Storage overview
Snapfish offers free, unlimited storage of your online photos. There is no limit to the number of digital photos you can upload. You can have an unlimited number of albums and photos in your account.
About the quality of your online photos
When you upload photos to the Snapfish website, you have two choices:
- Fast upload
- Large print upload
When you choose Large print upload, we upload a high-resolution image to your Snapfish account. This size is good for everything on the Snapfish site, including poster prints.
Whichever upload you select, we maintain two copies of your photo, one low-resolution and one high-resolution. The low-res photos are what you see when you view and share your photos on our website. The hi-resolution photos are stored in our system and used to produce prints, enlargements, and photo gifts. Learn more about photo resolutions.
Free, unlimited storage
Your photos will remain in your Snapfish online account indefinitely, as long as you remain an active member of the service. Active participation in the service is defined as purchasing photo merchandise (prints, enlargements, or any photo gift) through the website at least once every 365 days. If your account is inactive for a period of 335 days or more, we will email you about the pending deletion of your online photos. At that time, you will have the option to re-activate your account, thereby preserving your online photos.
Note to digital camera users:
We recommend keeping a backup copy of all photos you upload to Snapfish on your own computer. That way, you will always have a backup of your photos.
