Partiful
What it is
Partiful helps hosts invite guests, track RSVPs, and send event updates through a shareable link. Hosts can customize invitations with backgrounds, fonts, animations, and posters, then reach guests with text blasts. Guests can RSVP using a phone number and add photos to the event page after the party. Hosts can set events to public or private, hide the guest list, require a password, or enable guest approval. Events can sync with Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar; Google Calendar information updates roughly every 24 hours. Hosts can collect contributions through Venmo, CashApp, or PayPal and sell tickets through Partiful. Ticketing fees depend on event size and ticket price; free tickets have no fees, and hosts can choose whether to cover fees or pass them to guests. Partiful is available on Android, iOS, and the web, and its core platform is free. Reminders go to invited users signed up for Partiful: two hours before an event for guests marked Going, and one week before for guests marked Maybe or not yet RSVP'd.
