## Overview

StickersMaker is a web app that uses AI to turn one clear portrait photo into a reusable cartoon character, then generates animated reactions of that character with transparent backgrounds. Each reaction can carry an optional caption and is exported in the file formats the target messenger expects: GIF for WeChat, animated WebP and GIF for WhatsApp, WebM and GIF for Telegram, and APNG and GIF for Discord.

## Key features

- Photo to character
- Animated reactions

- WhatsApp export
- WeChat export

## FAQ

**How much does a sticker cost?**

Each sticker costs 10 credits. Packs are $5 for 50 credits, $15 for 180 and $30 for 400, and email verification gives a one-time gift of 20 credits.

**Is there a subscription?**

No. Credits are bought as packs and the site says they do not expire.

**Can I import stickers straight into WhatsApp?**

No. The site provides files but not one-click import. The animated WebP needs a compatible animated-sticker importer, and a WhatsApp pack needs at least three stickers.

**What photos work?**

PNG, JPEG or WebP files up to 5 MB. A clear, well-lit, front-facing photo works best, and likeness and hand movement can vary between results.

**What happens if a generation fails?**

A confirmed failed generation returns its 10 credits automatically. A task whose provider result is still being checked is not yet counted as failed.

**Is my data private?**

The site says photos, characters and stickers are private to your account. Internal processing files are kept for 7 days after a task ends, and saved characters and finished stickers stay until you delete them.
