantity pricing.
- Practice orders, so you can test everything before the day.
What it costs
- A 2% + $0.20 platform fee on each card sale, taken automatically when the guest pays. On a $25.00 card order, that's $0.70.
- No platform fee on booth payments, like cash, because they don't go through Stripe.
- Stripe's own card processing fee, which applies on every plan and goes to Stripe, not to us.
What Free leaves out
- The always-open web store is an add-on on Free. Email hello@liveimpressions.co to ask about it.
- No website. Solo includes one in four designs, and Pro includes one built for you.
- Store pages show a small “Photo magnet ordering by Live Impressions” credit.
- No one-tap Venmo button on booth orders.
- Only you sign in. Staff seats come with Pro.
When to move up
At $25.00 an order, Free's fee passes Solo's $29 monthly price at 42 card orders in a month. Solo also removes the event limit, so you can run a second event in the same month.
Solo and Pro
What the paid plans are for
Solo is for the maker running events most weekends. It removes the event limit and the platform fee, and adds the always-open web store and a website in your brand.
Pro is for makers who want a website made for them, or a crew working the booth with their own logins. You tell us about your business in a short brief, and we design and build the site from scratch, with your shop built in. Pro keeps the 0% platform fee and adds staff seats for as many helpers as you need.
You can move between plans any time. See what a live event looks like.
Pricing questions
Is there a free plan?+
Yes. Free costs nothing, needs no card and doesn't expire. It includes 1 live event a month with QR ordering, the photo editor, the live order board and print sheets, and card sales carry a 2% + $0.20 platform fee.
What is the platform fee?+
It's what Live Impressions takes from each card sale on the Free plan: 2% + $0.20 per order, taken automatically when the guest pays. Solo and Pro have a 0% platform fee. Stripe's own processing fee applies on every plan.
Is there a fee on cash sales at my booth?+
No. Booth payments, like cash, don't go through Stripe, so there's no platform fee on them on any plan.
Is there a discount for paying yearly?+
Yes. A year costs ten times the monthly price, so two months are free: $290 a year for Solo and $990 a year for Pro.
What's the difference between the Solo and Pro websites?+
Solo includes a website made from one of four ready-made designs, in your brand and with your shop on it. On Pro, we design and build a website for your business from scratch, with your shop built in.
Can I change plans later?+
Yes. Move up or down any time in Settings, under Plan & billing.
What happens if I cancel?+
Your account moves to the Free plan and nothing is deleted. Your orders, products and customers stay, and published events keep taking orders.
Are plans billed in US dollars?+
Yes, wherever you are. Your guests pay in the currency your shop sells in, which comes from your Stripe account's country.
