RSVPMaker is a WordPress plugin you can use on your own website to promote meetings and take registrations or reservations. When you charge for events, you can take advantage of integrations with PayPal and Stripe.
This event scheduling system is used by businesses, political campaigns, community groups, networking organizations, and professional conferences — including online, in-person, and hybrid events. Send reminders and follow-up messages through RSVPMaker’s built-in email marketing tools. Invite attendees to sign up for your email list, so you can stay in touch long after a given event is over.
If you already have a WordPress website, RSVPMaker is available as a free plugin. Or you can get a site hosted here with many options pre-configured, including integration with Postmark for reliable email delivery. Support and consulting services for independently hosted sites are also available (write to david@rsvpmaker.com).
