Guestpix alternative with custom domains and voice
The verdict
If you simply need to collect guest photos for a one-off event, both tools do the job. But for a professional building a resale line, the gap is the domain and the deliverable. Guestpix offers reseller bundles yet runs the guest gallery on its own branded surface -- there is no custom domain that makes the experience truly yours. Gathmo puts the gallery on your own domain (one on Studio at €59/month, unlimited on Agency at €149/month), removes the vendor branding entirely at Agency tier, and adds a voice guestbook that photo-and-video tools do not. On a subscription model you keep every euro you charge your clients. For resale, Gathmo is the stronger base; for a single large event with no branding needs, Guestpix is a reasonable pick.

Choose Gathmo if…
- You resell guest media and want the gallery on your own domain
- You want voice notes as a deliverable, not just photos and video
- You would rather pay a flat subscription and keep 100% of client revenue
- EU hosting and a DPA matter to your clients
- You run multiple client brands and need unlimited domains (Agency)
Choose Guestpix if…
- You need a tool for a single large event with no branding requirement
- You prefer to pay per event rather than hold a subscription
- A guest-facing custom domain is not important to you
The reason custom domains matter so much for resellers comes down to one thing your client can see without being told: the address bar. When the gallery loads on `photos.yourstudio.com`, the guest media service reads as part of your studio. When it loads on a third-party domain with your logo on it, you are visibly reselling someone else's tool. Guestpix is built around per-event collection and reseller bundles, which is a real commercial model, but the guest gallery stays on its surface -- so the one piece of branding that cannot be faked is not yours.
Gathmo treats the domain as the foundation of the resale. The Studio plan (€59/month, €590/year) includes one custom domain; the Agency plan (€149/month, €1,490/year) includes unlimited domains plus end-to-end de-branding, so you can run a different branded surface for every client. Because Gathmo bills you a flat subscription and never touches your client invoices, you keep 100% of whatever you charge -- there is no per-event revenue share to erode your margin as volume grows.
The second gap is the deliverable. Guest photo tools collect photos and, increasingly, video. Gathmo adds a voice guestbook in the same QR flow -- guests tap once and record a message in their browser, no app, no hardware -- which gives you a differentiated product to sell rather than a commodity photo dump. Paired with a live photo wall and original-quality ZIP export, it is a richer package to put your name on. We cover the voice angle in depth in audio guestbook for event pros.
None of this makes Guestpix a bad tool -- for a single high-volume event where branding is irrelevant, it is perfectly serviceable. But if you are building a repeatable line of business, the questions that decide it are whether the gallery is on your domain, whether the vendor's name is gone, and whether you keep your margin. On all three, Gathmo is the resale-first option.

Frequently asked
The custom domain and the deliverable. Guestpix offers per-event collection with reseller bundles, but the guest gallery runs on its own branded surface, so there is no guest-facing custom domain. Gathmo puts the gallery on your own domain (one on Studio at €59/month, unlimited on Agency at €149/month), removes vendor branding entirely at Agency tier, and adds a voice guestbook alongside photos and video. Gathmo also bills a flat subscription, so you keep 100% of what you charge clients.
Guestpix is built around per-event photo and video collection with reseller bundles, and the guest gallery runs on its own surface rather than your own web address. For a reseller, that means the platform is visible to clients and guests. If a guest-facing custom domain is a priority -- so the gallery reads as your own product -- Gathmo includes one custom domain from the Studio tier (€59/month) and unlimited domains from Agency (€149/month).
Yes. Gathmo includes a voice guestbook in the same QR upload flow as photos and video: guests tap once and record a message in their browser, with no app and no hardware to rent. Voice notes are 30 seconds on the free tier and unlimited length on paid plans. This is a deliverable most photo-and-video collection tools do not offer, which gives resellers a differentiated product rather than a commodity photo gallery.
Gathmo uses a flat subscription rather than per-event pricing: Studio is €59/month (€590/year) with 10 events included, and Agency is €149/month (€1,490/year) with 50 events included. Per-event bundle pricing scales with each event you buy, whereas a subscription gives you a predictable fixed cost and improving unit economics as you run more events. Because Gathmo never touches your client invoices, you keep 100% of your resale revenue on top of that fixed cost.
Yes. Gathmo stores guest media in the EU (Frankfurt) and offers a GDPR Article 28 data processing agreement on request, with no third-country transfer of guest data. For resellers serving European clients -- especially corporate buyers and anyone handling photos of children or staff -- EU hosting and an available DPA simplify the compliance conversation considerably. We cover this in detail in our guide to EU-hosted guest media.
Yes. Gathmo's reseller model is subscription-only: you pay a flat monthly or annual fee (Studio €59/month, Agency €149/month) and rebill your clients however you like, off-platform. Gathmo takes no percentage of your resale, so 100% of what you charge clients is yours. This differs from per-event revenue-share models, where the platform's cut grows with your volume.
For a one-off high-volume event with no branding requirement, Guestpix is a reasonable choice -- it is built for per-event collection. Gathmo becomes the stronger option when you want the gallery on your own domain, a voice guestbook as part of the package, or a repeatable resale line where you keep all the revenue. If you only need to collect photos once and do not care whose platform it runs on, either works; if you are building a business around it, the domain and margin decide it.
