Built by a Family, For Families
We know family celebrations matter. The birthday parties, the reunions, the "just because" gatherings - they're the moments that become memories.
But planning them? That was always a hassle. Copy-pasting emails. Remembering who to invite. Keeping track of RSVPs on random text threads.
So we built Gatheroo - the platform that makes family celebrations effortless.
Our mission is simple: help families spend less time planning and more time celebrating together.
"Life's too short for complicated event planning. Family time should be easy, joyful, and stress-free."
- The Gatheroo Team
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Gatheroo
Q:Is Gatheroo really free?
Yes! Private family events are 100% free forever. Public events are currently just $1 (normally $10) and include premium features like SMS invitations and sponsored placement. No hidden fees, no subscriptions.
Q:What is QuickVite™?
QuickVite™ is our secret weapon! Set up your family and friend lists once, then invite everyone with a single click for every future event. No more copying emails or typing names - it's truly one-click invitations.
Q:How is this different from Facebook Events?
Facebook Events requires everyone to have Facebook. Gatheroo works via email and text - Grandma doesn't need an account! Plus, we have QuickVite™, RSVP tracking, photo sharing, potluck coordination, and way more family-focused features.
Q:Can I keep my events private?
Absolutely! You control who sees your event. Make it public for everyone, invite-only for your guest list, or completely private. Your celebration, your rules.
Q:What's included in the $1 premium event?
Premium events get SMS invitations (text your family!), event chat & messaging, advanced RSVP tracking, potluck coordination, gift registry integration, and priority support. It's everything you need for the perfect celebration.
Q:Do I need to invite people manually every time?
Nope! That's the magic of QuickVite™. Add people to your lists once (family, friends, card club, etc.), then invite everyone instantly with one click. It remembers who comes to your events and suggests additions too.
Q:Can I use this for business events?
Gatheroo is designed for family celebrations (birthdays, reunions, holidays, etc.). For business events, we recommend Eventbrite or similar platforms. However, if you're a local business that wants to sponsor or advertise to families, contact us!
Q:How do I get paid if I'm selling tickets?
Connect your Stripe account (it's free and takes 2 minutes), and payments go directly to you. We don't touch your money - you get 100% of ticket sales, minus standard Stripe processing fees (~2.9%).
