Not initially. You can go ahead and start the design process without an account, but we recommend you do create one so you can save your creations. Having an account means all of your designs and elements are stored in one place, and if you want to revisit your brochure later, or handover the project to someone else - it will be all there.

Short answer: the total & final price will be clearly visible to you at the check-out.

Longer answer:

When you are ordering your print job online, the first step will be to select from a number of different options: the product type and size; paper/card stock; specialty finishes; single or double-sided printing, and quantity. You will then be shown the price for printing your order, based on your selections. This price includes VAT, but excludes any applicable Canva design and/or delivery charges.

In the second step, you will select your design option. If you create your design using the 'Snap Print-Design, Powered by Canva' tool, a modest flat fee (starting at €25) for 'Canva Design & Pre-Press' will be applied in the check-out.

The applicable delivery charge will applied to your order in the check-out.

The total cost will then be calculated and appear in the check-out.

If you create your design using the 'Snap Print-Design – Powered by Canva'  tool you have the choice to either design it from scratch or be inspired by one of the thousands of customisable templates available. When you’re done, just save it as a digital file. Of course, if you want to order prints, simply follow the prompts and we will have you covered.

The 'Snap Print-Design – Powered by Canva' tool is the result of a unique collaboration between Canva and SNAP. We have worked closely with Canva to design a tool that seamlessly creates files that are ready to be printed by any of our SNAP Centres. You no longer need to think about using the right colour mode or adding bleed and crop. When you print a file created in the tool, you will be charged a small once-off design and prepress fee of €25 excl VAT. This will be clearly indicated as a line item at the time of payment.
