🎟️ QuizWitz PRO – How seats work

QuizWitz PRO games require active seats to connect players. Seats are a flexible, pay-as-you-go or license-based system that scales with your needs — perfect for pub quizzes, livestreams, and professional quiz events.


🧑‍🤝‍🧑 What are seats?

  • Each connected player or team in a PRO game requires 1 active seat.
  • You can host games with individual players or teams sharing one device — each counts as one seat.
  • Regular (non-PRO) games do not require seats and are ideal for casual play with friends or family.

🎮 Free seats for everyone

  • Every account includes 3 free seats per game, available to all users, even without a PRO license.
  • These seats let you host small quizzes with friends or test your content at no cost.
  • The 3 free seats do not count toward your pay-as-you-go or license-based total.

💼 QuizWitz PRO licenses

If you host quizzes regularly, a QuizWitz PRO license gives you permanently active seats that are always available — no need to activate them manually.

Available license tiers include:

  • PRO-50: 50 permanently active seats
  • PRO-100: 100 permanently active seats
  • PRO-500: 500 permanently active seats
  • PRO-1K: 1000 permanently active seats
  • PRO-2K: 2000 permanently active seats

These seats are ideal for recurring events, larger team setups, or professional venues.

⚠️ Important: If you need to host a quiz with more players than your license allows, you must activate pay-as-you-go seats for the full number of players. The seats from your license are not added to your activated seats — they are replaced entirely.


💳 Pay-as-you-go & credits

For one-time or occasional events, you can activate pay-as-you-go seats instead of purchasing a license. This gives you flexibility without a long-term commitment.

  • Seats are activated using QuizWitz credits, which you can buy in advance.
  • Volume discounts are available when buying credits in bulk.
  • Each premium license includes a value of free credits.
  • If you're unsure how many players will join:
    • You can wait until everyone connects before activating seats.
    • Or, activate more seats than needed — unused seats are automatically refunded in credits after they expire.

⏳ Seat duration (pay-as-you-go)

  • Pay-as-you-go seats stay active for 48 hours after activation.
  • Within that time, you can:
    • Run multiple quizzes or sessions
    • Test your quiz with larger groups
    • Host multi-day events over a weekend

📉 Pricing for large groups

  • Seat prices decrease for larger player counts, making big events more affordable.

⚠️ Special case: whitelabel mode

  • Games in whitelabel mode require 2 seats per player instead of one.

Example: A 100-player whitelabel game requires 200 seats.


QuizWitz PRO gives you flexible and professional tools to run events of any size — whether you activate seats on demand or rely on a PRO license for always-on access.
