Turn your resort into a photo destination
Fotiqo powers on-site photography at hotels, beach resorts, and luxury properties worldwide. From the first shutter click to the last automated follow-up, every moment is a revenue opportunity.
The Guest Journey
How it works at a hotel
From the moment a photographer spots your guest by the pool to months after checkout, Fotiqo keeps the revenue engine running. Here is the five-step flow that has generated millions in photo sales across resort properties on three continents.
Photographer captures guests
Your on-site photographer moves through the property -- pool deck, beach, restaurants, activities. Every interaction is an opportunity. Photos upload directly to the cloud or local kiosk via the Fotiqo app, no cables required.
WhatsApp hook sent with preview
Within minutes, the guest receives a WhatsApp message containing a single stunning preview image -- watermarked and irresistible. This is the hook: a taste of their vacation captured professionally, designed to drive action.
Guest visits kiosk or opens gallery
The guest taps the link to view their full gallery online, or strolls to the elegant kiosk near the lobby. The kiosk displays their photos on a large retina screen with no watermarks, creating an immediate emotional connection.
Purchase at kiosk or online
At the kiosk, guests pay by card (Stripe Terminal) or cash. Online, they complete a seamless Stripe checkout. Individual photos, full galleries, printed albums, or video add-ons -- all available at the point of maximum excitement.
Instant delivery + sleeping money
Purchased photos are delivered instantly via WhatsApp and email. But the story does not end at checkout. Our automated sequences recover 30-40% of abandoned galleries over the following weeks with smart discounting.
Point of Sale
Kiosk POS System
The Fotiqo kiosk is where browsing guests become paying customers. A sleek touchscreen experience that presents their photos in gallery-quality resolution, handles payments securely, and works even when the hotel Wi-Fi goes down. It is your 24/7 sales associate that never takes a break.
Each kiosk connects to a local network with the photographer's workstation and optional customer-facing TV displays. Photos transfer from camera to screen in seconds. Staff log in with a secure PIN, select the guest's gallery, and the customer takes it from there -- tapping through their memories, favoriting the ones they love, and paying on the spot.
Guest Onboarding
Hotel check-in integration
The revenue journey starts the moment your guest walks through the door. Fotiqo embeds into the arrival experience so every guest becomes a potential customer before they even reach their room.
Welcome photo at arrival
A photographer greets families at the Welcome Archway -- a beautifully branded photo station near reception. A professional portrait is captured in the first five minutes of their stay, creating an emotional anchor that drives purchases all week long.
QR code handed to guest
Immediately after the welcome photo, the guest receives a branded QR card. Scanning it opens their personal gallery with the welcome image and a booking link for additional photo sessions during their stay. Receptionists earn a 5% commission on every booking generated through their QR.
Session booking link
The QR gallery page features a prominent booking calendar. Guests select a time slot and preferred photo type -- pool portraits, sunset sessions, or activity shots. The system dispatches the highest-rated available photographer automatically.
Instant gallery creation
The moment the photographer finishes shooting, photos upload directly from their device to the guest's gallery. The guest receives a WhatsApp notification within minutes. No waiting, no front desk visits, no friction between capture and purchase.
Pre-Arrival Revenue
Pre-arrival Digital Pass
Why wait until check-in to start selling? Two hours after a guest completes their hotel booking, Fotiqo sends an automated WhatsApp or email offering the Unlimited Digital Pass. The guest pays once and receives every single photo taken during their stay -- delivered in real time, no kiosk visit required.
Hotels love it because it removes purchase friction and increases per-guest revenue by up to 60%. Guests love it because they can relax and enjoy their holiday knowing every moment is being captured and delivered automatically. Photographers love it because they can focus on shooting instead of selling.
Basic Pass
Pre-paid package of up to 20 professional photos during the stay.
Unlimited Pass
Every photo from every session, delivered via WhatsApp the moment the photographer uploads.
VIP Pass
Unlimited photos plus priority booking for sunset sessions, private portraits, and activity coverage.

Automated Revenue
Sleeping money recovery
Most photography operations lose the sale the moment the guest walks away from the kiosk. Fotiqo does not. Our automated messaging sequences continue selling for weeks after checkout, recovering revenue that would otherwise be lost forever. We call it sleeping money -- and it typically adds 30-40% to your total photo revenue.
Gentle reminder
Guest receives a WhatsApp message with one of their best photos and a friendly nudge: 'Your vacation photos are waiting.' No discount yet -- just the emotional trigger of seeing their memories.
Discount offer
If the guest bought only some photos at the kiosk, they receive an offer to unlock the remaining gallery at 50% off. If they never purchased, a 15% early-bird discount is applied. Urgency increases with a countdown timer.
Last chance
A final message warns that the gallery will expire soon. The discount deepens. The FOMO timer counts down. This stage alone converts 8-12% of remaining holdouts, adding pure profit with zero additional photography cost.

Branding
Your hotel brand, not ours
Every guest touchpoint carries your resort's branding. The gallery page, the WhatsApp messages, the kiosk interface, the printed QR cards, the email receipts -- all customized with your logo, colors, and messaging. Your guests never see the Fotiqo name unless you want them to.
This is not a generic overlay. We work with your marketing team to match the exact look and feel of your property. Luxury beachfront resort? The gallery reflects that. Family-friendly water park? The branding adapts. Boutique hotel? Every detail is refined. The photography experience becomes an extension of your hospitality.
