Can I send invitations by text message for free?

Yes. Eventi is free to start with no credit card. Your invitation goes out as a WhatsApp message - the modern text message - with one-tap RSVP buttons, so you're not paying per SMS or chasing replies by hand.

Why WhatsApp instead of SMS?

SMS gives you 160 characters, no image, no reply buttons, and no read receipts. WhatsApp carries your full invitation design, shows delivery and opens per guest, and lets guests answer with one tap. For most guest lists it's the same phone number, just the app they actually use.

How do guests RSVP to a text invitation?

The message includes three buttons: Yes, No, and Not sure yet. One tap records the answer in your dashboard instantly. Guests can also change their reply later on their personal RSVP page.

Do guests need to install anything?

No. The invitation arrives in WhatsApp, which your guests already have. There's no app to install, no account to create, and no form to fill.

Can I send a picture invitation by text?

Yes. Upload the invitation image you designed - or link to an external event page - and that's exactly what guests see in the chat.

What about guests who don't reply to the text?

Set up to three automatic reminder rounds. Only guests without a firm answer get reminded; everyone who already replied is left alone.

How text invitations work with Eventi.

Four steps, a few minutes.

1. Add your guest list

Type numbers in or import a CSV / Excel file - each one validated before sending.

2. Send your invitation

Your design lands as a WhatsApp message from a real business number.

3. Collect one-tap replies

Yes, No, or Not sure yet - no links to type, no forms to fill.

4. Let reminders follow up

Up to three automatic rounds for the quiet ones only.

SMS was the idea.
WhatsApp is the upgrade.

A plain SMS invite is 160 characters and a prayer. The same message in WhatsApp carries your design, tells you who opened it, and answers itself with buttons.

Know who saw it

Delivery and read status per guest, from WhatsApp's own receipts - SMS can't do that.

Replies without typing

One-tap buttons instead of guests texting back 'yes we're coming!!' in fourteen formats you have to tally.

Follow-ups handled

Reminder rounds go only to non-responders, automatically - no scrolling your sent folder.

Text invitation questions, answered.

Everything you need to know before you send.
