Do this before January 31

Another change has come to those using digital photo services, impacting how you manage your precious memories. If you currently have photos stored at the Costco Photo Center, it’s crucial to initiate a transfer of your images to Shutterfly before January 31st to prevent any loss of access. This process is straightforward and can be done via Costco’s website, where a clear link guides you through the steps to migrate your photos safely to Shutterfly.

Besides securing your images on Shutterfly, there’s also an option for storing their photos locally on their computer. Detailed instructions for this alternative method are in the FAQs section on Shutterfly’s website, which is dedicated to Costco’s transfer process. With the holiday season upon us, organizing your photo archives and ensuring their preservation might be a good opportunity.

Key Takeaways

  • Ensure photo safety by transferring from Costco to Shutterfly before the January deadline.
  • The transfer process is user-friendly and can be completed online.
  • Options for local storage are available for those not opting for Shutterfly.

Updates to Costco Image Repository

Costco has recently ceased operations of its online photo center, so you must transfer your digital photo collection to Shutterfly to avoid losing your images. The deadline for this transfer is January 31, 2024. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Visit Costco’s website and navigate to the ‘Photos’ section.
  2. You will find a straightforward link at the bottom of the page for migrating your photos to Shutterfly.

To execute the transfer smoothly:

  • Prepare your Costco account number; you will need it for the transfer process.
  • Create a Shutterfly account if you don’t already have one.

If you prefer not to use Shutterfly or wish to have a personal backup, Shutterfly provides an option for downloading your photos directly to your computer. This option can be found in their FAQ section regarding the Costco transfer.

Performing this operation now is advisable, as it is an effortless process that requires minimal time. Doing so will ensure continued access to your cherished photo memories.

I recently completed this transfer and can confirm its ease and efficiency. Don’t delay securing your photos; transfer them by the specified deadline.
