GuestCard vs Paperless Post: 2026 Comparison

Paperless Post pioneered digital invitations, but their coin-per-send model means a wedding with 150 guests can easily cost $45–$120 before you factor in premium designs. GuestCard flips the model: one flat fee per event — $5 Pro for up to 500 guests, $10 Max for unlimited — and a canvas editor that actually lets you design, not just fill in template slots. Plus RSVP tracking, schedule pages, livestream, and post-event photo delivery included at no extra charge.

Why couples switch from Paperless Post

01

Stop paying per guest. GuestCard is $5 flat per event for up to 500 guests ($10 for unlimited) — not per guest.

02

Actually design your invitation. The canvas editor lets you move, resize, and style every element — not just swap out text in locked template slots.

03

Everything in one link. Paperless Post sends a card. GuestCard sends a card + RSVP page + schedule + gift registry + post-event photos.

04

No subscription. Pay when you have an event. Don't pay when you don't.

Frequently asked questions

Is GuestCard cheaper than Paperless Post for a wedding?

Almost always. Paperless Post charges per coin, per send — a 150-guest wedding typically costs $45–$120+ depending on the design tier. GuestCard charges $10 flat for a wedding-sized event with unlimited guests (the $5 Pro tier covers up to 500 guests). The only exception is very small events where Paperless Post's minimum coin purchase might come out similar.

Does GuestCard have as many templates as Paperless Post?

Paperless Post has a larger back-catalog built up over 15+ years. GuestCard has 30+ templates from independent designers, with new ones added regularly via the artist marketplace. If template volume is the deciding factor, Paperless Post wins today — but GuestCard's editor gives you more design freedom with each template.

Can I still send physical invitations with GuestCard?

GuestCard is digital-only. Paperless Post does offer printed card services. If physical printing is important, Paperless Post or a dedicated print shop is a better fit. For digital invites with full event management, GuestCard is the stronger option.
