Important Notes

  • Credits are purchased from the Account > Top Up section of your Snappic dashboard.

  • Depending on your plan (Pro, Enterprise, or Enterprise Plus), some free credits may be included.

  • Each credit represents one use of its specific feature (e.g., one SMS, one background removal).

  • USA and Canada users receive free text message credits, while international users need to purchase credits or connect a personal Twilio account.


Text Credits

Text credits allow you to enable SMS sharing at your event, giving guests the ability to receive their photo booth sessions via text message.

  • Free for USA and Canada users.

  • Required for international users unless integrated with Twilio.

  • Free text credits by package:

    • Pro Plan: 30 monthly credits or 300 annually

    • Enterprise / Enterprise Plus: 100 per event, 250 monthly, or 3,000 annually

This makes text credits essential for ensuring seamless media sharing outside North America.


Virtual Booth / Uploader & Watch Folder Credits

Snappic combines Virtual Booth and Uploader Credits into one top-up option, so you can use the credits interchangeably depending on your event setup.

Virtual Booth

Virtual Booth creates a remote, browser-based booth experience where users can capture photos just like at a physical booth. It’s perfect for online events, conferences, and hybrid setups.

  • Enterprise Event Package with Virtual Booth: 400 free credits (non-transferable)

  • Enterprise Monthly/Annual with Virtual Booth add-on: 300 free credits (non-transferable)

Uploader / Watch Folder

The Uploader App allows you to import content from external software (e.g., DSLR-based booths, 360 booths) into your Snappic event gallery. This enables you to use Snappic’s microsite, analytics, and sharing features with third-party capture systems.


Background Removal Credits

Background Removal eliminates the need for a green screen by digitally removing and replacing image backgrounds.

  • 1 credit = 1 background removal per image

  • Useful for branded backdrops, themed activations, and unique event designs

  • Provides a polished and professional finish for photos without extra hardware


AI Sharing Credits

AI Sharing transforms the guest experience by using facial recognition to identify and deliver all media that includes a registered participant.

  • Once registered, guests automatically receive every photo, GIF, or video they appear in

  • Media is delivered to their personal gallery via email or SMS

  • Eliminates the need for manual sharing at the booth

  • Requires AI Sharing credits for activation

This is one of Snappic’s most advanced features, streamlining the guest journey while increasing engagement.


AI-FX Credits

AI-FX brings next-level creativity to your event with AI-powered filters and effects.

  • Credits are consumed based on effect complexity (1–6 credits per image at live events)

  • Testing effects on the dashboard consumes 0.25 credits per image

  • Features include fantasy-style transformations, artistic filters, and creative effects such as style transfers or face swaps【5:3†How to Set Up AI-FX (AI Experience)†L50-L65】

These effects make content more shareable, helping to boost brand exposure and guest satisfaction.
