From filling volunteer shifts automatically to collecting payments for bake sale pre-orders, PartyLabz replaces three or four tools with one.
Empty signup spots the week before your event? Auto-assign fills them from your RSVP list. Choose Lottery (random 1:1) or Coverage (round-robin so nobody is missed). Guests can still personalize their assignment.
Add several signup sheets to one event — a potluck list plus a volunteer list plus a supplies list. All tied to the same RSVP guest list, so anyone attending can sign up for anything. One coordinator view, many coordination workflows.
Set prices on signup items whether guests pay online or in person. Enable Stripe checkout when you want to collect card payments — or leave it off and collect cash at the event. Prices show either way, so guests know what they're committing to.
Signup sheets are one tool of many — the event website also gives you RSVP or ticketing, a budget tracker, a checklist, guest messaging, and a gallery. All tied to the same guest list. Not a form, a hub.
7 print formats including a blank order form you can hand out to guests who won't use online tools. Bridge digital and paper for church coordinators with older parishioners or PTA meetings where paper still rules.
Not sure what items to add? On paid plans, let AI draft your list based on the event type: potluck dishes, volunteer shifts, fundraiser goods, or party chores. Edit and go.
Volunteer shifts half-empty three days before the event? Don't beg — auto-assign from your RSVP list in seconds.
Randomly pair each guest with one signup item. Fair 1:1 matching — nobody gets stuck with two chores while others get none. Perfect when items and guests are roughly balanced.
Round-robin so every item gets exactly one owner. If items outnumber guests, some guests get multiple items. Perfect when you must fill every slot before event day.
Auto-assign shows you a preview of the proposed pairings. Approve to commit — or tweak the pool first (starred guests only, hand-picked selection, etc.). Guests can override their assignment if they prefer a different item.
The small features that matter after your third event — the ones that turn a signup tool into a workflow you actually want to use.
One parent RSVPs and signs up items for everyone in the household in a single dialog — perfect for potluck dishes and meal train slots contributed by whole families.
Guests can claim the same item twice with different notes (bring two salads with different themes, work two shifts at different times), or edit an existing signup without un-signing first. No lost place in line.
Group items into custom categories (Appetizers / Mains / Desserts, or Setup / Serving / Cleanup) with rename and reorder. The kitchen coordinator's dream.
Turn a signup sheet into a wedding, baby shower, or birthday gift registry. Guests reserve gifts with links to external stores. See what's still available before someone else grabs it.
If you take pre-orders on paper today, or you switched to Google Forms and still can't collect payment or cap quantities — PartyLabz is built for exactly that job.
No more manual tally at the kitchen table. No lost forms. No illegible handwriting. Guests order online, quantities update in real time, cut-off dates enforce themselves, and reminders go out automatically. Print a clean vendor sheet the morning of the event.
Google Forms can't collect payment, cap items at a stock quantity, or limit per-guest orders. PartyLabz signup items support prices (Stripe-optional), stock counts per item, per-guest caps, images, and descriptions. Reports come built in.
Don't want to set up Stripe for a one-off fall marketplace or bake sale? Leave the price off. Guests reserve their items online and pay cash when they pick up. You still get all the coordination benefits — you just skip the payment step.
Signup sheets look different in each community — here is who they help most.
Sunday service signups, meal trains for families in need, event volunteer shifts. Set it up once, duplicate weekly. Auto-assign fills the empty slots before Sunday.
Bake sale pre-orders, teacher appreciation signups, parent volunteer shifts. Ditch the paper order forms — collect orders with or without payment and print reports for drop-off day. AI drafts items when you are short on time.
Replace paper order forms and Google Forms at fall marketplaces, bake sales, and pop-up fundraisers. Take orders with per-item stock limits, optional prices for card payment, or no prices for cash-on-pickup. Print vendor sheets for the big day.
Team lunch signups where colleagues pay for their portion. No more Venmo requests. Slack-friendly public link. Perfect for hybrid teams coordinating in-office days.
Sell pre-order T-shirts, gala silent-auction items, or fundraiser packages. Replace clunky Google Forms with signup items that support prices, quantities, and per-guest caps. Combine with donations and event tickets on one platform. Special discount for registered nonprofits.
Snack rotation, jersey pre-orders with payment, carpool signups, tournament fees. Auto-assign snack duty so parents stop asking 'who signed up already?'
Snack duty rotation, camping trip supply signups, patrol assignments, and dues collection. Auto-assign fills gaps before troop meetings. Parents pay for uniforms, trip fees, or gear orders directly on the signup.
Coordinate meal drop-offs for new parents, illness recovery, or community outreach. One meal per guest cap. Date-specific signups with cut-off deadlines.
Real advantages that matter after the second or third event you organize.
Auto-assign, AI-drafted items, and print-ready reports save hours of manual work. Focus on your event, not on chasing volunteers by text.
Pay per event or subscribe monthly for multiple events. No per-seat fees. Cancel any time. See our pricing page for full details.
Registered nonprofits get a significant discount on BUSINESS+ for unlimited events, donation collection, and dedicated support.
Free events show a small ad block at the bottom of the event page (Google ads plus a promo for our sister app, Make A Hunt). Any paid plan removes ads entirely — your guests only see your event.
PartyLabz is a full event platform: RSVP, guest messaging, gallery, schedule, tickets, and signup — all in one place. Explore every feature.
Common questions from coordinators, PTAs, church leaders, and nonprofits before signing up.
Yes. The free plan lets you host events for up to 10 guests. Your event website starts with 1 page — switch its function to Signup List via Tab Settings (one click). Free events show a small ad block at the bottom of the event page. Upgrade to LIGHT for more guests, additional pages, and an ad-free experience.
Yes — guests RSVP first, then sign up for items. RSVP and signup live on the same event website (RSVP on one tab, signups on another). We're working on letting guests start with signups and RSVP at the end, but that's not shipped yet.
You connect your own Stripe account. When you enable online payment on a signup item, guests pay by card as they sign up. PartyLabz takes a small platform fee; the rest goes to your Stripe balance. Prefer cash at the event? Set prices on items without enabling online payment — guests see prices and pay you in person.
No. Guests sign up with just an email — no account creation for them. Only you (the host) need an account.
Yes. Refund from your dashboard — Stripe handles the money movement back to the guest.
Yes. Export your signup list as CSV for spreadsheets, or print any of 7 report formats (by item, by guest, summary, detailed, order form, checklist, and a blank order form for paper collection).
Yes. Registered nonprofits get a significant discount on the BUSINESS+ plan (unlimited events, donation collection, dedicated support). Reach out to support to apply.
