A birthday invitation has one job: tell people whose day it is, when to turn up, and how to say yes. TurtlePic turns all of that into one link you can drop in a chat, whether it is a 1st birthday at home or a 50th at a restaurant.
Free Forever plan, no credit card needed.
In short: With TurtlePic you make a birthday invitation online for free. Choose Confetti, Champagne or Make a Wish, add the party details, and share one link. Guests reply on their phones, you see who is coming, and after the party they find their own photos with a selfie.
The same invite works for both, but the words should not.
 Kids’ party |  Milestone adult birthday | |
|---|---|---|
| You are really writing to | Parents | The guest |
| Times to give | Start and pick-up | Start, and when dinner is served |
| Ask in the reply | Adults and kids, any food allergy | Meal preference, travel, stay |
| Tone | Playful, short | Warm or a little cheeky |
| Handy add-ons | Contact details, Notes for guests | Dress code, Transport & shuttle |
Four starting points, one for each kind of party. Aarav is a sample name.

Guests tap to reply and you see every answer in one list. Your online RSVP can also ask about meal preference, travel, stay, song requests, or a question of your own. A DJ will thank you for the song list.
TurtlePic also emails guests who said Yes a day before the party and 2 hours before it.
Nothing to start. A birthday invitation is included on the Free Forever plan, which holds 5 events at a time. It carries a “Made with TurtlePic” badge, and any paid plan takes that off. See pricing
A birthday invitation should say whose birthday it is, the date, time and venue, and how to reply. Add a dress code or food note if it helps. TurtlePic gives you a place for each of these as you build the invite.
Most parents write it in a warm voice, sometimes as if the baby is inviting you, then give the time and venue. Mention lunch or dinner, because guests with small children plan around meals. The first birthday sample on this TurtlePic page is ready to copy.
Say clearly that it is a surprise, give an arrival time before the birthday person comes, and ask guests not to forward it. With TurtlePic, you can put the cover story in Notes for guests and share the link only with people who should know.
Two to three weeks is a good gap for most parties, and more if guests need to travel. A TurtlePic invite can go out the day you make it, and you can edit it later on the same link if plans change.
TurtlePic makes a mobile invite you share as a link, not a card file for printing. If you want a printed card as well, you can print your invite’s QR code on it, so guests can scan it and reply.
Yes. TurtlePic lets you split the count into adults and kids in the RSVP settings, and you can set the most people one guest can bring.
No. Your guests tap the TurtlePic link, answer in a few seconds and they are done. There is nothing to sign up for.
Yes. A TurtlePic invite works just as well for a small party at home as for a booked venue, and you only share the link with the people you choose. Planning a welcome for a new baby instead? See our naming ceremony invitation page.
