Help / FAQ / Guest Pass

How long do Guest Passes last?

Guest Passes last until you choose to expire them.

You expire a Guest Pass you sent out on your Guest Pass History page. If you expire a Guest Pass, anyone who tries to access the Guest Pass URL will see a page that tells them that the pass has expired.

Where can I see a list of all the Guest Passes I've sent out?

The Guest Pass history page shows all the Guest Passes you sent, to whom, and for which set. From that page you can resend an old Guest Pass (if someone didn't receive it, or you want another person to see the same thing) or expire an active Guest Pass.

By the way, on your Invite History page, we make a note of anyone who signed up for a new Flickr account as a result of using your Guest Pass. (If that happens, we'll make you two contacts as well.)

Why isn't my Guest Pass getting through to my friend?

There are two ways to send a Guest Pass: send an email via Flickr that contains the special Guest Pass URL, and create the Guest Pass link yourself and then share it as you see fit.

The first method sends a URL via email, so your email might be identified as spam because it contains a URL. Or perhaps you entered an incorrect email address. Check out your Guest Pass history and resend the pass if you got the address wrong.
