Our verdict on each
Mixbook
Mixbook suits people who want personalized and photo gifts made to order, with cards and gift cards alongside. Prices start at €14.99 and returns run 90 days, so a gift for a family milestone has room to be checked before it is used.
PrinterPix
PrinterPix suits buyers turning their own photos into personalized gifts, with photo books starting at $9.98 and delivery free on photo gifts. It works for planned gifting rather than last-minute purchases: rush shipping still waits on the making time, and problems must be raised within 7 days of delivery.

Pros and cons
Mixbook
Pros
- Personalization is offered across the range, which spans personalized, photo gifts and cards.
- Returns run 90 days, wide enough to catch a spelling error or a print fault before a gift is used.
- Delivery covers AU, CA and GB, so the shop reaches the US and the UK as well as Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands.
Cons
- Next day delivery is not offered, so a same-week gift needs a different shop.
- Shipping is charged on top of the product, at $8.99 to $15.99 on an order.
- Support runs on chat, email and help centre only, with no phone line among the options.
PrinterPix
Pros
- Personalization is standard rather than an add-on, so a photo or a message can go on nearly any order.
- Delivery on photo gifts costs $0, which keeps those orders down to the item price.
- Photo Books start at $9.98, so a custom gift can be bought without a large outlay.
Cons
- Next day delivery is off the table, so even a rush order waits on the making time before an item travels.
- A fault has to be reported inside a window of 7 days from delivery, which is tight for a large custom print.
- Support runs on email and chat only, so a reader who prefers a phone call has no direct line.
Who each suits
Mixbook
Who it suits
- People buying a printed photo gift and a matching card in one order.
- Shoppers who order well ahead of a birthday or family milestone, given there is no next day delivery.
- Buyers in Australia, CA and GB who want the same catalogue in their own market.
Who should look elsewhere
- Bourbon Concierge, whose range is gift boxes and personalized rather than printed photo products.
- WristbandExpress.com, if the order is a single custom item and cards or gift cards are not needed, since its list is personalized.
- CEWE, if you want gift boxes alongside your photo gifts, since it also covers gift boxes, personalized and photo gifts.
PrinterPix
Who it suits
- People printing their own photos onto gifts, since personalization is standard across the range.
- Budget buyers starting small: photo books begin at $9.98 and delivery on photo gifts is free.
- Shoppers who can order ahead of the gift date and work around the production window.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who needs a gift in hand tomorrow, because every custom item is made before it ships.
- Shoppers who want longer than 7 days from delivery to raise a problem on a custom order.
- Readers after off-the-shelf gifts rather than items built from their own photos, since personalization runs through the range here.

Questions about each
Mixbook
What does the cheapest Mixbook product cost?+
The entry price is €14.99, and it applies to the smallest items in the range, such as a single card or a small print. Larger pieces, including photo books and calendars, cost more, so the entry figure is the floor rather than a typical spend. Buyers budgeting a gift should treat it as a starting point.
How much is delivery on top of the product?+
Delivery is charged separately from the product price, with shipping costs $8.99 to $15.99 on an order. The band is fixed rather than worked out from weight, so a small card and a large photo book can carry the same delivery charge. Added to €14.99, it sets the floor for what a small gift actually costs to send.
PrinterPix
How much does a PrinterPix gift cost?+
Photo Books start at $9.98, which is the entry price most buyers meet first. Delivery on photo gifts costs $0, so a photo book order can stay at the item price. Pieces further up the range sit above that entry price.
What kinds of gifts does PrinterPix sell?+
PrinterPix sells personalized, photo gifts and cards. Photo books, blankets and mugs anchor the range, and each one takes the photos you supply, so one album can cover a birthday, a holiday gift and a keepsake.
