About Fizzer
Our story
Starting at the bottom of the slopes to reach the top…
The story of Fizzer began in 2014 in a well-known ski resort. After an exciting day of slaloming through the bumpy slopes, Baptiste and Vincent only had one thing on their minds: sharing their adventures with loved ones!
Ignoring the biting cold and icy conditions, they bravely set out to find postcards and stamps. They then gathered around a hot mulled wine, trying to capture their feelings as accurately as possible. But when it came time to mail their postcards, the blizzard that had picked up discouraged them from searching for a mailbox. “It would be amazing to send postcards directly from your phone without leaving the couch!” thought the two friends. And thus, the seed was planted…
The Growing App
From that moment, things started to snowball. Baptiste and Vincent became partners and launched Fizzer. Each year, the number of cards sent increased eightfold, and after appearing on the French TV show Capital in 2017, Fizzer even ranked 5th in app downloads for 48 hours, surpassing Snapchat and Instagram!
The Family Grows
Since then, personalized postcards have expanded to include other products, and Fizzer’s catalog has grown like never before, including invitations, photo albums, family journals and more.
MVPs only in our team
Acquired by Clairefontaine in 2022, the company is now part of the Digital Photo Group alongside Lalalab, Photoweb, and Joomeo.
Ich bin ein Berl…Fizzer
Since July 2023, Fizzer has made its debut in the German market, with both the website and app now available.
Extreme makeover: Fizzer edition
But that’s not all. After a complete overhaul (both visual and editorial), Fizzer continues to forge its path and aims to become the European leader in sending paper-based news. The goal of this team of enthusiasts? To gently dethrone WhatsApp as the favorite app for sharing our best life moments.
Our Philosophy
Life for real!
In the age of social media, filters and other virtual staging, we often wonder where spontaneity has gone.
At Fizzer, we believe that the most unforgettable moments are also the most unexpected, that the greatest laughs are the most uncontrollable, and that the best memories aren’t manufactured, they are lived.
So let’s use the modern means of communication to reconnect with the preciousness of paper and cast aside the obsession with appearances to simply be 100% ourselves, 100% authentic and 100% real!
Our Commitments
Cross my heart and hope to die!
Green and against all odds
All Fizzer products are manufactured, printed, and shipped from France. They are labeled Imprim’Vert, adhering to a charter that promotes putting in place systems to reduce the environmental impact of printing activities. Our papers are also FSC certified (except for the magnetic card).
The right time to deepen social connections
From postcards to family newsletters and video cards, Fizzer clearly aims to recreate social connections. To go even further, we actively support retirement home associations like the “Réseau Argo” and participate in the Postcard Festival. A small contribution to a better world…
A healthy collaboration in a healthy team
Our coworkers start each day with a smile because we prioritize their well-being. Kindness and communication are our key principles in collaboration, a credo that pays off, as in 2023, Fizzer achieved 3rd place in its category in the HappyIndex®AtWork ranking!
