How Much Is a 360 Photo Booth? [2025 Price Guide + Smart Buying Tips]
“So, how much should I spend on a 360 photo booth?”
If you’re asking this, you’re probably either starting a photo booth business—or thinking about using one for events. Good news: you’re not alone, and the answer doesn’t have to be complicated.
In this guide, I’ll break down current 360 booth price ranges, what features really matter, and how to pick the right option for your budget and goals—whether you’re just getting started or ready to scale.
The Short Answer – What’s the Price Range?
Most 360 photo booths range between $800 and $5,000+. Entry-level options may seem attractive for the price, but lack stability, lighting, or automation. At the other end, premium systems include heavy-duty builds and professional camera setups—but may be overkill for many users.
The real sweet spot? $1,200 – $2,500. That’s where you’ll find high-functioning booths that balance affordability with serious features—and that’s exactly where ChackTok positions itself.

What Affects the Price of a 360 Booth?
Beyond the hardware itself, here are some key factors that affect pricing:
Platform size – Larger booths (fit 4–6 people) cost more
Rotation type – Manual vs app-controlled vs remote
Lighting setup – RGB ring lights or LED light arms
Software – Free apps vs bundled solutions like ChackTok
Device compatibility – iPhone only? Or GoPro, DSLR, printer support?
Included accessories – Props, flight cases, printers, remote controls
🧠 Real-world tip: Many lower-priced booths require you to find, configure, and subscribe to third-party software separately—which quickly eats into your “savings.”
Why We Recommend ChackTok in the Mid-Range
ChackTok offers a mid-range 360 booth that doesn’t cut corners:
Supports iPhone, GoPro, DSLR
Controlled via app or remote
Includes ChackTok 360 video app (no third-party fees)

LED lighting + optional bundles with iPad booths or mirror booths

Rent or Buy? (Here’s the Math)
Renting a 360 booth typically costs $200–$500 per event. That’s fine for a one-off occasion—but if you’re considering offering this service or using it often, buying makes much more sense.
📈 Break-even scenario:
If your booth costs $2,000 and you charge $400 per event, you only need 5 events to earn your money back.
Final Thoughts – What Should You Do?
Buying a 360 photo booth can be a big step—but it doesn’t have to be risky or confusing. Think about your:
Budget
Business goals
Level of tech confidence
Expected use (personal vs commercial)
If you want to go beyond DIY setups and actually build a business, aim for a well-supported, app-integrated, mid-range solution.
