Smilebox has garnered a reputation for offering creative design tools that users appreciate for their potential and ease of use. However, the company faces significant criticism regarding its pricing structure, with many customers feeling misled by subscription terms and unexpected charges. Complaints about poor customer service, including a lack of phone support and difficulty in canceling subscriptions, are prevalent. Overall, while the product has loyal users, the negative sentiments surrounding billing practices and inadequate support suggest a pressing need for Smilebox to enhance transparency and customer service to retain its user base.

I love being able to create personalised greetings, facebook covers, slide shows etc. So many options - and to add music or sound waves... it's great!
It is a very amazing what you can do with smile box creations on this site and I am please with the results I get
Beautiful designs and themes in combination with music library¡¡
SmileBox quoted a monthly price for their premium service. However they charged me an annual amount. This is 12x what I expected to pay. I have asked several times in writing for SmileBox to adjust my term from annual to monthly, but SmileBox Customer Service has refused.
I sent one e-invitation to a dozen persons, and it cost me nearly 50 bucks. If you stay away from the premium service, you'll be ok. Just don't give them your credit card number, PayPal, etc. Check the BBB web site; there are over 100 complaints related to SmileBox billing practices.
UPDATE: Smilebox did eventually give me a partial refund.
You lack "updating and adding", "Thinking of You" Category e-greetings, specifically LOVE, as I use it most every day to my lover (wife).
This is a great site for photographers who do personalized greeting cards. The designs are unique and well worth the membership. I am very happy with Smilebox!
If YOU don't have SmileBox, you might be lacking some essential vitamins! Get SmileBox and really PERK up your attitude. You won't regret it! They really know how to do it up right. Make your memories special and share them with those you care about! What better time to start than at the holiday season?
It is really easy to use and fun to create all kinds of stuff!
I like the way it can make any type of card and it stores all your creations for you. I also love the way it pulls pictures from anywhere you want whether it's facebook or just a picture file on your computer. I have used smilebox not only to create graduation announcements, but to send them. No stamps needed and you can print them or send them to your favorite store to be print if you want a hard copy.
It's REALLY AWESOME especially if you have kids and want to send musical pictures to all your friends.
Smilebox is awesome. I get to express myself through the collages and share them with myfamily and friend on Facebook. The albums are great. I recommend this site to everyone.
I absolutely love Smilebox! I have so many slideshows and my grandchildren love to watch them. I do one for their birthdays and their school activities. It is just wonderful!
Not enough traditional religious cards to choose from like the last two years?
I have used this site for so many occasions, for birthdays, grandchildren's visit, death of family members and there are so many other occasions that would take me for ever to mention. This is one of my very favorite sites. The templates and music is easy to use to send your family and friends current photos that makes a difference in their life.
This is a nifty little piece of software, that makes brilliant presentations that can be emailed, saved and shared without difficulty. Easy to use (and download), with a good range of choice and ways of adapting it to fit what you want to do. Well worth it!
I been using this site for years, I was a bit worried by the box and the teeth I thought it might be a bad site
Well its just the opposite its wonderful, very good value, once youv'e join you can do so much and you can save on all the money that the postage stamps cost and save a fortune, as they have just gone up again
EXCELLENT SITE WELL DONE
Smilebox me permite convertir los recuerdos de momentos vividos en una sinfonía de formas, de colores y de sonidos que generan en quien recibe la "cajita feliz" sorpresa, alegría, fascinación... eres feliz y despiertas felicidad!
Чудесная программа! Хороший вкус у дизайнеров, легко и удобно пользоваться!
Love Love Love this website! It makes it so much fun to share pictures on a slideshow! Highly recommend!
Discovering Smilebox.com was a great opportunity to start designing new ways to share family photos. Their site was easy to use and offered so many cute ways to present photos or videos that could be sent to friends and relatives. Their monthly/yearly subscription isn't too bad if you do a lot of design work or wish to use social networking sites. Easy to use, options are many, and fun, delightful results.
Smilebox is an easy way to make fabulous creations to send to family, friends, and students, (if you are a teacher)! The support is fast, polite and thorough, if you have questions about ANYTHING!
A smilebox can be ready to send in 5 minutes, but it always takes me longer because I have a hard time choosing from all of the amazing formats! Everyone I send Smileboxes to enjoys receiving them and they always look forward to the next one I send.
Answer: It sounds like the pixels don't support the size you are trying to view it in. Try shrinking the output and see if that helps. If all of your pictures are still blurry, make sure your software is up to date. Hope this helps and congrats on your wedding!
Answer: Hello! Thank you for your question. F you purchase the Pro plan, you can download your creation as a video file and share it with the recipients. There would be no need to continue paying for the annual plan. If you share your creation online, you will see a Smilebox watermark and limited functionality once your subscription is canceled. Please send an email to [email protected] so we can reply faster if any questions appear.
Answer: NO charge for using the electronic cards designated as "FREE"
