I really don't think this is the case. For the demographic that currently uses Snapchats (mostly 18 to 24 year-olds), paying for mobile software at all is a pretty significant behavior change.

It doesn’t have to be subscription or pay to download. You have the user looking at your App 12 hours a day. Be innovative on how to extract money from them.
