Where they actually differ
Both give you no per-recipient charge, tracking who has replied, sending by email and a full event website, so those are not the thing to decide on.
- Free to send. RSVPify supports sending invitations without paying; Appy Couple does not.
- Unlimited guests. Appy Couple supports an uncapped guest list; RSVPify does not.
- Guest account required. RSVPify does not do this. Appy Couple does not publish whether it does, so it is worth checking before you send.
When Appy Couple is the better choice
Couples with multiple wedding events who want a designed guest app plus website for one predictable annual fee.
- Single flat price covers website, native guest app and digital invitations
- Unlimited storage for guest list entries, RSVPs, messages and photos
- Hundreds of boutique designs that coordinate across app, website and stationery
- Design can be changed at any time after publishing
- Monthly option at $12 avoids a large upfront commitment
Where it costs you:
- No free tier; publishing requires a paid subscription
- Custom domains cost extra, most around $19.99 per year
- Coordinating printed invitations and monograms are sold separately
- Guest app model asks guests to install or open an app experience
- Feature-level detail such as RSVP question customisation is not documented on the pricing page
When RSVPify is the better choice
Organizers who need serious RSVP and registration mechanics, guest-list management and check-in more than they need invitation design.
- Genuinely free for small events up to 100 invitees with RSVP tracking
- Strong guest-list tooling: seating charts, capacity limits, guest tagging, QR check-in
- Handles ticketing and paid registration alongside plain RSVPs
- Event pages, save-the-dates and password protection included on paid personal plans
Where it costs you:
- Guest limits are tied to plan tier: 100 free, 300 Gold, 500 Platinum
- No animated invitation envelope or cinematic invitation design
- Ticket sales carry a per-ticket fee of 1.95% plus $0.90
- Premium features such as seating charts and extra languages require paid tiers
What each one costs, in dollars
Neither Appy Couple nor RSVPify bills by guest count, which puts them among the 26 platforms in this dataset that do not.
Published prices, converted into what you would actually pay for a real guest list. Credits, coins and per-card pricing are translated into dollars because that is the number you are deciding with.
| Appy Couple | RSVPify | Dawat | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Subscription | Free tier, paid upgrades | Free |
| 100 guests | $99 (annual plan) | Free | Free |
| 250 guests | $99 (annual plan) | $10/month or $72/year (Gold) | Free |
| How that is worked out | Pricing is a flat subscription with unlimited guest list entries and RSVPs, so cost does not change with guest count. | The free plan covers 100 guests; 250 guests needs Gold, which is $10 monthly or $72 for a year and allows up to 300, per RSVPify's personal-events pricing page. | Dawat has no per-guest or per-send charge, so the guest count does not change the price. |
As of September 2026: One package covering website, guest app and digital invites at $99 per year or $12 per month, cancellable any time; custom domains cost extra, most about $19.99 per year. Free for up to 100 guests per event; Gold is $10/month or $72/year for up to 300 guests, and Platinum is $15/month or $108/year for up to 500 guests. Business plans start at $39/month.
The third option: something that feels like an invitation
Neither Appy Couple nor RSVPify is trying to make the moment of opening feel like anything. They collect the answer. For a birthday drinks thread that is exactly right; for a wedding, a nikkah or a milestone, the invitation is part of the event.
Dawat tracks replies the same way both of these do, and costs nothing to do it. All 53 card designs, unlimited guests and unlimited sends are free, with no card required. What the other two do not do is address each guest personally: the envelope opens with that guest's name on it and their reply is one tap.
The practical difference shows up the week before the event. Instead of counting replies across a group chat, you open one page and see who was sent it, who opened it, and who answered.
The honest caveats: Dawat is digital only, so it will not print and mail stationery, and it does not sell tickets. The optional Dawat Signature experiences are $89 once per event, and they are labelled as paid before you publish — nothing else is.
