how paying works

every site starts on Sketch, free. you can set it up, share the link and collect up to 5 cards without paying anything. when the group is bigger than that, or you want every game open, you move the site to Party: one payment of $19, for that birthday, and that's it.

upgrading later only ever costs the difference. Party to Milestone is $20, not another $39.

why one-time

a birthday happens once a year. paying monthly for it would be strange, and forgetting to cancel would be worse. so it's one price per celebration, like a really good card, except this one has an island in it.

what nobody pays for

  • friends never pay, never sign up and never see an ad.
  • the birthday person never pays for their own party.
  • no subscription, no renewal email, no card kept on file for next month.

money questions.

  • how much is it?

    Sketch free, Party $19, Milestone $39. one payment per birthday site. Sketch takes 5 friends' cards; Party takes 50 and opens every game.

  • is it a subscription?

    no. you pay once per celebration and that's it.

  • do friends pay anything?

    never. friends always join free.

  • can i upgrade later?

    yes, and you only pay the difference: Party to Milestone is $20.

  • how long does it stay up?

    on Sketch, 30 days after the birthday. on Party, it takes cards for a year and then stays up as a read-only archive. Milestone keeps it open two years, then archives it.

  • can i download everything?

    yes, on Party and up: every card and video in one zip.

  • can you make a custom look?

    a theme made by hand for one person is possible. it isn't sold at checkout; write to k.bowen.liu@gmail.com.

  • when can i start one?

    very soon. we're taping the last bits down. no waitlist, no email list: come back and the start button will be live.
