Fantastic party planning app
January 21, 2020

This app was great. It allowed me to invite as many people as I needed, kept me up to date with who RSVPd, and was easy to use. Definitely recommended over any other invite apps out there!

I've used Punchbowl's website for a few years & have been pleased with their variety. I also like the fact that this is an earth-friendly option instead of using paper cards.

This app is really user friendly and straight forward. Perfect to keep track of your guests. Just wish there were more card variety for the free version, but still it's very good.

Not FREE but still GREAT!
November 13, 2019

At first, I was annoyed that what was proposed as "free" turned out to be a paid membership, HOWEVER considering the minimal annual cost it is WELL WORTH IT!

I have used many other card/invitation services (free or otherwise) and none compare to Punchbowl. They have full customization, options for unlimited free cards, reminders of special dates, a great attendee list with appropriate reminders. You can pay a nominal fee to have your own photos uploaded.

Functionally it is very easy to use and the amount of detail in terms of following who views the card/invite, how they RSVP, attendee list and how they help you maximize the response is amazing! Eventbrite does not even compare!

When I have had questions Customer Service has replied within 24 hrs and answered my questions. They were efficient, friendly and professional. It does not feel like a random website... there are real people there to help you.

In my first month, I sent out a business meeting invite, a "Thanks" to my great bosses and an invite to a personal social gathering; all of them worked wonderfully. I'm looking forward to sending Christmas cards and a Christmas event invite.

Let's face it, no one does snail-mail anymore. Email is the way we want to receive things.

When you consider what you might pay for nice cards plus postage this site really is a good deal. The cards/invites are fun, interactive, customizable and memorable.

I highly recommend and look forward to using Punchbowl for years to come.

Best online invites
September 15, 2019

This is the best site for online invites I've found. Great design selection, easy to use. My wife loves the potluck list option for organizing BBQs and our annual Friendsgiving dinner.

Always a great experience
December 6, 2019

Sent out Holiday invites, it is easy to navigate. I like that the you get RSVP's sent to your email and do not have to check the guest list all the time.

I have sent a couple e-cards and included a convenient gift card. Unfortunately, i have never shopped or used Amazon, but there was nothing to say that you can only purchase out of the US. That said, the shipping, duty, taxes and exchange made it a total bust... punchbowl originally told my friend that she could request the card 'stud value could be reimbursedone and changed to CDN funds. When I followed up with them they said that she had redeemed it so they couldn't do anything. She never did make the purchase. They stink.

IF ANYONE WANTS TO DO ONLINE GIFT GIVING OR SHOPPING- Use SHOP. CA, They are ABSOLUTELY GREAT. I have learned my lesson the hard way. I will make sure i spread the word... Punchbowl may be convenient and their cards might be customizable, but the rest is a big fail.

Punchbowl is an authorized reseller of Gift Cards for Amazon.com. It sounds like our customer support team tried their best to help, but it is true that Amazon gift cards are not refundable. This is due to an Amazon policy, not ours. Once a gift card has been redeemed, we're unable to reimburse it in any way. We note that these gift cards are not redeemable on Amazon.ca here: https://help.punchbowl.com/article/296-amazon-gift-card-redemption-information but we agree that this should be more clear during checkout. We will be sure to pass along that feedback.

Communion Card
August 25, 2020

We were able to customize the card using the Punchbowl app which is nice and friendly, we could manage the guest list and ensure they were sent reminders prior to the event

Would definitely recommend using the Punchbowl app for Birthday, Events to help track and keep guest list handy especially if one has to track all the guests during COVID
