Hobby Badge Benefits

What can you do with Holopin Hobby? Here's a quick rundown of the features you'll get with your personal Holopin account (no need to subscribe anywhere!):

  • 🎨 Create up to two badges - use your own image (just make sure you have the rights to use it!)
  • 💌 Issue badges via email, QR code, or URL - spread the badge love to friends, fam, and coworkers
  • 🚀 No limits on badge numbers - seriously, share with as many people as you like!

Keep in mind, Holopin Hobby is for non-commercial use only. There are a few limitations with Hobby badges: you can't add them to your board, use the Holopin API or supported integrations for issuing, and no Holobytes or Evolving Badges — you'll need to upgrade. But hey, it's free! So, go ahead and have fun with it!

As always, all badges will go through a review process before they can be issued. Content moderation FTW!

Hassle-Free Issuing: Email, QR Code, or URL

Holopin Hobby makes it simple to issue your badges through email, QR code, or a multiple-use URL. Sharing your badges with your friends, family, and colleagues has never been easier.
