About BoothIQ
BoothIQ is the operator portal for photo booth businesses. It is the software you sign in to from a browser, a phone, or the booth itself, and the company that builds the booths it runs on. This page describes what it does and the official places to find it.
What BoothIQ is
BoothIQ ships as one product in three forms. Each form sees the same accounts, the same booths, and the same subscription. You pick whichever is closest to hand.
- Cloud dashboard. A web app at
boothiq.com/dashboard. Revenue, transactions, product mix, supply levels, remote configuration, and subscription management. - Mobile apps. Native iOS and Android clients. The same data and controls as the web, in a layout sized for the phone in your pocket.
- Booth software. The desktop application that runs on each BoothIQ booth. Takes payments, prints photos, tracks supply, and stores every transaction locally. The booth keeps running when the internet drops; cloud sync resumes automatically when it returns.
How it works
Each booth is the source of truth for what happens at the booth. Transactions, revenue totals, and configuration changes are recorded locally first. When the booth has internet, it syncs to your BoothIQ account.
The cloud dashboard and mobile apps both read from that synced account, so the data you see on your phone matches the data on the booth's touchscreen. Configuration written on the web (for example, changing a product price) flows back to the booth on the next sync.
This is an offline-first design. If the venue's Wi-Fi fails, the booth keeps taking money and printing photos. If our cloud has an outage, the booth keeps taking money and printing photos. Cloud sync is the bonus, not the requirement.
Hardware and software from one company
BoothIQ builds the booths and writes the software that runs them. The cabinet is a one-time purchase from the BoothIQ store; the software is a per-booth subscription. They are designed as one system.
