Why should I use this service?
Experience the thrill of surprise: With Film Swap, you can experience the unique thrill of receiving a roll of film shot by a complete stranger. The anticipation and surprise of not knowing what’s on the film is truly an unforgettable experience.

What am I paying exactly?

Our service as intermediate guarantees you an anonymous exchange without communicating your personal address to an unknown person.
Please notice: the costs paid are solely intended to cover expenses and are not aimed at pursuing any financial profit.
What do you do with my personal data?
Nothing. Your payment data are transmitted us through the WordPress and Stripe IT infrastructure and we will use it only to proceed with the invoice and to communicate with you via email in case of need. Nothing more, nothing less. Promised!
Why only film photography?
With film photography, the process of taking a picture becomes more deliberate and thoughtful, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the moment and the experience.
Waiting time is part of the surprise: With analog photography, the waiting time for the film to be developed is part of the anticipation and surprise. This adds to the unique experience that our service offers.
Secure exchange: Sending and receiving physical film ensures that no one can view the contents of the photos except for the two photographers, guaranteeing true anonymity. Digital photos can be easily shared and viewed by others without permission, compromising the privacy of our customers.
