Kicksend

Kicksend is a digital platform specializing in seamless photo sharing and printing services, enabling users to effortlessly create customized gifts and maintain personal connections through tangible keepsakes. Kicksend provides a service that allows users to share and print photos easily. Founded in Mountain View, US, Kicksend raised USD 1. 00 mn in a Seed funding round led by DG Ventures and True Ventures on April 25, 2016.

The company was acquired by Pocket Games Inc. in the same month, signaling a strategic shift in its business operations. Kicksend offers a variety of customizable photo products, including prints, photo cards, and unique gift items such as mugs and blankets. The service caters to consumers in the US and Canada, providing options for same-day pickup and home delivery, facilitating easy creation of personalized gifts for various occasions.

Kicksend generates revenue through individual transactions for its photo printing and gift services, with each product priced separately. This model allows for straightforward purchasing decisions, supported by the convenience of same-day service to meet customer needs effectively. Following its acquisition by Pocket Games Inc. in April 2016, Kicksend plans to expand its product range and enhance its service offerings.

The recent funding will be utilized to develop new personalized product lines and improve operational capabilities for broader market reach, particularly targeting expansion within North America by late 2017.
