The Snapfish Journey
Snapfish was launched in 1999 as “Project Skytalk” by business partners Rajil Kapoor, Bala Parthasarathy, Suneet Wadhwa, and Shripati Acharya and the Snapfish.com website launched in April 2000. The Snapfish goal was to ensure everyone could access their memories in a snap (some might refer to it now as the first cloud service) and be able to create beautiful personalised products using them. The site they created withstood and embraced these changes over 20 years, an eternity in technological terms. As a result Snapfish has become the single largest platform of its kind worldwide thanks to you: our customers and partners.
Over the years, Snapfish has seen a number of changes. Snapfish was acquired by District Photo in October 2001 and launched the UK site, Snapfish.co.uk, in November 2004. In 2005, Snapfish was bought by Hewlett-Packard (HP), and in January 2006 Snapfish acquired bilderservice.de GmbH, which operated PIXACO – a leading online photo services and products site in Europe and launched into Europe. HP sold Snapfish back to District Photo in April 2015 and Snapfish acquired CafePress in November 2018. Finally, on January 8th 2020, Apollo Global Management acquired Snapfish and merged them with Shutterfly into a single entity.

What are the Snapfish Values
- Simplicity. We want your Snapfish experience to be simple and delightful, from browsing our products to creating and ordering your own. That’s how we help you create something beautiful.
- Freedom. The products you make should be as personal and unique as the photos you take. You can start with one of our many designs, or build from scratch with products like photo books and calendars, then add just the creative touches you want. With our tools, you call the creative shots.
- Convenience. When inspiration strikes, we don’t want anything to stop you. Create on your phone, your tablet, your laptop, your desktop. On your comfy sofa, at the kitchen table, even on the bus. Wherever you go, we go. You can download our free photo app here (and get 50 free photo prints a month too!) and all the photos you upload from your app to your account will also be visible when you log into your Snapfish account on your PC.
- Sharing. We play nice with all your favourite photo sharing sites, like Facebook, Instagram, and Google Photos, so you can easily import your pics to Snapfish. And, of course, we make it easy for you to share your photos with family and friends.
- Quality. From professional-grade photo paper to archival-quality inks, premium cardstock and more, we want to make sure you’re happy with your Snapfish products and enjoy them for years to come.
- Customer service. Our goal is to make you smile. When you have questions or concerns, we’re here to listen, understand, and do what we can to help. Whether you prefer to search online or chat with a real (and very nice) human being, we’re focused on addressing your needs.
