What It Is

Snafflz is a guest list and event check-in management SaaS for live and virtual events, provided by Snafflz Entertainment Ltd. It covers guest lists, invitations, registration, on-site check-in, badge printing, and post-event reporting, making it suitable for red carpet events, conferences and trade shows, corporate events, campus events, VIP hospitality, weddings, and similar use cases.

Core Features and Collaboration

Based on the available materials, Snafflz focuses on the event execution workflow: it supports bulk guest uploads via Excel, custom fields, e-Invitations, RSVPs, registration/ticketing events, and on-site check-in through iOS/Android apps. The mobile app includes a built-in QR/barcode scanner and supports multiple code formats, including QR, Code128, EAN, PDF417, and DataMatrix. It can also print badges, show real-time statistics, and export post-event reports. For team collaboration, the account Owner can log in on multiple devices. Premium/Diamond plans or Top-Up add-ons can add Contributors and assign roles such as Admin, Collaborator, and Hostess.

Pricing and Free Plan

Its pricing is fairly granular: Free Taster is permanently free and requires no credit card, but is limited to 1 event and 25 guests. It lets users test most paid features, though campaigns are restricted. The single-event Professional/Pro plan costs $39 as a one-time payment and includes 300 guest credits plus a 30-day license. Premium costs $69/month or $690/year, while Diamond costs $259/month or $2590/year. Additional Top-Up purchases are available for guest credits, emails, badge printing, VIP notifications, Contributors, and more.

Security, Deployment, and Openness

Snafflz is a hosted SaaS product that can be used after registering on the web, with companion mobile apps available. Its site mentions SSL encryption, daily backups, GDPR, a privacy policy, as well as COVID Secure and Track & Trace compliance. On the API side, it only states that Public API, Custom URL, and Priority Support require custom contact, with no publicly available documentation found.

Pros, Cons, and Best Fit

Its strengths are that it covers the full pre-event, on-site, and post-event workflow, offers practical check-in capabilities, and provides both a free version and a low-barrier single-event plan. Limitations include some placeholder content still present on the official website; currently, it cannot sell paid tickets directly, only send QR tickets while payment is collected offline; and offline capability is incomplete, as the v2 App currently requires an internet connection. It is best suited to event teams with limited budgets that still need professional check-in, guest management, and badge printing.

Access from China and Alternatives

The available materials do not specify access reliability from mainland China, network stability, or payment availability. References to PayPal suggest a relatively strong reliance on overseas payment methods, so access and payment should be tested before purchase. Domestic alternatives include 活动行, 31会议, and 百格活动; international alternatives include Eventbrite, Cvent, Splash, Bizzabo, and Whova.
