What ChackTok does
ChackTok, operated by UK-incorporated LINKSIGN UK CO., LTD and headquartered in London with an operations support office in Chino, California, is a vertical SaaS and hardware ecosystem for the photo booth and interactive imaging industry. The core product is a unified mobile application that controls 50,000+ devices across 12 photo booth hardware brands via a proprietary wireless protocol, supporting DSLR cameras, GoPro devices, iPad, and iPhone capture paths; standardized booth formats include 360 rotating platforms (22.5"–45.3"), Sky 360 overhead rotating-arm systems, Magic Mirror touchscreens (15.6" and 65"), iPad selfie stations, and a Glambot robotic-arm video booth. An expanding hardware footprint includes a metrology-grade Full Body 3D Scanner ($5,999) with six 12 MP cameras, 20-second capture, and 0.01 mm accuracy, paired with a custom 3D printing service priced $79–$249 per figurine. Platform capabilities span a WYSIWYG event template editor, branded overlays, real-time AI filters and visual effects (60+ effects, 300+ overlays, GIF/boomerang/slow-motion capture), and multi-channel sharing via email, QR, SMS, and social.
ChackTok generates revenue through four primary streams: software subscriptions priced from $25.99/week to $1,099/24 months with a $560 annual VIP tier (66% discount), direct hardware sales ($899–$2,899 per booth), bundled VIP packages ($1,400–$2,899) that combine multi-year subscriptions with complimentary hardware, and 3D scanning hardware plus on-demand 3D printing services. Distribution is product-led via owned e-commerce storefronts, iOS App Store, Google Play, a 60% commission affiliate program, and hardware distributors. The company targets photo booth rental entrepreneurs, event planners, wedding professionals, corporate event organizers, retail and self-service studios, and 3D figurine upsell operators. As of early 2026, the platform reports 300,000 registered users across 200+ countries, 600,000+ commercial events processed, 10 million+ photos/videos handled, and 1,000+ daily active operators.
Leadership is anchored by CEO Celia Liang. ChackTok operates as a privately held, bootstrapped entity with no disclosed venture capital or external funding, positioning its hardware-agnostic interoperability and integrated event-management workflow as the wedge against fragmented incumbents in a global photo booth market estimated at USD 584.6 million in 2024 with an 11.5% CAGR projection to USD 1.4 billion by 2032.
