Personal or business account

What a personal account is

One person, any number of events, each paid for on its own. There is no subscription, no seat count and nothing to renew — a new event starts on the free tier however much you spent on the last one.

For a wedding, a birthday, a leaving do or a family reunion this is the right shape, and switching would add cost without adding anything you need.

1. Start personal. It costs nothing and covers your own events completely.
2. Switch when the name matters. The moment somebody else s guests see the page, whose brand is on it starts to count.
3. Set billing details before the first purchase. On either shape, an issued invoice does not change.

What a business account adds

Your own brand name, logo and colours in front of a client s guests, your own domain, seats for colleagues, and an allowance of events for the period rather than a purchase each time. It is billed as a prepaid subscription, 6 or 12 months at a time.

It also adds roles, so a colleague can run events without seeing billing and a bookkeeper can see billing without touching events.

The dividing line is not how many events you run. It is whose name is on the sign.

When switching is worth it

When you are being paid to run somebody else s event. At that point a guest page carrying our name rather than yours gives away exactly the visibility you were hired for, and no amount of per-event purchasing fixes that.

Running many of your own parties is not the trigger. Ten personal events a year is still a personal account.

The watermark is a separate thing

The watermark on a guest page disappears with the first paid personal tier, so you do not need a business account to remove it. That is the step people reach for first and it is often all they wanted.

Your own brand in place of ours is the step above that, and it is what the business plans are for.

What happens when you switch

Events you already own stay yours, with the plans you bought for them and the windows they are running on. A business plan governs what you create from then on rather than rewriting what is already there.

So there is no bad moment to switch, and nothing to migrate.

Billing details either way

Both shapes carry a company name, address and VAT number on the invoice if you set them, and both fix those details at the moment of purchase. A private buyer simply leaves the company fields empty.

Set them before the first purchase on either shape. That advice does not change.
