We'd rather you pick the right tool than a refund-worthy mistake. Evite is a better fit if:
For events up to 10 guests, InviteBeam is free with no ads — Evite is free with ads. For larger events, InviteBeam is a flat $5 one-time fee per event. Evite charges via Pro subscription tiers, so cost depends on how many events you send per year and which plan you pick.
No. InviteBeam never places third-party ads inside invitations on any tier. Free-tier emails include a small "Powered by InviteBeam" footer that is removed on the $5 paid tier.
Yes. You can paste a list of "Name, Email" pairs or upload a CSV exported from any platform, including Evite.
InviteBeam offers a curated set of themes plus unlimited custom-image uploads on every tier. Evite has a larger overall library, but many of its best designs require a paid Pro plan.
