Where Evite is the better pick

  • A big list for nothing. A free Evite takes up to 750 guests if you accept advertising on it; a free SimpleInvite event stops at 30.
  • A design for every occasion. Evite's catalogue is far larger than ours.
  • Texts today. Evite sends invites and reminders by text now; ours are not live yet.
  • Large events. Evite Pro takes 2,500 guests on an invite; we stop at 150 unless you write to us first.

Where SimpleInvite fits better

  • No advertising in front of your guests, on any event, free or paid.
  • A price you know before you start. Most events are free, the rest are $5, and nothing is charged before you send.
  • A year for $39 instead of $249.99, if you host often and your events stay under 150.
  • A year that ends when it says. It doesn't renew on its own, and we email you 14 days before.
