Free prints & bonus prints
How many free prints can I order?
You can order up to 85 FREE individual 4x6 photo prints per calendar month, which means you can order up to 1000 4x6 prints per year! You can even earn up to 17 bonus prints per month by inviting friends or family, and by sharing on X.
I have no free prints remaining, when do I get more?
Your free prints count resets at Midnight Pacific time on the 1st of every calendar month.
I didn’t use all of my free prints this month, do they roll over to next month?
Unfortunately not. If you don’t use your free prints this month, you will lose them once the month ends.
How can I earn bonus prints?
Just share on X and get 2 bonus prints per calendar month. Inviting friends earns 5 bonus prints for every friend who places an order (maximum 17 prints). Your friends will also get 5 bonus prints just for signing up. These bonus prints are available every month for a six-month period.
How do I invite friends?
Tap your Drawer (3 horizontal lines in the upper left corner). Then tap Earn Bonus Prints and invite your friends and family to try FreePrints. You can even share via X. Please note, standard messaging rates apply for sharing via SMS.
Someone I invited to FreePrints signed up. Why didn't I get any bonus prints?
You will receive bonus prints when they have successfully placed an order. Friends must use your unique invite code at time of account creation to earn bonus prints.
