I have used Punchbowl for five years now and love it.
Its great for holding previous invite so that makes it easy to update and send out again.
Then the reminder part useful.
This web page was not clear on their charges after their free trial. Charged us for the whole year. Giving it my lowest score. Do not recommend.
I am pretty new to using Punchbowl, but it was a great help to be able to manage the invitations electronically and the guest list. It was also helpful to be able to send a message to my guests through Punchbowl and prompts for RSVPs
Turning 65 in quarantine was challenging but Punchbowl made it easy to gather a group of friends for a drive by celebration. They even had a card with "65" on it. Perfect!
We've used Punchbowl on all our smaller events and have been VERY PLEASED at how user friendly it is both on our side and our guest's side. It really helps us with sending out last minute details, reminding those who haven't RSVP'd and having a check-in report for the day of the event. Try it - You'll love it.
I found punchbowl through Urban Air and used not knowing if this was the best method. To my surprise
It was easy, convenient and saves me a lot of time. I will definitely use punchbowl again.
Let me just say, I am NOT all that tech savvy. Punchbowl makes it easy and Very effective for those like me. I will be recommending to family and friends for sure. Thank you so much!
I used Punchbowl to do invites for a baby shower/gender reveal party. It was very easy to create, send and remind people through the app. Would use it again for sure!
I'm very satisfied with how easy it is to make and send invites as well as thank you cards. My events were perfect due to the details available via the app.
I picked out an invite for texting. Filled it out and sent it out selecting the contacts on my phone. SO EASY! People responded quickly too! Will definitely use again :)
Absolutely love using Punchbowl! It was very easy to navigate and loved the self customization features. My guests were please with the combination. It allowed me to send updates. Just awesome!

Much for creating this platform for the public. Agape' Love.
Everything was perfect, download the app and you get cool invitations for free! Its as easy as that. Love it I use it every year for my daughters birthday party. Our friends us it also.
So easy to set up invites and a variety to choose from. It was great to send lil reminders and quick messages about the party all with one push of a button. Thank you for making it user friendly.
I used this site to send party invites... I didn't have everyone's email addresses, but did have everyone's phone numbers, so they give you the option to send the invite by text. Alot of people get spam texts, so they send the text to the person with the message " (HOST NAME)" Invited you to "(event)" on "(date)" with the link, so that the invites don't just ignore it, which I loved!
This company has fraudulently charged 100's of dollars on one of my accounts. Not sure how they accomplished this. Beware and tell everyone you know about this rip off agency
Hello! We'd like to clarify that at no point would we ever fraudulently charge a customer. Punchbowl is a free platform. We only charge customers if they actively sign up for a membership in order to access exclusive features. We make our membership options very clear when you enter your credit card information.
I always use punch bowl fir my special events, it's so easy to customize your own invitations and also after the event I always use there thank you cards :)
First time user. Made an invite for a virtual party. Easy to send to my guests and to keep up with the replies. The selection of cards available are beautiful.
I have ordered invites on 2 separate occasions and everything with smoothly. Everyone got there invites and they look very professional. I will always use punchbowl for all my events
I am grateful for the website. It has been nice to be able to send cards virtually to friends and family since we are in quarantine, to offer them encouragement and let them know that I am thinking about them. It has touched the heart of a lot of my friends who I have sent them to via phone. Compared to their competitors Punchbowl's card and invitation options are better and look professional. Though after a limited time of sending a free card you have to sign up and pay. The amount for the basic account is 2.99/mo which is lower than a hallmark card from a store. Yes you can go to stores an purchase cheaper cards for less than $2.99 but you can't personalize them and that purchase would be for only 1 card. This $2.99/mo lets you send several cards every month for that price and because the monthly price is so low, I understand why they still have advertisements. Which is okay for me because I focus on the card anyway and they do have an option for a monthly membership where you can avoid the ads if it bothers you. It cost money to maintain a website so I am okay with the ads. I also like their customer service, they responded via email immediately and handled my inquire expeditiously. Thank you Punchbowl.

Answer: Hi Kimberly - Can you tell us a little more about what you're trying to do? Are you trying to send an invitation? When you build a guest list and enter the individual recipient email addresses, they will not be able to see each other's contact information. They will be able to see who is invited (name only), but we give you the option to hide your guest list: https://help.punchbowl.com/article/98-how-do-i-show-or-hide-the-guest-list If you're sending to a group email address (a distribution list that goes to many people), this article will help: https://help.punchbowl.com/article/325-can-i-send-my-invitation-to-a-group-email-address If you're trying to do something else, please give us some more detail here or feel free to email us at help@punchbowl.com and we'd be happy to help!

Answer: Absolutely. They ask if you want to send yourself a Test card so you can see exactly what your invited guests will see. You can then make modifications if you choose. It's good to do this because the format that you input is slightly different than what they will see.
