Adding a New Device Seat

Got a new iPad? Here's how to add it to your ALIVE account.

How to Add a Seat

Go to the web dashboard at photobooth.alive-pic.com/dashboard
Navigate to your subscription
Add a new device seat
Confirm the additional billing (prorated for the current period)
The new seat is activated immediately

Setting Up the New Device

Install ALIVE Photobooth on the new iPad
Sign in with your existing account credentials
The device registers automatically and uses the new seat
Your events, templates, and effects sync to the new device

Prorated Billing

When you add a seat mid-billing cycle, you're only charged for the remaining days in the current period. At the next renewal, the full seat price is included.

Example: If you add a seat 15 days into a monthly cycle, you pay roughly half the monthly rate for that first period.

Managing Multiple Devices

With multiple seats, you can:

Run simultaneous booths at the same event
Send different iPads to different events on the same day
Have a backup device ready to go

Tips

Test the new device — Sign in, sync, and run a test event before bringing it to a live event
Name each device — Use Device Name to label each iPad so you can tell them apart
Plan ahead — Add seats before you need them, not at the event venue while guests are waiting

Adding a seat is instant. If you land a last-minute gig that needs two booths, you can add a seat on the spot.
