Yes! When creating or editing your event, you can enable the "Allow plus guests" option. This adds a field where guests can specify how many additional people they're bringing. You'll see the total guest count (including plus-ones) in your admin dashboard, making it easy to plan for the right number of attendees.

Question 6

How do I track RSVPs in real-time?

Your admin dashboard updates in real-time as guests submit their RSVPs. You can see the total number of attendees, view the complete guest list with names and responses, and monitor response rates. The dashboard also shows timestamps for each RSVP, helping you track when responses come in.

Question 7

What analytics are available on OwlRSVP?

Accepted Answer

Basic plans include essential analytics like total RSVPs, response rates, and guest lists. Pro and Enterprise plans unlock advanced analytics including response trends over time, response velocity (how quickly guests RSVP), guest insights, and comparison tools to analyze multiple events. All analytics are available in your admin dashboard and can be exported for further analysis.

Question 8

How secure is my event data?

Security is a top priority. All event data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Admin access is protected by secure tokens, and we never share your guest information with third parties. We use industry-standard security practices and regularly update our systems to protect your data.

Question 9

Can I edit my event after creating it?

Accepted Answer

Question 10

How long are RSVP links active?

RSVP links remain active indefinitely unless you archive or delete the event. This means guests can RSVP at any time, even months after you create the event. You can set custom RSVP deadlines in your event settings if you want to close responses by a specific date.

Question 11

Can I embed my RSVP page on my website?
