What can ScanPlay play on?
If it can be printed, it can play. ScanPlay turns any printed picture into a smart photo — a living photo that plays video when someone points a phone at it. No app, no QR code, no change to the print. Here are 93 things businesses and families already use it on, by type.
Cards
A card is the most common ScanPlay print — one design, printed hundreds of times, paid once.
Wedding card
The couple's message or save-the-date video plays on the invitation itself. Guests keep the card and can watch it years later.
Invitation card
Housewarming, engagement, birthday or business event — the invite plays a personal welcome from the host.
Visiting card
Your 30-second introduction plays on the card you hand over. The one card in the stack people remember.
Business card
Show the office, the team or a product demo. 1,000 cards from one design are still paid once.

A festival or thank-you card that plays a recorded message instead of printed words.

Questions
Does the print need a QR code?
No. The phone recognises the picture itself. Open scanplay.in, tap Play a photo and point at the print. A QR is optional.
Do people need an app?
No. It works in the phone's browser on Android and iPhone. There is also a free ScanPlay app on Google Play for those who prefer it.
Do I pay for every printed copy?
No. You pay once per photo design + video. Print that design 1,000 times and every copy plays at no extra cost - scans are unlimited; the photo type only sets how many different phones a month can play it. The Studio shows the credits before you save.
Does it work on very large prints like hoardings?
Yes. Any size is recognised as long as the phone can see the whole design clearly — from a passport photo to a billboard.
Can the video be private?
Yes. A photo can be protected with a 6-digit PIN, so only the people you share it with can play it.
