MyHeritage and ScanCafe partner to digitize and preserve family memories

Family history technology company MyHeritage, has partnered with photo and video digitization service ScanCafe to give consumers an easy and safe way to digitize their family memories.  MyHeritage is now the recommended cloud storage option for all customers who order ScanCafe’s services, and ScanCafe is now the recommended bulk media scanning solution for MyHeritage’s U.S. users. For every ScanCafe order where cloud storage on MyHeritage is selected, or where MyHeritage is the referring service, the digitized media files from ScanCafe are automatically transferred for safekeeping on MyHeritage, and the user’s ScanCafe and MyHeritage accounts are seamlessly connected through a secure integration.

“Many of us have childhood photo albums and shoe boxes full of treasured photos tucked away at home, and each one holds a piece of our family story,” said Gilad Japhet, founder and CEO of MyHeritage. “While MyHeritage’s mobile apps include built-in photo scanning, many people don’t have the time to scan their photos one by one. With ScanCafe’s state-of-the-art bulk scanning service now integrated with MyHeritage, it’s never been easier to have your family’s entire media collection of memories professionally digitized by ScanCafe and securely stored on the MyHeritage platform for posterity — alongside all your family history materials. This collaboration reflects our unwavering commitment to expand the MyHeritage platform through initiatives that help families safeguard their memories and explore their family history in new and meaningful ways.”

“Behind every family photo and video is a personal story waiting to be rediscovered, and deserving to be told,” said Anderson Schoenrock, CEO of ScanCafe. “We’re thrilled to partner with MyHeritage, a global leader in family history, to make it easy for families to preserve their memories and discover the people, places, and stories that bring them to life.”

ScanCafe customers who select the MyHeritage cloud storage plan at checkout will receive cloud storage for their photos and unlimited access to MyHeritage’s suite of photo features through monthly and annual subscription options, with the first month provided for free.

MyHeritage users in the U.S. will enjoy a 50% discount at ScanCafe for a limited time. MyHeritage subscribers with a Complete, Omni, or Photo plan who accept MyHeritage’s referral to digitize their memories with ScanCafe will have their digitized media files automatically uploaded to their account on MyHeritage.
