Common complaints
High base prices for framed photos, wooden prints, and calendars are a common complaint, with users finding them overpriced even after discounts. Shipping fees add up quickly and are not clearly shown upfront. Some users report missed delivery dates, and paper samples often take longer than expected to arrive. Constantly searching for discount codes to get a good deal is seen as a negative by several customers.

How it has changed over time
Perception of value has fluctuated but stayed generally positive. The highest satisfaction was 4.89 stars in October 2025, driven by strong product quality and fast service. Satisfaction dropped to 3.79 stars in March 2026, likely due to delayed deliveries and pricing concerns. Ratings have since stabilized, showing that issues remain but have not caused a widespread decline in perception.
Practical takeaways
Pixum offers good value when using active discounts or choosing lower-cost items like photo cards and digital prints. Avoiding framed or large-format products helps prevent overpaying. Delivery timelines should be checked early. Prices in Switzerland are significantly higher than in Germany. The app’s ease of use and fast service can compensate for higher costs, especially for users who prioritize convenience and quality.
