How to get 50 free prints on Snapfish UK.
Snapfish still gives away 50 standard prints a month — but only inside its UK app, only for 12 months, and only if you order before the month ends. Here is the whole process and every catch.
- How many
- 50 a month, 600 over 12 months
- Size
- 6x4" or 5.3x4" standard prints
- You pay
- Delivery only: £1.49–£4.49
- Where
- Snapfish UK app. Not the website.
Step by step
- 1
Install the Snapfish UK app
iPhone or Android. It must be the UK app — the offer does not apply to snapfish.co.uk in a browser.
- 2
Open it and log in
Create an account or sign in. The 50-print credit is attached to your account the moment you log in for the first time. No promo code.
- 3
Pick up to 50 photos
Standard 6x4" (15x10cm) or 5.3x4" prints only. Collage prints do not count. Gloss or matt both qualify.
- 4
Check the basket
The credit applies automatically at checkout. The print line should read £0.00 for the first 50; anything over 50 is charged at the normal price (20p list, often 10p on sale).
- 5
Pay the delivery
Standard delivery starts at £1.49 and Snapfish says it never goes above £4.49 for print orders. This is the only charge on a pure free-print order.
- 6
Come back next month
Another 50 credits arrive each month for 12 months. Unused credits expire at the end of the month — they do not roll over.
The four catches
- App only. Snapfish’s own terms: “Offer does not apply when ordering from snapfish.co.uk.” Do not build a basket in a browser and expect the credit.
- Twelve months. The monthly credit runs for a year from your first login. FreePrints has no end date.
- Expires monthly. Skip October and October’s 50 are gone.
- No stacking. The free-print credit cannot be combined with other Snapfish codes or sales.
What 50 free prints actually costs
Fifty 6x4s with standard delivery: £1.49 to £4.49, depending on how the postage band lands for your order. That is 3p–9p a print, all-in. Tesco and ASDA are 60p a print at that quantity; Photobox is about 14p plus £3.99 postage. Run your own numbers in the price comparison.
Snapfish 50 vs FreePrints 45
| Snapfish UK | FreePrints | |
|---|---|---|
| Free a month | 50 | 45 |
| Free a year | 600, then the offer ends | 500, ongoing |
| Sizes | 6x4 or 5.3x4 | 6x4 only |
| Delivery | £1.49–£4.49 | £1.49–£3.99, or free collection points |
| Same photo twice | Allowed within the 50 | One free print per photo |
| Credit expires | End of each month | Monthly cap, no 12-month cliff |
Most people who want the maximum run both: 95 free 6x4s a month for two postage charges. Read the Snapfish listing and the FreePrints app guide for the detail on each.
