The founders of Passportica were becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the available options for obtaining passport photos, which lead them to create an online service. President and CEO Dr. Sean O'Grady had been through 14 passport photos in a single year before he and his team decided that there should be a simpler way.  Passportica solves two major concerns for people needing passport photos: it lets consumers control their photo by allowing uploads from smartphones or cameras, and it can be done from the comfort of the home, on-the-go, or just about anywhere making it more convenient than traditional brick and mortar options.

In addition to being an affordable option to consumers, Passportica's ease of use and speedy delivery (most locations in the continental U.S. report delivery times of 2 days) make it stand out from competitors. Its design is based off of strict guidelines set by the United States government to ensure the highest standards for acceptance are met. They also offer a money-back guarantee to any dissatisfied customers, no questions asked.  By reducing the risk to their users, the founders of Passportica think that they can become the brand name for online passport photos in the U.S., with plans to expand to other countries in the coming year.

Currently, Passportica's web app is available to anyone with an internet connection, however they'll soon be adding an app for the iPhone, and one for Android phones as well.  For more information or to contact the team check https://passportica.com or you can reach them directly on twitter (@passportica)

Passportica is an online passport photo service that lets users shoot and upload a pic of their choice, which is printed and delivered.
