Punch Bowl Invitations. They are terrible for busy people who do not have time to hand write and mail invitations. The downside is the technology needs to highlight in the sending of invitations that this a personal invitation from ___________________( name of person you know). My guests who are unaware of modern technology have deleted from my invite list thinking it’s spam. Then an email has to be mailed to unblock their name and number back to your invite list. It’s an unnecessary hassle coming from a personal invite list with friends cell phone numbers.

Awesome App. I’m pretty technically not inclined so this app made everything easy to send my invitations out and it kept everything organized with all my guest and it even alphabetize them according to attendance. It even allows the guest to leave comments if they are not able to attend or if they are able to attend they can still leave a comment. You could always go back and edit your invitation and it updates it on their end as well. Overall great app.

I haven’t had any issues thus far. I just used this app today to create and send out birthday party invitations and it worked like a breeze. Love the feature of putting the guests’ phone numbers in there instead of email address and the option of syncing your contact list from your phone. Saves a lot of time that way. I also like the additional features where you can track RSVPs as well as managing and editing the plus 1 (or 2 or 3) option and managing adults vs. children, putting in registry info/contribution info, and adding a potluck too! I can see all this being super helpful for showers and wedding-related invitations. I look forward to using all of the extra options as well as limiting attendees and enabling RSVP due date for future wedding planning. I can see why adding a host - such as my husband - and poll would cost money. I do feel their monthly fees are pricy… and although I’ve sent my invite with ads (free version) hopefully it wouldn’t be too intrusive or offensive to my guests. Not perfect but still easy to use on my end.

Mature Customer. I am a Senior Citizen.I was in the United States Navy and served my community as an Emergency Nurse for 30 years. My husband is a Korea, Vietnam Veteran of 23 years in the United States Army and we are on a fixed income. Buying cards and postage stamps have been a challenge. I have 11 children , 27 grandchildren and 32 great-grandchildren. One of adult granddaughters told me about Punchbowl and sent me a card. It is so easy and I can now send cards to my beautiful children and their babies. Thank you so much, it was easy to learn. Do you give discounts to Veterans and or Senior Citizens? I have shared with my other seniors, God Bless Bonnie Schneider

UPSELLING TRAPS!!. I actually love the Idea of sending E-Cards ! My recipients adore them as well! But I noticed once you’re at the end of the process PUNCHBOWL always interrupts it with a limitation and you cannot continue or finish the process without having to upgrade your membership or have all you creative work stop or it is deleted! For example, I already paid for the membership which included an “Ad Free” option! I continue to create my E-Card and PUNCHBOWL wouldn’t remove the ad unless I upgraded my membership AGAIN!!! SERIOUSLY!!! A “Hidden Upselling Trap”. What a rip off to the consumer! I’m already frustrated, extremely disappointed and exhausted ...and I’ve only sent 1 card so far!!’

This is fabulous for any family. I absolutely love using Punchbowl to help keep track of birthday invite RSVPs we use it a lot as a family when we’re hosting parties and it’s a wonderful way to easily go through and see who you’ve invited who is able to come who’s not and it just keeps everything in one place. It’s so simple. I love that you can design your own invitation. You can theme them to your kiddos birthday party or for your own party, we absolutely love this app!

Serves it’s purpose. Overall I am please with it being free, good for text/email and keeping things organized. It would be nice to to have a party task or to-do list function. I wish the app would have started with a basic tutorial on the different functions. For example I used the message board and no one that didn’t have the app knew there was information posted there. There are almost too many ways (messages, message board and announcements) to communicate with your invited guests you need to know how the information is received.

Awesome at keeping your guest list organized. At any given moment I was able to pull out my phone and say who was coming was not who have been invited and who had night and has been such a relief to always be ready with my guest list at all times. I gave it four stars instead of five stars only because the interface was a little challenging to adjust to. some of my invitations were failing to be sent and it didn’t always tell me why it was failing so that was a little frustrating but customer service was very helpful.

Perfect for Party Planning. I love ❤️ this app, it’s so easy for any event (especially party 🎉 planning ). I wasn’t sure this app was good, since almost all apps try to steal your information, but this one was totally good! I use Punchbowl for all my events, and sometimes make up excuses to try to use the app. I also like the tracking feature so you know how many people are coming, if there adults, children, infants 👶. So, I would recommend this app to all of my friends that like to plan parties 🎉.

I 💜this app!. I was using another app and every invite I hit, it’s kept giving me an error message. So, I deleted that other app and hit the App Store where I found Punchbowl. I cannot tell you how much I love this app! Excellent graphics and animation. You can email and/or text your guests. I love that you can track responses and even see who hasn’t responded yet. I even set it to remind everyone a day in advance. Swooning over this app! I hope they keep it updated so it stays as good as it is now!!!

Notification text needs work. The app is simple to use. So far I like everything about h the app. I do not like the notification text it sent all of my contacts. I invited a large group of clients to an event. I only had 3 RSVP. I sent the invite to my wife to see what clients received. It looks like Spam. I had a screenshot that I had to send along with an explanation text to everyone. One text to each person. Almost everyone said they had deleted the invite because they thought it was spam. After texting each client with an explanation, I had to resend everyone an invite again. This could easily be resolved I’m sure.

I do pay for this app but there are some issues.. 1. I use this for larger events and seem to have issues on occasion where they will only allow me to send them any messages to make sure I’m not sending spam. I will say that they respond pretty quickly and fix the issue but I don’t see why or how it’s an issue. 2. If I’m using the app from my phone and I want to select a large group of people I have to individually check them that is a pain in the rear end. If I do this on my computer I can just click check off it would be great if they could fix this through their app. 3. To be paying for this app I find it annoying that when I want to send detailed information to my invitation guest list that they limit the text content to 1200 characters. I am paying for this they should allow at least 2000 to 3000. Sometimes I have a very important information and details that I need to send the members and 1200 characters is not always enough. I can understand limiting 1200 characters to non-paying members but to be paying for this I think I should be getting more. Other then that honestly I find them better then e-vite but if they could fix the above things for those paying it would be great.

No The Best But Not The Worse. First Off I like how the app made my invitations etc . However the PURPOSE of the app is to send to multiple ppl to be able to fwrd it share it ect electronically as a pose to the old school mailing way ect. However when i try to send to someone OTHER than whose number is saved in my phone i can’t 🙄 i created the invitations on my phone and tried to send my bf the link to send to his family members via a copy and paste text and what a FAIL !!! basically his family won’t and can’t get an invitation unless i manually add them to the list one by one store their info etc. I really want to give this app five stars but that BLOWS ! & is A LOT of work smh. Things would be sooooo much easier if it was just link anyone who received it could click on and add their self smh

Outdated iPad app and False Advertising. The iPhone app works pretty well but it’s 2019 and we still have apps that don’t go landscape on iPad? C’mon... The best user experience is definitely through their actual website in my opinion. It’s much easier to use and to navigate. The service is a great idea and executes very well, but their pricing schemes are completely misleading. They advertise as having two different monthly plans for each subscription tier. IE if you subscribe to their mid-tier premium plan, they advertise it as $4.99 per month. What they DON’T tell you is that that price is for their yearly membership which is a one time payment of almost $60. The ACTUAL monthly membership is closer to $13 per month. So WATCH OUT FOR THIS COMPANY’S FALSE ADVERTISING

Excellent site and customer service!. I just discovered this invite site when searching for a particular theme invite for my son. I found this site to have so many options, themes, etc! Super easy to use and when I was having an issue, I sent an email requesting some help, expecting to hear back from someone in a few days but they got back to me the same day (within an hour) and were so helpful! I even received an email once I started creating the invitation letting me know they were there for any help I may need. What fabulous customer service....very impressed!!

Punchbowl reunion invitation. I have used this invitation over 10 years and it’s been AMAZING!! I used it for my kids birthday parties my co workers retirement parties…my daughters wedding…and my 50th birthday along side my 30 year retirement!!! I now have 3 grandkids I will be using it for their parties as well… I also past the punch bowl information to many friends and family including my daughter who is now 28 years old….They all love it…it’s User friendly…I love the fact it calculates how many guest are attending…you have so many features options I won’t try any other invites…my loyalty is PUNCHBOWL LOL 😆 You are able to email or text the invites which is so convenient…I just LOVE it 😍🥰❤️ Thank you Punch Bowl for making my events throughout the years so easy and convenient 🙏🙏🙏

So efficient!!!. This app saves so much time (which is so precious to Mom’s everywhere)spent on searching the internet for pricey custom paper invites for a party! Instead of agonizing over addresses and styles of cards and when to send, I just easily loaded the app and within five minutes found the card I loved that matched the theme of my party, and with access to my contacts in my phone, I had the invites sent within a half an hour! Also, the fact that I can just click on the app and see everybody that’s RSVPed or people that change their RSVP, is amazing!!! I’m hoping to see that they have digital thank you cards as well! Fantastic app that u can cancel anytime if you don’t use the service as often as you thought.

Superb. I just bought this app several days ago and have been highly pleased with it. It was easy for me to use (I am 64 years, so I struggle sometimes with technology), but this was super easy to follow. I love getting the notices and messages from the people who rsvp to the invite. I had help with writing the description (for details), and it would be nice to have a template-type of format (for different events if you don’t have that assistance). Anyway, well done Punchbowl staff!

Great so far. This has been quite useful to use! Made one for my daughters 1st birthday and it’s been easy so far. My only gripes… 1. If you’re not a member, you can only make modifications via the mobile app. As most people would utilize this feature, I wish I was able to use the web version when I’m also toggling between other things while planning an event. 2. With most free trials, when you cancel before the charge date, it usually lets you continue to use the trial, then in case you want to reinstate membership, you can. Perhaps this is not something they’re able to do, but I wish that were the case. I did that because I only wish they do a monthly charge instead of a yearly charge. But I completely understand the nature of the business and your decision to do it whichever way you see fit. 3. To the developers: Did you know, when isn’t he mobile app, when I do the preview and I select “Guest List,” it doesn't allow me to go back? So I have to close the app and preview it again. I thought I’d just use it for my daughters birthday, but Thanksgiving is on the way and I remembered it had a Pot Luck feature! So I’m gonna give that a try. WHO KNOWS! I might pay for a year. But for now, I probably won’t simply because I wish there was a monthly subscription instead of a yearly one.

False advertising - so spammy. I was sooo excited to try this out - I wanted to create some cute invites for my daughter and son’s birthdays. But it completely backfired and I feel victim to false advertising. I mean, the picture in their store listing shows a cute card in a text message, right?! But no - not even close. It looks like a crazy spammy link, no picture or card, and none of our friends even wanted to touch it because it looked so shady. I kept having to bug everyone to see if they got it and they all wanted me to change to something else because they thought it looked so sketchy and lame. My daughter was super sad because I showed her the ad and told her that was how it would look but it looked nothing like that. Even more than that, the whole point in me trying to use a text and email app was to be able to send guests other updates and reminders in the same place I sent the original invite - makes sense, right? But the app doesn’t even work like that. It just sends a shady looking spammy link to people from a weird phone number, you can’t see the invite at all, can’t rsvp unless you make them use the app, and you can’t communicate with them by text. So I may as well have just made a cute picture on WordSwag or something and sent it by text to my friends! So irritated, I’m a busy mom with 3 kids and a job and I don’t have time for this mess.

My Go-To Every Time!!. I have been using punchbowl for a few years now and I love it! Especially during quarantine this idea of “e-vites” and “e-cards” is perfect. I’ve used this to send cards and invitations. It’s very easy to use and there’s a lot of options. They also have very good customer service. I had an issue with my membership and they replied with a fix within the hour!! Overall, Punchbowl is a great app and company and I will always go to them for my cards and invites.

Needs a “sign in and save invite” in to-do list.. I LOVE using this to send invites for events and I LOVE the potluck option. My only issue is that when I receive invites via text from other people for an event there is only a “create free account to save your invitation” option in the To-do list. Because I already use this app I just need to sign in and save the invitation. When I hit the create account to save invite option there is still no sign in option, only a sign up option which then tells me the email is already in use (obviously). So my advice to the developers would be to please make it easier to save the invite when you receive it via text. That is why I am giving it 4 stars.

Party On. Love this service!!!! So very easy to use & I know because I've used it so many times. Currently I'm planning a Talent Show using this. Who has time to hand write invitations, stuff envelopes, & the expense of buying stamps? Then you're swamped with phone messages on your voice mail. All I have to do is it send for free then wait for email responses sent from Punchbowl- YEAH!!!!! I easily added a Potluck Menu so the guest can select which item they want to contribute. I went over the number limit for guest so my invitations were not sent. I was devastated after all the time & effort I put into compiling my guest list. I contacted the company & they emailed me a simple solution. YEAH!!! Highly recommend this company.

Used 3 times with errors. Out of the few times I have actually used punch bowl I have literally had about four errors in being able to send the invites two friends with valid numbers. It would send me a message saying invalid phone number or email. I had to contact punch bowl to resolve this. Not a smooth ride for a first time, Second time, third time user. Each time I’ve had a difficulty with the sending. For whatever reason they were able to fix it on their end and make the number a valid number. I was never explained why this error occurs. I can’t imagine I’m the only person. So that is my three star rating. Overall the app is a great idea but I might just go back to Evite the next time around!

Quick, easy to use, great options. Loved it. I’m old school and am used to using a competitor’s platform because it’s what I’ve been using for years (old habits die hard). But I specifically wanted a Hello Kitty background, which the competitor didn’t offer at all. I found MANY Hello Kitty options on Punchbowl, which created a good challenge to have - which should I choose? It was super easy to import contacts and send out. Between the great design options and user friendliness of the app, I will definitely use again!!! 5 stars (plus)!

Great App!. This app is awesome, I didn’t know it existed until I wanted to create an invitation to print and send. But then I realized you can just text it out 😱 so easy! And you can send thank you’s and many other card options. I love how it tells you who’s read it and keeps track of the number of guests, makes planning a party very simple. The amount of Birthday theme cards is unreal. I highly recommend this app. I’ll never mail another invite for a child’s birthday!!!!

Horrible, deceptive, and spammy. This site/app is horribly deceptive. They invite you to set up your event/card and make you go through the whole process including adding your guests which takes a great deal of time. Only when you go to SEND the invites to they trap you into a PAID subscription under the guise of a “free trial” that lasts 7 days. At that point they know you are not likely to turn it down since you already put in the effort. PAID status should be made clear up front. I am reporting them for deceptive practices. Also- the product itself, once they trick you into paying for it, is still loaded with ads and most of your recipients don’t open it because it looks like spam. Not at all the cute card you design. If I could give this zero stars I would. Maybe it used to be good but not now.

Editing tools need tweaking. I’ve used Punchbowl for several years now, like it overall, but not the editing tools. If I change the font or text size of any one line, it’s cumbersome to then get the other lines repositioned so everything is spaced appropriately. It would be great if it was possible to nudge a line up or down to realign all the copy on the invitation. One other request: it would be helpful if I could always see all the information I’m sending out such as the extra information and special instructions, not just what’s on the front of the invitation.

User-friendly but limited. This app makes it easy to select a greeting card and customize the message on the front and the inside. However, I find the free app to be rather limiting. The selection of cards is very limited without upgrading to the paid version. Although there’s a user-friendly interface for writing a custom message in the card, the only editing options are fonts selection, text size, color, alignment and line spacing. And each of these options can only be applied to the entire (front and) inside message, and there are no options to reposition the text, or to add images or other visual elements. The eCard you send will also have ads on it, if you’re using the free version. This app is easy to use. But with the free version, your options are very limited.

Went from “It’s alright” to WOW! *Edited 2 days later*. Right now my invitation shows one date but the text and reminder says the correct date. Can’t get it fixed either. It’s a little hard to navigate through and I didn’t realize that I have drafts that were saved. I have had to redo my invite 4 times before I realized there drafts. 2 days later: I contacted the co. about the issue and they worked on it the very next day, and on a Sunday. Issue was resolved. Still a little difficult to navigate but having to redo it a few times i started to get the hang of things. One thing I don’t like for the people I sent the invites to are all the ads. I have had to tell a few to make sure they click “No Thanks” to navigate through to RSVP. But you get what you pay for...

Convenient. Any busy mom knows that convenience is important! Anything that makes my life easier, I’m all for it! THIS is genius! The invitations are beautiful & it allows for many options & customization. Anymore, even the kids have cellphones or iPads or tablets of some kind & my daughter was able to send her invitations straight to her friends without having to track them down at school or worry about who she missed handing out paper invitations to. I love this app!

Way to connect. For several years I’ve avoided the paper Christmas cards (which get thrown away) and sent a photo with a personal email to the 200+ people on my list. Wow! 85% got back to me and gave me details of their lives. Punchbowl made that even easier and my “card” much classier. Almost every recipient got back to me. (The reply button helped I am sure. ) Now I use it for many occasions to make an easy connection. I recently sent a Valentines card with a video. I say 4 stars instead of 5 because so many of the cards were extra and all of the photo ones were.

Nice invites BUT looks like SPAM. The invites are nice BUT those I sent it to thought it was spam, so none of them wanted to open it. I had to tell them it wasn’t spam and in fact an invite. This to me is a problem because in this day and age with all the new tech spam no one will open an invite. I wish that we could create the invite and save it as a picture to send out to people through text message. I don’t really care if I have electronic RSVP counter. I would rather my guests see the invite and get a simple text back to me. Instead of being afraid to open it. For this reason I will delete it.

Would not do 1 simple thing. I downloaded the app and created a membership after looking online for a site to send ecards. I followed the steps and selected my recipient after customizing. When I hit send I got a pop up that just said “ok”. No other message. I clicked it and my ecard went nowhere. I double and triple checked to make sure I had my recipient’s info and all was in line. Still again, ok. Nothing to indicate what was going wrong. I saw an option to save my ecard as a draft so I did that so I could come back to it after attempting to troubleshoot and find info on what could be happening. I found nothing helpful and to make it even worse, couldn’t even locate the draft so my only option it to recreate the card again... Ugh! I wanted a quick and simple option to send a card today and wasted more time dealing with this. I opted out of them selling my info and will be deleting the app. I will have to just send a birthday text now because I don’t have time for this. Complete waste! The app needs work!

Doesn’t do what it says!. The app would be great IF - I could send invite from my personal number but unlike other Evite apps I can’t In the app’s FAQS section there’s an explanation why this function is not possible but I know of at least 2 other Evite apps that allow you to and option to send from your personal number. If my guests were to receive a text from a random number with a link embedded in it, they would delete it immediately for security reason. The FAQS section of the app states that guests will know the text is from you because it will say “Hosts” name in the text but alas this was not actually the case as my texts did not include any identifying host info. Their Contact Us form in their Help section states they respond in a “few hours”…Ha! It’s been DAYS and I’ve gotten zero response to my inquires.

Cute Cards, Free, Clunky App. I’ve only used the app. Maybe the service is better on a web browser. Creating an invite was easy. Sending it not so much. It imported my contacts but they weren’t imported in an logical way (alphabetically, etc) so it was a pain to add people. I also had an issue removing duplicate recipients. (It would say they’re removed but their names wouldn’t disappear and it would give an error.) There’s also no option to send thank you cards to the guests from an invite. I had to manually add those folks to the card. They weren’t imported as Punchbowl contacts and there was no option to add them as such even though their info was stored with the invite.

Wonderful app. Most of Punchbowl’s app is very user friendly. There are many ways to adapt and make changes to the invitation. It’s better to use on a computer than a phone. I like that editing can be made on the computer and on the phone. The font sizes and styles can be adjusted and so many more features! My suggestion is a timer setting to send out the invitation. I finished setting up the invitation last night around 11 pm, but I wanted it sent in the morning around 7 am. Getting a text message for a child’s party at 11pm is not ideal, and trying to remember to send the invitation during crazy morning rush is difficult. Thank you for the app. It’s so much better than traditional paper cards. ( I usually have to purchase more than I need to make up for mistakes.)

Disappointing. Unfortunately, I sent out the invitations without first trying a test invitation. First, Punchbowl doesn’t provide a “what-to-expect” dry run through of what will happen when a guest receives the invitation. So, after I sent them, I had no idea what to expect or if they actually got sent. Luckily, there is a way to send another invite, although it wasn’t marked clearly. I had to dig. Once I sent it to my daughter, the birthday girl, I discovered that in order to RSVP, each person has to create an account! I never would have used Punchbowl if I had known that! The whole reason that I used Punchbowl was because it can set up multiple emails under each invitee, so that if one parent is out of town then the other parent can respond to the child’s invite. Great. But, then when you look at the invitation list, it counts up how many email address there are instead of the number of invitees! How un-useful. There is no invitation app that is a pleasure to use!

Worst invitation app I’ve ever used. First you going to add your information everything seems like it’s going well do you go to view your invitation and suddenly it’s populated back to Massachusetts which is not what you typed and I had to go back through this app several times it’s impossible to check out as a guest user so you might as well just go ahead and create account and sell your information now. The only reason I’m using this app is because the party venue that I booked with this is how they get the invitations out otherwise I would’ve never downloaded this app and will be deleting it as soon as party is over. Save your time and purchase something for a whole dollar that will give you a better user experience.

Terrible. I NEVER write reviews, but I feel like this one deserves one. I am very disappointed with the service. I got this app to make my sons first birthday invitations. Everything was great, people were rsvp and everything and I loved how easy it is to send. When I initially got the app it says it’s a 7 day free trial but after 7 days do you want to buy the annual pass for 80 or so dollars or just pay 6.99 a month and cancel. So picked the 6.99 a month because I wasn’t going to use it all year just for his birthday. Last night I got a bank notification that I was negative on my account. I got charged for the whole year and I got charged a fee for being negative. When I emailed the company they said they could not refund the money because it was bought off from iTunes when the help center specifically says 30 MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. They will NOT return the money.

This app is really good. I was looking for a way to send invitations other than my usual fossil way. When I found Punchbowl I liked the variety of images ranging from very simple to brightly colored with lots of movement and emotion in them. They also have images that appeal to the whole gamut—from little kids to sophisticated adults. It is very easy to personalize your invitation. I found it very simple to set up the text as well as the guest list. My inexperience resulted in my lapse into the ancient convention of writing each family member’s name on the single invitee line. As a result, most people are responding with a single yes or no. Therefore, I don’t know how many are actually intending to come. Some people are more savvy and they have figured out to respond with +guest, +guest, etc. Maybe a separate field that inquires “How many will be attending?” would help clarify the actual numbers. Right now I’ve just made a simple spreadsheet on my home computer to track it more precisely. I appreciate that I got an email stating that a few invitations were undeliverable. That helped me to get the new invitee information corrected. Overall I am finding it pretty neat. Within an hour of sending out the first round 1/4 of my guest list responded! How cool is that? I’ll know how to proceed better in the future. But so far the experience has been very smooth.

I was really excited about this app. So, I don't really write reviews but I want the company to know that they really need some help with their customer service staff. I had a lot of problems trying to use this app using my iPad. I asked for help twice and both times there were no apologies or offers to find out what was happening, just basically " looks like your information was deleted, take care". That doesn't bode well with me. Was it because I chose the free trial? Maybe they don't need business. Anyway, I used the same iPad with evicted and had zero problems. It's too bad because I invited 100 people and all of them would've been impressed with the results that should've been.

My big toe this app has a 4.9/5 rating. I don’t see how this app has a 4.9 rating. I’m really disappointed in the fact I had to pay for a whole year of this just to invite a handful of people because I met my limit of 50 on the free version. When I downloaded it I thought I could buy one month of upgrade if I needed to invite more people. But no, the upgrade is for a whole year, over $70 with no option for monthly. And it’s not even very user friendly for that dollar amount. I’d rather pay a few dollars to get the app than pay that much for the lowest upgrade.

Easy, fast, personal and mostly free!. Honestly I love this app, I enjoy hosting parties and this genuinely made my life so much easier for an event that I held, you send invites through your contact book, people can RSVP with their plus ones so you can anticipate head counts! I posted announcements throughout the party planning process to keep everyone updated, it was the easiest part about my party essentially. Everyone who had made an rsvp to the party through the app complimented me on the invites and told me it was very easy to navigate. Punchbowl helped me so much in being able to speak to a group of people without putting a bunch of people in a group message that everyone obviously hates, the invite was so easy and cute and really helped me reach out to everyone with all the information necessary in a personal fashion!

Great app that needs a little tweak. I used this app for my daughter’s birthday party invites. I loved the little pie chart visual of responses as well as that you can ask people to indicate infant, child, and adult. Really helpful for quickly figuring out my different types of seating, number of kid/adult favors, kinds food, etc. There’s also a lot of control in the settings, all very nice and useful! the only thing that I don’t like is that I can’t add guests without giving a phone number or email (my grandma who doesn’t use a smart phone or email can’t be included then) AND you’re not able to add people (kids or spouses for example) to someone’s existing invite- in a couple cases people just text me, but I wanted to put it on the PunchBowl app because I was keeping track of all my invites that way- nope! I had to do a work around and send myself an invite to a different email address and add them on that way. Kind of a hassle. Overall though, I do like this app a lot and they have a good selection of cute invites.

Buyer beware!. Designs are nice, but not worth the outrageous prices! I didn’t even find out until I was ready to send my card that I would have to pay for their top-tier membership if I didn't want my card to arrive with an ad plastered across the top! Yet they advertise, “Send free digital cards!” I got roped into a year-long membership, and I’m not even sure how or why. Maybe because I wanted to send a gift card with it? I like the cards themselves. I’m not wild about the lack of flexibility when it comes to editing text. There are lots of fonts, but you can’t mix different sizes on your card; i.e., “Happy Birthday” cannot be made larger than the rest of your text. You can choose a color for the text, but the colors are quite limited, so if the purple they offer doesn’t quite match the card or envelope, you have to make do. It’s what I would expect from a free or low-cost e-card company, but they are not that! I might even be willing to pay per card for the convenience, but an annual membership that is advertised as a monthly fee? Sheisters!

Punchbowl is the app you are looking for!. We are all pretty busy in our lives now a days that we do not have the time to do physical invitations as much as we would want and because of that Punchbowl was invented. You can view cards/invites and send them to anyone on your contact list! There are free ones and ones you can purchase. But even the free ones are great! Use them and you will not disappoint and even then you can see who’s rsvpd to the event when you know no one ever responds to that!

I’ve tried the rest and this IS THE BEST!. I cannot speak highly enough about this app. I’ve done an annual birthday party event and I’ve looked at every single possible invitation app to use for the party. This is hands down the best of its kind. It does everything that the others do if you wrapped them all into one package. It simplifies but uses classy ways to accomplish its goals. It has top notch cards that are good for any and every occasion. Most of all the customer service response time is super fast. If you are on the fence and looking for a direction to go, take my work, Punchbowl is in a class all by itself. You can thank me later!

Punchbowl review. I love the app, invitations are electronic and the presentation is nice to receive. You can also include your child’s photo in the invitation which I thought was really cute. The only thing I do not like is the adds that pop up under the invite once it’s received that can be mistaken as a part of the invitation. There is an options to pay to have those removed but I’d rather not pay for that as I will only need invitations like this once or twice a year but there is that option. Overall it’s a convenient app for quick sending of invitations.

This APP is a Game Changer!!!. I’m one of those people that just can’t deal with a dozen calls from people every time we have a function. With this app, we’ve been able to completely streamline things so we don’t have too! We use Punchbowl for open invites to Family Dinners, monthly Bunco, Country Line Dancing nights and just open fireside nights! People can RSVP, cancel or add at anytime right on the app and space opens immediately to everyone else in real time. Everyone loves that it’s so simple and appreciates the reminder text that comes a few days before an event. Truly a game changer if you’re not hosting because you fear all the work or commitment involved. It’s definitely a must have app for our family for sure!! Can’t say enough good things about it!!

Recipient couldn’t receive it. My first e-card was a disaster. I wanted to send a get well card to a sick friend but it bounced back on his phone number with the message ‘undeliverable email or phone’. I then used his email address and got the same message. I gave up and deleted the app.

Hard to use and expensive. I spent ages setting up an invitation, only to find that I couldn't edit the original information easily. I also lost the entire contact list I had put into the app when I cancelled an event, thinking this wouldn't affect the guest list. Ha! Finally, I discovered the app is NOT free. It sends out invitations that are full of dodgy looking advertisements, and it costs $30/month to remove them. The app is misleading about the cost, so I don't trust it, and I don't trust that I will be able to stop the subscription before the end of the first month. I'm going elsewhere.

So many options. Easy to use. So many invite options. Just love it

Great cards!. I love Punchbowl for sending digital special occasion cards. They never seem to end up in junk, which is great. Plus, you can schedule them and they are FREE!!

A very cool, useful app!. I have used this invitation app. Twice in the last 24 hours. Very easy to use and a wonderful choice of designs!

Nikki SA. Punchbowl makes my task of sending invites easily by allowing me to use my contact list

Amazing app. I have used this app for both of my daughters party invitations. It has never failed to disappoint and is so easy to use. Keeping track of guests and whether they are adults or kids is fantastic. Will use this app time and time again!!!

Fantastic. Very easy to use

Easy to customise and send. Gre

Easy rsvp management, lovely invites. Used it for the first time for my son’s birthday as an event management tool. Very easy to use and track rsvp!

Videos won’t attach. This app was good the first couple of times I sent cards and attached a pre-recorded video. I paid for a membership. It has stopped working now and can’t attach any videos. Very disappointing.

Confused. No matter what we do we can’t seem to receive the invitations as a text message. It’s frustrating and the only fix is to buy a membership to get a link.

Review. Excellent and support adequate

Disappointing. As I was having a large afternoon tea, I sent out 35 invites, but around 1/2 said that they didn’t receive. I had to send numerous times individually before most received, but not all. And yes their email addresses were correct. Very disappointing, considering that amount of money that I paid for it. Wendy

Quick amd Easy. Great features and a really useful virtual card application. Would consider Pro version if there there lower price points as I only send a card or two a year. Maybe a per card option that would open up all the other features??? Otherwise great app. Thanks to the developers and keep up the great work!

Terrible. Doesn’t allow phone numbers from countries other than US - doesn’t have any messages or guidance to warn users of this .. That’s an hour of my time I’m not getting back !

Improvements needed. Overall experience has been ok. The app allows you to track information well and has good record keeping. However it doesn’t allow me to enter phone numbers (although it is suppose to give you this option) and when accessing iphone contacts it doesn’t list the contacts in alphabetical order.

Birthday parade!. Loved how easy this was to use

Easy and beautiful designs. Love this app to create and send beautiful cards

Easy to use !. After trying other apps , this one is my favorite!

Birthday invite. My first time doing an evite Punchbowl was super easy !!!

Really like this card delivery app. This is so handy especially because we live in a rural setting out in the country. It is so nice to not have to drive to town to go get a card or mail one! And it’s so handy for sending thank you or just Hi cards. I’ve used it for birthdays, Xmas, Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day so far!

Perfect!. This is the perfect solution to not using paper invitations but still adding a personal touch. Such convenience with the reminder especially in today’s world with smart phones.

Difficult to edit on an iPad. Also, there isn’t a chance to review the entire card prior to sending when initiated on an iPad as compared to a desktop. This is problematic.

Love Punchbowl!. I use this for every occasion I have but always send birthday cards to friend and family it means a lot to them !

Loved it!. I really loved how easy this was

Great cards but…we should really be able to edit the envelopes!!. 7.5 out of 10

Nice cards, too many ads!. I have a one year subscription, yet I frequently get pop ups asking if I want to avoid ads on my cards. That’s why I got the subscription! It’s VERY irritating!

Not worth the subscription fee. Why do I have to pay to remove ads when I’m already paying a subscription fee? That’s a hidden cost that’s not apparent when you sign up. Not worth the subscription.

Beware. This app follows your every move do NOT download bombarded with emails

Simple and ecology. It's very intuitive

Oops! Something went wrong. This app doesn’t work. It allows you to edit a card but when I tried to send it an error popped up- “Oops! Something went wrong”. Logged out and back in. Restarted the app. Restarted my phone. Nothing worked. I got the same error. Every. Single. Time. Very disappointed!

You changed you customization app. When you changed your app the edit function does no longer work well. Editing the words now makes the test all run together with no spacing. Looks awful!

Easy as pie. I love this app! Even the free choices are great. Use it all the time instead of paper invites. Highly recommend

First Time User. Love how easy it is to send a card! Can’t wait to try sending more especially in the strange times of 2020 with COVID-19 here!

A in Canada. Nice and easy to use and Free

Kids birthday invite. Love this app! Has many great features and you can really personalize it. The only thing I don’t like is that once the invites are sent out the text shows up as sent from a different number rather than looking like it was sent from my own personal number.

Quick & easy. The app itself is very well designed. Invitation options are pretty/cute and easy to edit. Unfortunately the details page often removes line spaces from preview to save, so you have to change that often. Other than that, I love that you can use text or email to send invitations!

Card design. I used to be able to choose stamp

It has ads which is so annoying plus I am not able to upgrade. It has ads which is so annoying plus I am not able to upgrade

Birthday invitation. Easy, fast,fun!

Love this app. Best app ever for events and more

Greeting cards. Easy, friendly user, and great results!!!! Plus it’s very quick to do it Thanks!!!!

Always my go to evite app!. Best party invite app!

An exceptional app!. I absolutely love this app! It is so easy to use, and is a fantastic and convenient way to send cards on the go!

Loves it!. I love their designs, and that there really isn’t much to adding your own touch to it... and sending it out. Easy peezy just how I like it!!!

Amazing for Covid. This is an absolute amazing app for inviting people for party’s online. It’s super user friendly

Beautiful cards. Love the card experience, the envelope and designs and the customization.

Easy. Wonderful and very easy to set up. Grateful!

Looooove this app!. I use this app for my kids birthday parties every year. I have 3 kids, so 3 parties each year and I won’t use any other invitation. Punch Bowl is hands down the BEST one. I tried multiple others before finally using this app and I’ve used it for years. It’s so easy to use and my friends love the invitations.

Love the app. App is much easier to use than website. Great designs.

Subscription. Sucks that you need a subscription to do anything worthwhile!! We’ll see if it’s easy to unsubscribe…

Disappointed cards aren't on app. Downloaded the app so I could quickly send out greeting cards. Disappointed to see the app only supports invitations.

Love Punchbowl. I’ve been using Punchbowl app for years and love it!

Service Crashing. I just tried to use the app and web version of the software. I encountered numerous system errors and I was unable to send out a single card. Pretty much a complete waste of time. One of the worst website/services I have encountered in 2 years. I would give a zero if I could.

Love this app!. I use the free version to make all my invitations and I absolutely love it! So many characters and styles/ occasions to choose from!

So easy to use!. Thanks for this - easy to use and send cards!

Much beter than the alternative. Someone or two told me they use this- i) less nag ii) clear &concise design!

Terrible experience. Hi signed up for this app a couple of weeks ago and love the cards and the designs. They trap you into getting a membership to avoid the insane amount of ads. I signed up immediately in order to have a better and seamless experience however after being charged for the entire year the app still contained the same amount of ads. I also never received a receipt for the payment and contacted customer service twice about each issue individually. No answer! I am an app and subscription junky and have to admit this was the worst I have come across this far. Don’t waste your time and money! Look for alternative apps

Punchbowl ease. I searched for a way to send an e-card via text and Punchbowl came up - easy to use and I will definitely use again! :)

Amazing!. What an awesome app, beautiful designs and extremely user friendly

Love it!. Great app for any type of e-invitations and e-card for any occasions. Love it!

very fun and useful. loved organizing my son’s birthday app via punchbowl . highly recommend

Fun! Fun!. I love using this app. It has a great format. Very easy to use and navigate. Good choice of cards. One suggestion I would have is I don’t see a funny card section. This would be really nice

Such a Handy App. I use this for both my children’s birthdays each year, and other small gatherings. Even the free version is great! You can send from your contacts and monitor who is coming/not, make changes, have chats. Will keep using it, thank you for making bday invites so easy:)

Free cards!. I was sceptical at first but there was a card I could sent for free

Editing. This app has very poor editing function

👉 Are you looking for an Adsense alternative advertising platform?

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Shady app!. I was excited to use this to create an invite for my mother’s surprise party. The invites looked ok when received through text. However, my concern is that now someone I don’t know has my address and phone number. I had someone RSVP that was not even in my invite list originally and they turned off the “message” “delete” and “resend invite” options, they also put their name as “I can dream, can’t I?”.... absolutely absurd that I should now be concerned about the security of my information when the privacy terms clearly state I wouldn’t have to be concerned about my info being compromised. If I could give half a star I would.

Soooo easy to use. I've been using this app for over a year. I paid for no advertising. It was the best thing for me. I didn't want my guests to have to see all the advertising ads. This site is great. I have sent invitations at least 7 times this year. And my guests love it too. It's super easy for them to respond back and the invites you have to choose from are very creative! Theirs nothing SHADY about it!!!!!! If you think that YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING!!!!!

Must Pay for Membership. This used to be a free service but now you have to pay with a credit card or PayPal and at least try the “7 day free trial membership” via a payment. I wasn’t prepared for that, but had spent adequate time creating the invite so I wasn’t going to start over with a free company! Also, I thought I had sent the invite online via my desktop, but when I added the Punchbowl app to my phone and pulled up the invite, it showed it hadn’t been sent! Yikes! Don’t know where I missed that, but be sure to check! Finally, this is always a cute invite the way the virtual card “pops” out of the envelope. Would recommend this company even though it costs a little bit, and worth paying for the ad removal if you’re already paying something!

Baby 1st birthday. I think it’s real cool that I can create an invitation on my phone an use my contact list to send the invite out in seconds. The only problem I have with it, is that some of my contacts couldn’t respond to the invite. Customer service had to send me a separate link to send without the option to personalize it with the persons name. I just feels in personal. Customer was a big help and I love the cute Minnie Mouse invite which goes great with her theme and color scheme.

Easy to use!. Punchbowl has been great since I can use mobile numbers to text my son’s bday invitations. So much easier than getting an email address or using paper invites. It is also easy to add guests to the invitation after it has been sent. The app gives me notifications on my mobile and sends an email to me so I always know who has RSVP’d or not. Great app!

Convenient!. There are several e-vite apps to choose from. This one has been great! There are many themes with multiple choices. It is simple to add guests and I read the Privacy Policy to be sure my guests info remains safe, so far this app has it all covered. I can add messages as guests reply, I can easily check who is coming and who cannot. It’s a great e-vite app!

Made life easy. I was able to make invitations for my mother’s surprise dinner, they were beautiful and I was able to send them quickly. Everyone loves them and it was free. My guest can always check their emails or phones for the invite without worrying about loosing it somewhere in there house. It’s right there at the click of a button.

Great App. I have used the app now for 3 birthday parties and it’s awesome! I love that I can customize a birthday invite and can just text it to people instead of mailing them out. It’s saves a lot of time and money. I also love that it keeps track of how many people are coming and you can customize it to show how many adults and children there will be so I can plan accordingly.

Very glitchy. This app is very glitchy now and you can not edit your invite after it has been been sent out. I mean the option is there, but the feature doesn’t actually work. Or maybe this app needs to be updated to keep up with all the ios14 features and updates.

Seriously Amazing & FREE!!. The invites are adorable but what I love even more is the variety!!! Anything from fonts to colors, Disney characters to unicorns, polka dots too...so many options! I sent one sample invite to my mom (who isn’t the most tech savvy) and she was able to open & RSVP in a matter of minutes! I know some of the options are “premium” but it’s totally not necessary to get cute invites fast!! This. Is. A. Keeper!

Punchbowl’s So Easy. I love my discounted yearly subscription with my Punchbowl cards and invitations adding the many Holidays and Gift card options. At 61 with kids, grand kids, friends and family it has made my life so much easier and less stressful! I highly recommend this cheaper and easier way to send cards and invitations. You will Lovd it! 😊

Great but... This app is really good for birthday planning! The only thing is I’ve been checking on RSVP for my invited guests, but the app freezes and crashes. You can’t click on any tabs or anything, it will eventually kick you out the app. You have to close it, and open it again a couple of times for it to work. Eventually it will happen again, and you would have to repeat that process. Other than that, love the app. Hope for a fix soon.

Misleading. I was forced to sign up for a subscription because I wanted to recreate the same invitation that I used last year for my son’s birthday party. I was disappointed to find out that I still have advertising in my invites after paying $2.99 per month. They should offer a per invitation option for people who do not throw many parties that do not include advertisements. I would have gladly paid $20 for that option.

Useful - but the spam is annoying. This app is very useful to mark attendance for our adult hockey team. However, each and every time I open the app they try to sell me the paid version, which I will never need. I want to RSVP as quickly as possible, and this advert needs an option to “not show this message again.” Even seconds wasted add up - and this is repetitive.

Disappointed loyal customer. I’ve been using punch bowl for years for invites, this year they are charging a fee. I subscribed, and sent out my invites for my sons birthday. I wanted to add a few more guests and the app said that my guest limit was too high (but it was not originally when i sent out invites?) and I needed to upgrade the membership. So I deleted some of the guests off my invite list in order to add 2 more, and despite this I still need to upgrade in order to invite guests so now am being forced to upgrade for once yearly invites. Disappointed…

Punchbowl makes it easy!. I love sending my friends and family Punchbowl cards as much as they enjoy receiving them. Punchbowl makes easy to do, it’s affordable, and the selections are as good as another well know store front shop, whose own line of cards are ridiculously outrageous in cost. Try them out. You wont be disappointed.

Constant Upsell, ads were added to my invite and the invite was never sent.. The idea is excellent, however the execution I found to be quite poor for the following reasons. Too many ‘upsells’ and broken application. 1. They add advertising to your content unless you pay more. Even with a paid subscription you have to pay more to remove the ads. 2. No warning is provided to the user if you exceed your guest quota. The app will not warn you. It just does not send your invitation, but it displays that the invites were sent. So you think everything worked. That’s a software bug. 3. Customer support says they will submit the feedback but cannot promise anything. The idea is good, but execution poor. It left me with no confidence in my invites being sent. especially after they confirmed my invites were not sent and it was a bug in the system.

Best digital invites ever!!. Okay this was a simple app. I could decorate and change the font how I wanted. Now there is a membership here but the regular stuff is good as well!! The animation is smooth for when the invites are being sent. I think this is a great app without spending a lot of money on invites which can be expensive! I would recommend this to everyone!

Birthday Invitations. It was so easy to sign up through the app when I downloaded it to my phone. I picked whatever invitation I wanted for my daughter, well she chose which one she wanted & I just added my contacts from my phone & sent out the invites via text. It was much easier. I will use this from now on to send my invitation out for whatever event I have

What a great app!. I originally bought this app for my retirement party. I use it several times a week sending all types of cards! Love it! My only wish was that some options that are available on the website were available on the app specifically changing the stamp on the envelope and lining of the envelope. It’s still awesome though!!

My go-to for invites!. It is so much more cost efficient to send e-vites! Also, the quality of each invite is amazing and beautiful. Thanks for taking one less thing to worry about off of my to do list by making inviting friends and family to my big event so simple, fast and easy! Highly recommend!

Evite’s for my 30th Birthday!. I just created these cute evites for my 30th birthday all from my phone for free on punchbowl! What I enjoyed the most were being able to choose from all the options of fonts, colors and styles. It was easy, fun and quick and did I forget to mention FREE!!! I would toltally recommend this to everyone! Welcome to the digital era where everything is live and electronic! No more postage fees! YES!

Great Cards nightmare managing recipients. There has to be an easier way for Punchbowl to let people know who has received and viewed a card. It’s should be simple table with a button to resend. Their system went down yesterday and I am still trying to find out who opened the cards. Too many clicks. The data should be in the dashboard.

So Easy To Use!. Honestly, I hate doing party invitations! I mean, I like getting them and I love how pretty they are, but I do not enjoy everything else that goes with sending out invitations. But this app honestly makes it so easy! No asking people for their addresses, no postage, etc. As long as you have their cell (or email if you want), you can send them a pretty invite! I love it and highly recommend!

Great Ap but could be better. I love the design & most functionality but it bugs me you can’t just view your invite without sending it to yourself. Also it would be really nice if you could address the invite to a specific guest - like when using for a kids party you could address it to the specific child so adults know it’s not intended for all siblings to come. You can kinda get around this using the share link but it’s not as simple. But the designs are great and it’s a pretty sleek ap so I’m pleased!

Erased my invite 2 times. Pay the annual fee and still the system requested I pay even more if I want to avoid ads. Erased my invite twice and had to re-enter all of my guests all over again several times. After sending out invites and adding more guess the additional guest didn’t get invites despite me trying to send several times. For simple invitations this may be very good. Very challenging to edit and customize beyond what’s provided

Awful experience. This app was recommended by a friend. I have to say I am utterly disgusted with this app. Here I thought I was sending regular invitations for my 6 year old bday party only to find out al my guest received the invitation plus some form of an EROTIC ad following it!!! I have had 2 guest text me saying that they now have been receiving random text messages from odd numbers regarding these ads. These guest now believe their information (phone #) was spread around and they might get some form of viruses. I can’t even reassure them they won’t. I am completely embarrassed. Never will I use this app ever again.

Fantastic!. I needed something quick and easy to use, not just for me to create, BUT also for the”guests” invited! I got this solely to use for my 10 year class reunion, and this app is absolutely amazing! I’ve never had a more user friendly app, even when planning my wedding! I wish I’d known about this amazing app! Thank you for this! You’ve made my life so much easier for any/all events from this day forward!

Needs met. I love this online invitation app. I am able to complete my invites and my kids’ invitations with ease. I love how easy it is to email, text, and include links for guests. Not to mention managing the RSVPs is so simple. The site breaks it down by age group and overall yes, no, and undecided responses, which makes it so easy to plan food and goody bags. I don’t know how people planned parties before Punchbowl came along. Genius idea!

Awesome App. With my today’s technology this app is a perfect money and tree saver. You can manage everything from here. The guest list, the age group, send reminders, and everything you can think of!! It also has the option to send via email. Also for your people who say I didn’t get it, you can see who saw it and who didn’t. This is perfect!

Great idea/concept- small fixes to make. This is n awesome app! Some small issues I have are that if I go back to edit parts of the invite, it’s doesn’t save the info u put in, so u have to re-enter the party info AGAIN. You can’t save where you are in the creation process. I’ve only made the invite and sent it to hubby to test it. He got it instantly and RSVP’s.... he didn’t download app and had no problems! Yay! Enjoy this service/app!:)

Absolutely Amazing. I use it primarily for invitations and I absolutely love it! It makes sending out birthday invitations a breeze. I let my boys choose their own characters and there are just so many choices it almost impossible for you not to find something that you love! I will continue using this app for ALL of my event needs!

Would be nice to be able to edit more. I’ve noticed that once someone RSVPs you can only edit their response. Meaning if you know they’re bringing someone you can’t add somebody for them. If they’ve only RSVPed for one you can’t add another person to their name after, only the attendee can do that. Another thing is the image on the invitation is very pixelated. It doesn’t look very nice once it’s been sent to people.

Do Not Use. I sent out invitations to a lot people, and all it sent was a shady looking link to see the actual invitation. People were afraid to click it, and I had to later clarify that I sent the link. Later that day, I get a message from an unknown number telling me to click the link it had with it. ( I didn’t press it, never press unknown links.) I blocked the number and deleted the message. The next day, I see I’ve gotten another spam message on on a different messaging app. Do not use this app. Now I’m worried my contacts have received spam also. Do not download this app.

Amazing!. I’ve spent years paying a lot of money for invitations and this app makes it so much easier! They have a lot of designs (that are cute) for many different occasions. I’ve used it for my daughter’s 9th birthday party and also for my rehearsal dinner for my wedding. It’s free and the guests can respond right then and there- it keeps track of your responses for you as well! I am so happy I found Punchbowl!!

Great app except...... This is an easy app to use, glad I found it to help plan my son’s birthday party given my busy schedule. I would totally give the app a 5 but what’s holding me back from doing that is the fact that when I forward the invite to other people I have to put in an email address instead of a cell phone number. I don’t really know a lot of people’s email address🤔. But other than that the app is great.

Notifications and attendance do not match. I have used this app every year for our annual Xmas party. Yes, some people will think it’s a spam text which is unfortunate but expected. However, my phone notifications tell me I’m at a certain number of RSVP’d guests (let’s say 20), but the app is lagging behind at 16 ppl. I have refreshed and closed out of the app multiple times, but nothing works. Yet it sends the correct amount of RSVPs to my email? Kind of annoying, but overall have enjoyed it over the years.

Liking it so far. I like the card designs, but would like more and maybe even a little animation or have the ability to add a video. When I click edit card, I wish the keyboard would not pop up immediately until I tap to write in the text box. Aside from that I have not had any problems and will be looking to use this in the future.

Cute, but needs more detailed features. I like the cards, I’ve used Punchbowl for years. But the invitation function could be a lot better. I don’t like having to scroll through all of my contacts to find the ones I want to add, and I really don’t like that more details can’t be added to the invitation itself. I’ve noticed people haven’t read through all of the details to find my notes. I also really wish an image went with the text, or I could send the text directly from my number.

Great for Surprise Party Planning!. It was easy to download, choose an invitation, and send them to the people in our contacts. Since I’m planning a surprise party for my husband it is really nice to have a not-so-obvious way for invitees to respond without blowing up my phone and making it look suspicious. So far I have no complaints and am really glad I found this app! -Karisse

Ads Block Invitation Text. While I understand that ads appear on the free version of e-invitations, I find it completely unacceptable that the ads on Punchbowl completely block my invitation copy!! Guests have to physically turn their phones to a horizontal position to view the message on my invitation. This forced me into paying for a membership. I am not at all pleased.

Great for 21 century tech savvy invitations. I have used Punchbowl for my baby shower and now a news years party and it’s super easy to use for any event. The customization allows me to make any design personal. It is also easy to use to send to huge lists of contacts straight to their cel phones through text. Which people respond to quicker than email. It’s an all around great app!

Ok app but room for improvement. Not as intuitive as you would think it should be. How can I simply edit a guest phone number? How can I simply invite just one additional guest without it sending to random other guest? There is probably a way to do these things but it’s not very obvious. Also, before it sends to all guest again it would be nice if it asked “are you sure you want to re-send invites to guest who have already responded?” These are simple improvements that can be made. Overall the app serves its purpose.

Perfect!. I have been using this app for several months now and wether I am hosting a neighbor block party, our book club or my children’s bday parties this is the PERFECT way to invite and communicate with guests as well as engage through participation of potlucks and polls! Thank you for creating this efficient yet personal tool for us busy individuals who need both flexibility and organizational support! A+++

Good could be better. I like Punchbowl. I’ve been using it for the past 6 events I’ve organized. But there are a couple of things that could make the app better. It would be nice to be able to quickly see the “Invitation Viewed” date from the app like you can from the online view. Also, when editing the RSVP status on behalf of a guest, there is no way to add their “plus ones” from the app. This is something that you also have to do from the online view. It would be helpful to be able to add a cell phone or email address to a “plus one” so they can also keep up to date with the announcements and get the reminders. Lastly, I feel like the dashboard should be the initial tab when you open the app. Checking up on current invitations is a much more common reason to open the app compared to creating new invites.

Love potluck option!. We do a bbq every summer and this is the 3rd year we sent invites via text. I love that it gives a pot luck option so I can plan out the menu with little effort. I can go in and personalize it or the app give the guest the ability to fill in what they’d like. I love that I don’t have to send out an additional meal assignment. Made this years planning so smooth.

Anonymous. Wish this app would allow you to create or draw to create, you own customize invitation. I tried searching for one that I would like but couldn’t find it. Plus if u pay for subscription it still doesn’t work or have the way you want it to. But overall, I love that it’s very easy and convenient for me to have an electronic use of invites.

Love it | Live it. I’ve been using Punchbowl since 2015 & love it! From birth cards with gift cards inside to organizing events with over 400 guest it has been very easy to use and convenient to keep track of things. I even used it for potluck party as well and polling guest. Love that follow up thank you notes can be scheduled too and messaging guest etc....love the service and the mobile app does not disappoint!

Lovely graphics on invites. Took a bit of time to understand editing functions but the app allows you to size the text and add additional text boxes ( although your font size will be very small). You must set up account before you can save any invites. Do this then “save” your edited invite before signing out. As well, setting up guest lists must be done in a signed-in account mode. Overall, very pleased.

Great invitations. I have sent out invitations to at least 10 parties or events, it took me awhile to get them just right but I have been very happy with how they turned out. I paid extra to get rid of the ads that show up on the page with the invitations. If you’re going to send out a number if invitations then it might be something to consider.
