Questions

Everything else

No. The invitation opens in any browser on any phone, tablet or computer. There is no app, no account and no sign-up for your guests — they simply tap your link and reply.

Every invitation lives on an unguessable private link and is excluded from search engines. You can add an access code so that only guests who know it can view the details, and you can revoke a link at any time.

Yes. Upload a CSV or paste names and numbers straight from a spreadsheet or your phone contacts. We de-duplicate as we go, and you can review everything before a single message is sent.

Your event moves to an archive where the full guest list, responses and check-in record stay available to export. Nothing is deleted unless you delete it.

All major South African and international cards, plus instant EFT. Once-off plans are a single payment for that event; subscriptions can be cancelled at any time from your settings.

Absolutely. Your first event is free, and the whole product runs in a live demo mode you can explore right now — no card, no commitment. Open the demo dashboard.
