SnapCoins: What They Are and How to Use Them at Your Events
SnapCoins are the Snap360App currency: you use them inside the app to pay for the extras you need at each event, like AI overlays and AI music, WhatsApp or SMS delivery and extra cloud storage. Your plan stays the same: SnapCoins are added on top of your subscription, they don't replace it.
That way you only pay for what you use. If you don't send anything by WhatsApp at one event, you spend nothing; if you generate three AI overlays at the next one, you spend three SnapCoins. And your first ones are on us.
Key Takeaways
- What they are: the app currency for the extras at each event.
- What they pay for: AI overlays and AI music, premium overlays, WhatsApp or SMS delivery and extra storage.
- Welcome gift: 10 with SNAPPHOTO, PRO or DIAMOND PRO and 3 with the Free Plan, once per account.
- When you run out: buy a pack or a monthly subscription inside the app.
- What doesn't change: your plan is billed as usual and SnapCoins are separate.
What Each Feature Costs in SnapCoins
The app shows you the price before you confirm each purchase. These are today's prices:
| Feature | SnapCoins | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| AI overlay | 1 per overlay | Type the event theme and the app creates a one-of-a-kind overlay |
| AI music | 2 per song | Describe the vibe and the app creates a song for your videos |
| Premium overlay | 2 per overlay | The overlay is yours forever |
| WhatsApp delivery | 1 per send | The guest gets the gallery link right away |
| SMS delivery | 5 per send | The gallery link arrives by text message |
| Extra storage for 30 days | 35 for 5 GB, 60 for 10 GB or 100 for 20 GB | More cloud space without deleting any event. Requires an active paid plan |
QR code delivery doesn't use SnapCoins. And if an AI overlay or song fails to generate, or a WhatsApp send doesn't arrive, the SnapCoins go straight back to your balance.
How Many SnapCoins You Get as a Gift
- With a paid plan (SNAPPHOTO, PRO or DIAMOND PRO): 10 SnapCoins as a gift.
- With the Free Plan: 3 SnapCoins so you can see how they work.
It's a one-time welcome gift per account and it doesn't expire. If you started on the Free Plan and move to a paid plan, we top up your gift to 10: if you still have your 3, you get 7 more; if you already spent them, you get 10.
With 10 SnapCoins you can, for example, generate 10 AI overlays, create 5 songs or make 10 WhatsApp sends. To get them, open the app, go to SnapCoins and tap Claim on the welcome gift notice.
How to Get More SnapCoins
With an active paid plan you top up from the SnapCoins screen in the app, in two ways:
- One-time pack: 50, 120 or 250 SnapCoins. They don't expire and you spend them at your own pace. A good fit if you do events now and then.
- Monthly subscription: 50, 120 or 250 SnapCoins every month. A good fit if you use music, overlays or WhatsApp at almost every event. Each month's SnapCoins renew with the charge, and the ones you don't spend don't roll over.
The SnapCoins subscription is separate from your plan: you sign up for it and cancel it on its own. Before you pay, you see the price in your currency.
When Do SnapCoins Expire?
- Welcome gift: they don't expire.
- Packs of 50, 120 or 250: they don't expire.
- Monthly subscription: they last one month and don't add up.
What you buy with them stays too: an AI overlay or song is yours once it's created. Extra storage lasts 30 days and doesn't renew on its own; when it ends, you can buy it again.
How to Get Started
To see how far they go at your next event, check how to create AI overlays in minutes and which songs to play on a 360 photo booth. Plans and what each one includes are on the pricing page.
If you don't have the app yet, start with the Free Plan and its 3 SnapCoins: Start Free with Snap360.
