Why is a photo subscription a good maternity gift?
Most maternity gifts get used for a few weeks and then forgotten. A photo subscription is different — it keeps arriving, month after month, turning the baby's milestones into printed memories the parents actually hold in their hands.
Flore Deman, award-winning Belgian illustrator, recommended giving a klikkie subscription as a birth gift for the first year. It captures every stage — from the first smile to the first steps — without the parents having to do anything except pick their favourite 10 photos each month.
It is also one of the few gifts that does not add clutter. No extra stuff in the nursery, no batteries required — just printed photos arriving in a black envelope on the doormat.
How do you give a photo subscription as a gift?
1. Go to klikkie.com and choose "Give as a gift"
2. Pick the duration — 3, 6, or 12 months
3. Choose your delivery method — physical gift card or digital code
4. Add a personal message — included with both options
5. The recipient activates it — they download the app and enter the code
The physical gift card comes beautifully wrapped with a ribbon, making it ready to hand over at a baby shower or hospital visit. The digital code is sent instantly by email — perfect for last-minute gifts.

What is a good gift for new grandparents?
Grandparents often say the same thing: they want more photos of the grandchildren, but they never get them. A klikkie photo subscription solves that in two ways:
Option 1: Gift the subscription to the parents, so they print photos and share them with grandparents.
Option 2: Set up a subscription where the baby photos are sent directly to the grandparents' address.
For the older generation, holding a printed photo still means more than receiving one on WhatsApp. It is something they put on the fridge, on the mantelpiece, or in a frame — a physical connection to the grandchild they can see every day.
How do you redeem a klikkie gift code?
1. Download the klikkie app on iPhone or Android
2. Create an account or log in
3. Go to settings and tap "Redeem code"
4. Enter the code from the gift card or email
5. Start choosing photos — the subscription activates immediately
The code does not expire for 12 months after purchase, so the recipient can activate it whenever they are ready.
Can you combine a gift card with other klikkie products?
Yes. A popular combination for maternity gifts is a photo subscription plus a Starter Set — the subscription provides the photos, and the Starter Set gives the parents a scrapbook album to arrange their favourites. It turns a good gift into a complete package.
You can also pair it with a photo book of the pregnancy or the baby's first weeks, created by a friend or family member as a surprise.
