Going live and how long access lasts
What each invitation status means, how long it stays live, and how to pause, renew or delete it.

Your invitation is free to prepare and preview. It goes live, meaning guests can open your links, once your payment is approved. This guide explains each status you'll see and what to do when your access period ends.
What the status means
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Preview | Only you can see it. Guests can't open your links yet. |
| Payment received | We have your payment and are activating it. |
| Live until … | Guests can open your links until the date shown. |
| Expired | The access period has ended. Guests see that it's no longer available. |
The status appears next to your invitation's name on My invitations and at the top of its page. While you're in preview, opening your own website shows a preview banner at the top, with a Go live link.
How long it stays live
Each package includes an access period, shown at checkout as “live for …”. It starts when your payment is approved. When you're live, the Overview shows “Guests can open it until” and the date. Check pricing for the access period of each package.
When it expires
- 1
Nothing is lost
Your invitation, guest list and replies are kept. Only guest access is closed.
- 2
Renew
Click Renew on the invitation's page or Overview, choose a package at checkout and pay as before.
- 3
Links work again
Once approved, the same links open again. You don't need to send anything new.
Pause or publish
Once you've paid, you can take the invitation offline without losing anything. Go to Settings → Links & visibility and click Pause invitation. Guests see “not available” until you click Publish invitation.
Keep it private
- Turn off Main link open to anyone so only function, group and private links work.
- Set an Access code under Settings → Privacy. Guests must enter it, then tap Open invitation.
Deleting an invitation
Under Settings → Delete invitation, click Delete event and type DELETE to confirm. This permanently removes the invitation, its cards, guests, replies and wishes, and every link stops working.
