I tried the Flipsnack tools on the free trial which was basically a teaser. Thinking that it had the functionalities I needed, I upgraded to a paid tier only to discover that the program's capabilities are significantly more limited than implied. I contacted customer service and they very vaguely quoted from their "policy manual." So it's basically a scam. They imply usability and then tie up your subscription fees. After I cancelled future months, they sent me an email asking me to come back. That's just silly since I had already lost confidence in both their integrity and the product.
Response to Flipsnack: Thank you for the sympathetic response and offer to find a resolution. Sadly your good intentions ended there. As of January 22, I have yet to receive direct communication from you, never experienced a fully functional product, and you've made no attempt to honor a refund. Your empty words have only deepened my distrust and disappointment in Flipsnack.
Companies on Trustpilot can’t offer incentives or pay to hide any reviews.

The platform seems very glitchy with no online explanations of how to fix the glitches. For example we uploaded our magazine and for no particular reason two of the pages are blank despite the PDF being fine. Also with auto playing video backdrops, you can hide the play button, but then every time you turn a page the play buttons show again, spoiling the effect for the reader.
the programs they recommended are quite disappointing. I have found free alternatives online that deliver the same results.
As a result, I will be canceling my subscription. The money I spent on these programs feels unjustified, given that equivalent options are available for free.
Beatrice was incredibly helpful and flexible. She's a great representative for Flipsnack. I suggest offering more affordable prices for Brazilian consumers, especially those who won't make a profit from the app. This would make Flipsnack more attractive and reach more people.

Very poor customer service
Whilst I found the process of creating a magazine on Flipsnack very good, I cannot say the same for their customer service operators.
As I work in an educational establishment, I asked one operator if we were allowed a discount on their Starter pricing package. He said yes and sent me a link for a 30% discount. He explained that the discount was valid for 24 hours.
Having had this approved by my line manager, I contacted Flipsnack the next day to commence with the Starter package. I was told that the discount was invalid. (However the 24 hour period had not expired at that time )
The woman I had a conversation with was quite unhelpful. She didn't explain why the discount code was suddenly no longer valid and insisted I was in the wrong.
Hence giving Flipsnack 2 stars for customer service.

Bad Customer Service
The product is ok. The customer service is awful. I haven't used the product in a year. I forgot about it and realized they charged me for another year about a week ago. I thought I had auto-renew turned off. They say they have a no-refund policy but will make exceptions if the charge is recent and you haven't used the product recently. I haven't logged in to the service in a year. I contacted customer service and asked for a refund. Some rep name Ramona tells me I can't have a refund but then quotes the policy, which I told her I read and I fit the criteria. She told me it didn't matter if I wasn't using it; the service was still there. She also tells me the charge must be less than ten days. This is listed NOWHERE on the website. I pointed that out and she said it's an internal rule. The interaction with her ensures I will never use this company again, and I won't be referring them to anyone else. Do not use them. There are other companies with better customer service.

SPAMMERS
Repeatedly getting spam emails from your people asking for backlinks. It's tacky, cheap and not ok to spam people. None of us are interested.

We have been using Flipsnack to build an online program guide for our Wellbeing Think Tank events. It is easy to use, looks sharp, and we get complimented every event on how professional it looks. I'd highly recommend Flip snack to other organizations and small businesses.
