Unique and Innovative Social Media Printer

We print social media photos live at graduation

Free branded prints for your grads to take home on the day

Graduation, upgraded for the digital age

SquareShare brings social media to life at graduation events. Our innovative printing technology captures the excitement of the day by turning your graduates' social media posts into beautiful, branded keepsakes they can take home instantly.

We set up on-site at your ceremony, monitor your custom hashtag, and print every tagged photo in real-time. It's a seamless experience that delights graduates and their families while boosting your institution's social media presence.

How it works

1. Take a picture

Snap a photo at the graduation ceremony with friends and family.

2. Upload to social media

Post to Instagram or Twitter using your university's custom hashtag.

3. Collect free instant print

Pick up your beautifully branded print from the SquareShare stand.

Make the most of connecting in person

Gen-Z grads expect more than a branded pen or tote bag. An instant print of their favourite graduation selfie is the perfect send off. Affirm their new identity as alumni and raise awareness of what your alumni association can offer.

Supercharge your social media strategy

Because grads must post on Instagram or Twitter to get their free print, you'll increase your social reach with positive, student-made content and can connect with them online afterwards.

Lean on our expertise

We've been supporting teams like yours to make graduation special since 2015. From helping plan your SquareShare strategy, to being there in-person on the day to help you execute, we'll be with you every step of the way.

“I always knew it was gonna be a popular thing, but I probably I didn't realise how popular. Graduates have great feelings towards the fact that it's a free gift from the university. It's certainly an excellent engagement tool and a great start to their life as an alumni.”

“Giving the free pictures away, it puts the university in a good light - it makes you feel valued. The best way to remember the day is through photos. It's moment in time, you've got it there, you've got it captured forever.”

Innovative - Fun - Personalised

Nurture your alumni right from the start of their journey.

Affinity and belonging

Collecting their free, personalised memento will allow a sense of affinity and belonging within your alumni community to fully take root.

Generosity and giving

Graduation can be an expensive day, so your generosity will stand out and foster a spirit of giving you can call on through the years.

SquareShare team on-site

We know you'll want to give your full attention to connecting with your grads on the day - not on troubleshooting a printer. That's why our team is on-site at all times during graduation to make sure everyone gets their print without a hitch.

Bespoke print design

We customise your print, so you can set the agenda. Whether you highlight an existing campaign or kickstart a new one, SquareShare can help you achieve your alumni engagement goals.

Quantified ROI

We'll provide a detailed PDF analytics report, so that you can share the success of our work together within your institution.

Debrief call

After graduation, we'll meet with you and your team, so we can learn together, grow and improve the graduation experience year after year.

We work with some of the UK's leading universities

University of Liverpool
“SquareShare allows us to communicate with our grads in a different way. Rather than asking them to come to us, it allows us to go to them - tap into a market that we wouldn't normally have access to.”

University of St Andrews
“We've had quite a lot of growth in our Instagram and Twitter followers over the two and a half weeks as well. There's been a substantial spike in numbers, following our pages.”

“SquareShare gives us the ability to create a buzz and enables us to give something back to our alumni. It's the fun side of graduation, rather than the stage photography that they're able to get.”

Re-prints for all

We can re-print* all hashtagged images so that mum, dad, gran and Jim the dog can all get a copy.

Wow factor

Printing with SquareShare is quick and easy - it takes just 30 seconds from pressing upload to holding a print in your hand.

Gen-Selfie

Taking and sharing selfies is at the heart of the Gen-Z experience. Meet them on home ground and help them make the most of the photos they'll already be taking.

*fair use policy applies

Mark the moment

Evoke the nostalgia and joy of the Kodak moment in the digital age, where physical copies of photos are increasingly rare.

Photo wall

Let the story of graduation unfold on a physical photo wall at the event. Our stall is a hive of activity where guests love hanging out and starting conversations.

Stay top-of-mind

Retain brand visibility in hard-to-reach places for years to come. Desks, walls and even the fridge door will serve as a reminder as your grads head out into the world.
