Everything about hosting, joining and paying for Fun Friday, in one place.
Fun Friday (funfriday.work) is an online team building games platform for remote and hybrid teams. A host picks a game, shares a 6-character room code, and teammates join from any browser — no download and no facilitator needed. Games run live with synchronised timers, scoring and reveals. There are 23 games, from trivia and drawing to bluffing and word games — for example Trivia Blitz, Imposter, Emoji Story, Two Truths & a Lie, Caption This, Hot Takes.
Remote, hybrid and in-office teams who want a short, structured social activity: end-of-week catch-ups, icebreakers for new starters, team days, all-hands warm-ups and holiday parties. Managers, team leads, HR and people teams use it without needing to plan or run anything themselves.
Trivia Blitz, Imposter, Emoji Story, Two Truths & a Lie, Caption This, Hot Takes, Timeline, Drawing Blind, Bid & Bluff, Colour Clue, Majority Rules, Typing Sprint, Odd One Out, Guess Who Said It, Ballpark, Zoomed In, Plot Twist, Top Rank, Spin & Solve, Bluff Trivia, Code Clues, Where Am I?, Operation Defuse. Each game has its own page with how it plays, player counts and typical length.
No. The game explains its own rules, runs its own timers and keeps score, so whoever hosts just picks a game and shares the code. Questions, prompts and image packs are built in; you can add your own with custom packs.
Yes — people often use it that way. Unlike a quiz-only tool, it covers quiz, drawing, bluffing, opinion and storytelling games built for colleagues rather than classrooms. Unlike Jackbox, there is nothing to buy or install, and nobody has to stream a game window: every player uses their own browser.
Yes. Fun Friday is in beta and is not charging anyone. Every account gets the Pro plan free at sign-up: Invite your whole team free, All 23 game types, Up to 30 players, Unlimited sessions, 10 custom packs, Covers 3 teams, 3 team admins, Points, rank shields & achievements, Leaderboards & full history. We hold no payment details for you, so we cannot charge you. If we start charging, you will choose a plan and enter card details yourself, or your team moves to the Free plan. Without an account you can still host the free games (Trivia Blitz, Emoji Story, Two Truths & a Lie, Hot Takes).
No. We hold no payment details, so there is nothing to charge. Prices will be released after beta. When charging starts you choose a plan and enter card details yourself; if you do not, your team moves to the Free plan and keeps read access to everything it created.
No — and nothing is charged during beta. The planned model is one flat fee per team, paid by the team owner, with no per-seat charge for members or players.
No payment is needed during beta. After beta, cards are taken through Stripe, and larger organisations can arrange invoice billing and custom player limits through the contact page.

Quick, low-pressure games where everyone contributes something small work best: Two Truths & a Lie, Hot Takes, Emoji Story and short trivia rounds. For something with no game at all, the free icebreaker question generator gives you a ready-made question by theme.
Yes. Everyone plays on their own phone or laptop, wherever they are, so people in a meeting room and people at home are in the same game. Put the host’s screen on the room display if you like.
All of them. Fun Friday runs in the browser beside your call, so it works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Webex, Slack huddles and Discord — share the room code in the chat and play.
Start a game at funfriday.work/play, paste the room code or link into the Teams meeting chat, and everyone joins from their browser while staying on the call. No Teams app or admin approval is needed.
Yes. The Fun Friday Zoom App lets you start a game from a meeting’s Apps panel so everyone in the meeting can join. You can also just share a room code in the Zoom chat without installing anything.
Yes. The Fun Friday add-on for Google Meet runs games in the meeting’s side panel and main stage, and the same Google Workspace add-on adds a /funfriday command to Google Chat.

Yes. Fun Friday has an MCP server that assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can connect to. A connected assistant can find a game, open a room for you and report results once you grant it hosting permission. It cannot play games on anyone’s behalf.
It is designed not to be. Fun Friday runs on funfriday.work — a .work domain chosen so corporate proxies do not classify it as a gaming site — over standard HTTPS in any modern browser, with nothing to install. If your network still blocks it, ask IT to allow funfriday.work.
Fun Friday is run under UK GDPR. The database and authentication are hosted in the EU, product analytics (EU-hosted) are off unless you accept them, and you can delete your account and its data at any time. Guests only give a display name.
Yes. All traffic is encrypted, every database table is protected by row-level security, answers are scored on the server so nobody can cheat by inspecting the page, and security issues can be reported through a published disclosure policy.
Yes. Built-in questions and prompts are written for colleagues, and player, team and pack names are filtered for profanity. The host controls which games and packs are played.
