Punch Bowl Extraordinaire
February 12, 2020

Being a person that is not technically sophisticated and primarily dependent on events planners to handle details of this nature it was great to have the Punch
Bowl Experience. I was nervous but Punch Bowl made the process so user friendly and so non-intimidating! I really enjoyed my growth experience and independence in this new world of self sufficiency! Thank you Punch Bowl!

Easy is always good
February 4, 2020

In order to offload my requests for help, to format and send on-line invitations, my son set me up on Punchbowl. I'm old, computers are impossible, and my kids are sick of my pleas for assistance. Punchbowl was easy to use, even for me. That's the first thing I loved. The second was that, for the above list of reasons, I missed the 'cancel by' deadline by a few hours. The instant I sent Punchbowl a request for a refund, they responded. These people could give a master class in customer service. Thank you.

Planning gatherings!
March 18, 2020

I always set up birthday invitations through Punchbowl. Super easy and cute. I don't longer need to buy cards at the store or call people on the phone. With a quick click, I can send reminders or insist for RSVPs! Love it.

Punchbowl Invitations
September 24, 2020

I love this app & the many complimentary options to choose from for invitations. It's an easy to use app with many nice features such as reminders for guests that RSVP'd "yes" and being able to text/message your guests individually. Maybe the next feature will be to group message everyone but none-the-less, the app has been wonderful. I've used it twice in the past 60 days for a 30th Birthday Party & a Baby Shower for 30 guests & love it! I was able to manage my RSVP's immediately. They offer adorable invitation theme choices! Thank you punchbowl!

We LOVE Punchbowl!
December 12, 2019

We have now used Punchbowl for 4 birthday parties and we will never use any other app or program! It's easy to manage and keep track of everything which is great for a busy family like ours. We love being able to upload our own designs for invites, but they have an amazing library to choose from too! Can't recommend Punchbowl enough!

The variety of invitation designs offered on Punchbowl is really good and there are lots of free ones! The designs are very creative and the site is easy to use. You can keep track of your guest list and review the info at any time. It is a great, user- friendly site. We have used them for 2 years now and will use them again!

Unicorn Invitation is Adorable
January 30, 2020

My daughter had her first party at Chucky Cheese. Thank God for these invitations. I picked unicorn to go with the party theme. My daughter loved them. Took me 10 minutes to create and send them. Everyone RSVP'ed. They were so easy. Love it! Thanks, Punchbowl.

Birthday Fun
October 26, 2019

Our son had his 10th birthday party at D&B. Adults and kids all had a blast playing games, eating food, and being together! The staff was friendly, helpful, and ready to serve! We were able to communicate through email every step of the way so all questions and concerns were answered. It was an easy process that everyone enjoyed. Than you for a great day!

Punchbowl is my party helper
December 11, 2019

I've used Punchbowl for years now. If I need to create invites, they are my go-to. It has more designs than I would ever need, an easy to understand design process, my party head count as well as who has actually opened the invite and read it, plus a sign up for potluck event. It's so great!

I've been using Punchbowl since 2015 for my invitations and ecards. I love the convenience of being able to manage events from my phone on the go and never missing a birthday/special event/or simply thank you/sympathy or just because moment via ecards (with giftcards included!). I think my annual subscription is well worth the money! Thank you!

The annual cost for the lowest level membership is $35.88. This level allows only 10 cards per month. (No problem though, the card selection is so poor it would be impossible to find 10 cards to send) After a considerable amount of time finding an acceptable card, the decent customization options offer a bit of hope. Unfortunately, hope is short-lived. The card is finally finished and ready to be scheduled for sending at a later date. But wait, scheduling is only available if the membership is upgraded to the next level. Add another $12. Bottom line, punchbowl.com is a dreadful experience. DO NOT waste money by joining. There are other ecard sites that are far superior at a lower price. Also, be cautious of the signup process. It is extremely misleading!

Talk about PACKING A PUNCH!
December 20, 2019

Ever since I came across a site for all types of cards, called PUNCHBOWL, I have been so delighted with the variety and numerous options I can't tell you! Who gives us free anything these days? Whomever is operating this site deserves a medal. The site is easy to navigate, a lot of the cards are free and the choices are tremendous for every occasion and holiday. I have used this site for over 2 years now and never, ever been disappointed. It just gets better and better. Thank you.

Terrible Two's & Play doh
January 29, 2020

When I first planned my daughters' party I was considering doing her invitation through etsy.com, but it was extremely difficult to navigate. I started planing with Chuck E. Cheese and once I did my deposit I was offered free birthday e-vites from Punchbowl. I was able to find the theme she liked, caption the way I want it and more all for no extra charge at all. They also put everyone in a group so it's easy to view who can and can not attend. Very easy to navigate as well.

Love Punchbowl!
December 19, 2019

I have been using Punchbowl for many years, for many parties. It's a great service allowing you to easily create your invitation, event list of invitees and keep track of those attending, on the fence, or, cannot attend. It is extremely easy to create beautiful invitations, announcements, holiday cards etc, I highly recommend that you give it a try!

Great FREE Service
February 29, 2020

I've now used this service a couple of times for invitations and find it very user friendly and I like that I can make the invitation my own style. I can add my own pictures, background colours, etc. and it keeps track of who's replied yes or no! I don't have to do a thing.

Punchbowl customer service is exceptional. I took strong issue with the "small print" policy of charging a full year membership that can cancel anytime - bc you don't get your prorated money back! HOWEVER, customer service responded quickly to correct the issue. Punchbowl has terrific products so I am happy they resolved the matter so I can keep using the site without worrying about hidden fees.

A couple things I want to mention: We have a 30-day money back guarantee on all our memberships, so it's always possible to get a refund, and we also offer monthly memberships if you prefer to pay month-to-month and cancel after just one month. Please don't hesitate to email us at help@punchbowl.com if you have questions! - Sarah in Marketing
