No—Snapchat does not say that sending Snaps earns more Snapscore than receiving them. Its official explanation names both sent and received Snaps as factors, but Snapchat keeps the formula and each factor’s weight secret. Snapchat+ offers an optional multiplier for eligible exchanges with other Snapchat+ subscribers; it applies to sending or receiving, not just one direction.
Does sending or receiving Snaps earn more points?
There is no published basis for saying that one direction earns more. Snapchat says its “super-secret, special equation” combines the number of Snaps sent and received, Stories posted, and “a couple other factors.” It does not disclose points per Snap or separate weights for sent and received Snaps.

That means the accurate comparison is limited: Snapchat confirms both sending and receiving are inputs, but does not say whether they contribute equally—or how much either changes a particular score. Claims that sending is worth more, or that every Snap adds a fixed number of points, go beyond what Snapchat publishes.

- Snaps sent and received: Both are named in Snapchat’s explanation.
- Stories posted: Snapchat lists these as another part of the equation.
- Other factors: Snapchat mentions “a couple other factors” but does not identify them in the support explanation.
The support information does not specify exact increments, when score changes appear, how group activity is counted, or what the other factors are. Treat precise rules about those details as unverified unless Snapchat publishes them.

How Snapchat+’s Snapscore Multiplier works
Snapchat says Snapchat+ subscribers can grow their score twice as fast when they send a Snap to or receive one from another Snapchat+ subscriber. The multiplier is optional and off by default. The published description gives the same eligibility condition for either direction; it does not say sending receives a larger boost. Snapchat Support: How does Snapscore Multiplier work with Snapchat+?
To enable it, open the Snapchat+ membership card from My Account and turn on Snapscore Multiplier. The feature only applies to the described exchanges with another Snapchat+ subscriber. A subscription should not be treated as a guaranteed way to achieve a particular score: Snapchat does not publish the underlying point values or promise a target increase.

Where to find your Snapscore
Open your Profile screen and look under your name. Snapchat also says there is no way to lower or reset a Snapscore, so there is no official reset option if you want to start over.
