Online, or in the room
One quiz. Any crowd, anywhere.
The same quiz works on a stream, across a whole company or in the pub on a Tuesday. Nobody has to be in the same place.
Online & streams
Share the link and people join from home, the office or the other side of the world. Every question is on their own phone, so a big screen is a bonus, not a must.
Online quizzes →Pubs & venues
Put the big screen on the projector: a giant QR, names popping in as people arrive, and a leaderboard the whole room watches.
Pub quizzes →Schools & charities
Fundraisers, PTA nights and classrooms. Teams share one phone per table, and the scoring is done for you.
Charity and school quizzes →Teams at work
Socials, onboarding and all-hands across offices and time zones. Put a password on it if the night is private.
Team quizzes at work →You, live on camera
Host on camera on every player’s phone and on the big screen, less than a second behind. It runs on your own free Cloudflare account and takes a few minutes to set up.
Up to 1,000 phones
Quiz Master takes up to 1,000 players in one quiz — for streams, big online events and whole-company nights. Standard takes 75 and your free quiz 20. It counts phones, not teams: a team of four on four phones is four.
On your own website
One line of code puts a quiz card on your site: your next quiz and a Join button, in your own colours, fonts and logo.
Themes
Looks like your night, not ours
Same engine, same questions, same timer — a completely different room. Pick a pack, swap your colours, or describe the look you want and have one generated. Themes can change everything you can see and nothing you can play.
How it works
Three steps to a full room
No training, no rehearsal. If you can run a spreadsheet, you can run the night.
-
1
Upload your quiz
Drop in a CSV or spreadsheet — one row per question. The importer checks every row and tells you in plain English what to fix before anything is saved.

2
Share the link or the code
Online, send the link or show the code on your stream and players tap straight in. In a room, open the big screen view on the projector: a giant QR and join code, and names pop in as people arrive.
-
3
Run it from your phone
Next, lock, reveal, leaderboard, pause. Scoring is automatic and server-timed, so nobody argues about who buzzed first.
The big screen
The room looks at this
A separate projector view runs the whole deck: intro, round titles, questions, breaks, sponsor messages and the finale. It never shows an answer before you do.
Features
Everything a quiz night actually needs
Built from running real nights, not from a feature list.
Seven question types
Multiple choice, true/false, emoji, picture, free text, numeric and drag-to-order. Free text forgives a typo when you want it to.
Solo, teams or both
Everyone for themselves, teams, or a mixed room where solo players and teams play side by side. A team shares a four-letter code, and one phone answers for the table while the rest confer.
Timing you can defend
Every answer is stamped by the server the moment it lands. Late taps are rejected, and the client clock is decoration.
Four scoring modes
Flat, speed, speed-rank or closest-wins. Double-points rounds with one setting. Nobody does mental arithmetic on a Tuesday.
Live chat, with you in it
Players chat between questions and you can join in from the host panel. Chat pauses while a question is open, links are blocked, swearing is masked, and you can delete a message or mute a player.
Themes, not templates
Halloween, Christmas, pub classic, office, school and more. Swap the colours, fonts and sounds — or describe a look and have one generated.
Pricing

Questions
Before you ask
Do players need to download an app?
No. They scan the QR code, tap your link or type the six-character code at joltquiz.com, and play in their phone’s browser. No app and no accounts.
How many people can play?
Up to 20 on your free quiz, 75 on Standard and 1,000 on Quiz Master. It counts phones, not teams.
Can I run it online, with nobody in the same room?
Yes. Every question and answer is on each player’s own phone, so you just share the link. You can host on camera too, on every phone and on the big screen.
Where do the questions come from?
You write them in the quiz builder or import a CSV or spreadsheet, one row per question. The importer checks every row before anything is saved.
Is the first quiz really free?
Yes — your first quiz is free for up to 20 players, and no card is needed. After that you pick a monthly plan and can cancel any time.
Can I show my quiz on my own website?
Yes. One line of code puts a quiz card on your site with your next quiz and a Join button, in your own colours, fonts and logo.
