Built on your RSVPs
Guests opt in on the RSVP form
"Who's playing?" sits on your RSVP form, and each person in a reply, party members and extra guests included, ticks the games they want. Or pick "Everyone attending", add players yourself, or let anyone with the link join.
Changes after a draw are fixed for you
If someone drops out of a Secret Santa after names are drawn, or a late guest joins, the matches are repaired with as few changes as possible, and only the people whose match changed hear about it.
Private links, by email
Each player gets their own link to their match, number, team or bingo card, so a secret stays secret, the host's included when the host plays.
- Secret Santa with wishlists, exclusions and private emailed matches
- White Elephant numbers, raffles, contests, predictions, teams, bingo and squares
- Guests join on the RSVP form; changes after a draw are fixed for you

Questions
What is Party Games?
Party Games is an add-on for an RSVPlinks event. Run games from your guest list: Secret Santa and White Elephant draws, raffles, costume contests, baby pools, team picks, bingo and football squares. One purchase unlocks every game on that event.
How much does Party Games cost?
$6 or 1 credit per event, paid once. It works on free events too, so you don't need a paid plan to play.
How do guests join a game?
Most games use your guest list: guests tick the games they want on the RSVP form, for every person in their party. You can also include everyone attending, add players yourself, or, for votes, predictions and squares, let anyone with the link join by giving a name.
What happens if someone drops out after the Secret Santa draw?
The draw is repaired automatically: the person who had them takes over their match, or a pair is rewired when that isn't allowed. Only givers whose match changed get a new email, and exclusions still hold.
Do guests need an app or an account?
No. Guests play from your event page and the private links in their emails, on any phone or computer.
Does football squares handle money?
No. RSVPlinks never collects or pays out money for any game. Squares are claimed, numbers are drawn and each quarter's winner is shown; anything else is up to your group.
Is there a free version?
Yes. The Secret Santa generator, White Elephant number generator, Random name picker are free with no account. They work from a pasted list rather than your RSVPs.
