Sending invitations

WhatsApp and SMS from your phone, or email sent by our team.

WhatsApp and SMS, from your phone

Open WhatsApp & SMS on your event page. Next to each guest, tap WhatsApp or SMS: your phone opens the message already written, with the guest's name and a link to their own card. Press send. It's free and comes from your own number, so guests recognise it.

Choose Kiswahili or English.
A tick shows who you've already messaged.
You can edit the message in WhatsApp before sending.

Sent by EnvelopBox

Tap the send button under EnvelopBox sends. Our team checks your list for mistakes, then sends every guest their own card link: by SMS to their phone, and by email to guests who gave an email. It usually takes a few hours, and we let you know when they're out. Automatic SMS is being switched on; until then, our team sends by email and you send the rest from your phone.

You can use both ways for one event. Guests who already have their invitation aren't sent it twice.

Your card must be chosen (or approved) before you send, because every message links to each guest's own card and QR code.

What guests receive

A link to their invitation page: their card with their name, a one-tap reply (I'll be there / Can't make it), the date for their calendar, and a QR code to show at the door. They don't need an app or an account.
