Frequently asked questions
Is Party Props free?
Yes. Your first 3 events are free, and guests always play for free. Paid plans only matter if you host more events than that.
How do guests play?
You share one link. Guests open it on their phone, enter a name, and submit their predictions. There is no app to download and no account to create.
When do predictions lock?
You set a cutoff time for your event. Guests can make their predictions any time before the cutoff. After that, submissions lock and you enter the real answers.
How does scoring work?
Each correct prediction earns a point, and the leaderboard updates live as you enter the real answers. A tiebreaker question settles any ties, so there is always a clear winner.
Can guests bet on the wedding or the big game?
Yes, that is the whole idea, just without the money. Party Props is friendly betting: guests make their picks, compete on a live leaderboard, and play for bragging rights instead of cash.
Can I edit the questions in this template?
Yes. Copying a template gives you your own private event, and every question, option, and color is fully editable before you share it with guests.
