Dorset’s ClickASnap signs with Merchr to help users sell their snaps

Picture-sharing platform ClickASnap has agreed a new partnership with international print-on-demand business Merchr.

The deal connects the Dorset firm to Merchr’s customers across the UK, Europe and North America, with products shipped from its facilities in both Middleton, Greater Manchester and Scottsdale, Arizona.

Founded in 2014, the ClickASnap digital platform hosts more than 16 million images, allowing users to showcase and monetise their photos.

Jason Hill, chief executive of ClickASnap, said: “Our partnership has got off to a superb start, with over 1,800 photographers signing up in the first month.

“We look forward to seeing the number of stores grow on our platform to give more people the opportunity to sell their pictures.”

Merchr’s product portfolio includes clothing, hats, towels, blankets, mugs, placemats, phone cases, coasters, hot water bottles, tote and make-up bags, pouches and highlighter pens, water bottles and tumblers.

The company uses water-based inks and BPA-free plastic bottles, as well as organic cotton in its garments.

Peter Hallett, co-founder of Merchr, added: “This exclusive partnership is an exciting strategic move for both parties, as it enables ClickASnap users to further monetise their photographs by leveraging Merchr’s software.

“Initially, the partnership is being rolled out to ClickASnap’s premium members, with a focus on supplying canvas and framed canvas and prints across Europe and North America.

“ClickASnap members can create their webstores in sterling, US and Canadian dollars, and euros, depending on where they wish to sell their images.”
