What people use our quiz software for

Training & workshops

A fun way to find out what people have actually taken in, while you see straight away which topics have stuck and where a bit more attention is needed.

Pub quiz night

Run a full pub quiz with several rounds, music clips, live standings and a nail-biting finale. You play quizmaster, while everyone joins in from their phone.

Celebrations & events

Turn any celebration or event into something people join in with. Whether it’s a birthday, an anniversary, a wedding or a company party. A quiz about the guest of honour, the team or the year gets everyone going and gives people something to talk about.

Then vs. now

A brilliant quiz, without the hassle

On paper With PowerPoint

The old way

  • Handing out answer sheets, collecting them in and deciphering the handwriting
  • Has everyone answered yet?
  • Marking papers all through the break (and still arguing about the result)
  • Constantly switching between PowerPoint, YouTube and other tools
  • The running total scribbled on a beer mat
With ClassicQuiz

The 2026 way

  • Everyone answers on their own phone
  • Move on automatically once everyone has answered
  • Points are counted for you, so the break is an actual break
  • Questions, music and video, all on screen without switching apps
  • A live scoreboard, with a clear winner at the end
Different question types

From multiple choice to matching, variety is what keeps a quiz exciting.

Eight different formats to mix up your quiz. A few new ones are on the way.

A

Multiple choice

The classic. Pick from 2 to 6 options, with or without a ticking clock.

B

Open question

They type it themselves, so they really have to know it. Small typos can still be marked correct.

C

Put it in order

Oldest to newest, smallest to largest. Drag until it looks right.

D

Guess the number

How many? How far? Closest guess wins, or points for everyone who gets close.

E

Matching

Pair everything up so all the combinations line up.

F

Wheel of fortune

Let fate decide: a wheel with names or segments of your own.

G

Poll & word cloud

No right or wrong, just what does the room think? Take the temperature and show the results straight away.

H

Fill the blanks

Which words or numbers are missing from the sentence? Test people on facts, quotes and trivia.

About ClassicQuiz

Professional quizzes for everyone

Hi, I’m Sander, the person behind ClassicQuiz. I love the way quizzes bring people together. They make learning stick, they get people involved and they spark a bit of healthy competition.

But running a properly professional quiz turned out to be harder than I expected: paper answer sheets, a PowerPoint that never quite did what you wanted, adding up points by hand, or paying for expensive tools that did very little. For so many people there had to be an easier way.

So I built ClassicQuiz: one place where questions, music, playing along and live standings all come together. No separate apps, no fiddling about. These days it runs at drinks receptions, weddings, training sessions and in pubs across the Netherlands, Germany and beyond, and we’re still building, mostly on the back of what quizmasters ask for themselves.

ClassicQuiz is small, quick and open about how it works, and it serves organisations of every size, from individuals to large companies. Got an idea or a question? Do get in touch, chances are your idea will end up on our list.

Frequently asked questions

Can I try ClassicQuiz for free?

You can build a quiz and try it out for free. If you want to play with a larger group or use the extra features, you pick a package. Have a look at the packages for the details.

Do players need an app or an account?

No. Players scan the QR code or enter the PIN and play straight away in the browser on their own phone.

How many people can play?

Anything from a living room to a packed hall. People can play on their own or in teams, which is handy for a pub quiz where one phone per table does the answering.

What else do I need?

A big screen or projector for the presentation, a laptop to present from, and wifi or mobile data for the players. That’s it.

Can I use music and video in my quiz?

Yes. Adding music and videos is straightforward. Media plays automatically as soon as the question appears.

Can I play my quiz more than once?

Absolutely. Once you’ve built a quiz, you can start it again as often as you like, which works well for regular pub quiz nights or training sessions.
