Lumela vs Smartwaiver

Questions people actually ask

• How much does Smartwaiver cost?

  As published on 20 August 2026: $19/mo for up to 100 signed waivers, $55/mo up to 300, $155/mo up to 1,000 and $199/mo up to 2,500, with Enterprise pricing above that. Annual billing is discounted. Check their pricing page for the current position - we re-verify quarterly and date every figure on this page.

• What happens if I go over my Smartwaiver waiver limit?

  Their published plans are described by an included monthly waiver count with upgrade and downgrade available at any time. For exactly what happens at the limit on your plan, ask them - we only publish what their own page states.

• Is Lumela cheaper than Smartwaiver?

  At the same 100 waivers a month, yes: $16 against their $19. Above that the comparison changes shape rather than degree - our unlimited plan is $24 flat, where their next tiers are $55 for 300 and $155 for 1,000. So the saving is small at low volume and large at high volume.

• Does Smartwaiver have contraindication flagging?

  We describe only what their published pages state, and their feature list covers waiver creation, signing, storage, integrations, ID scanning and photo capture. Whether a particular clinical screening behaviour is available is a question for them, and worth asking directly if it matters to you.

• Can I move my waivers from Smartwaiver?

  Paste your existing wording into a new form and add the screening questions around it. For historic signed waivers, export from Smartwaiver and keep the archive - you should keep your original records regardless of which product you use going forward.

• Which should a tattoo studio choose?

  If you want an ID photo captured with the form, guardian co-signing enforced by date of birth, and blood-thinner and alcohol questions that flag before the session, the vertical-specific product is the better fit. If you want a mature integration catalogue and native kiosk apps, theirs is.
