Last updated: May 2026
How do I create an event?
Click “Create Event,” choose whether the event is public or private, add your details, choose free or paid options, and publish. YouHostin’ will help generate a shareable event experience.
What is a private event?
A private event is invite-only. Hosts can invite guests by email. Invited guests receive a link to view and join the event.
Can I charge for an event?
Yes. Hosts can create paid public events, private attendee-fee events, or private split-cost events. Paid event tools may require payment and payout setup.
What is a Planning Room?
A Planning Room helps a host invite people to vote on details like date, time, location, and what to bring before turning the plan into an official event.
How do guests join an event?
Guests can open the event page, click RSVP or Join Event, and follow the steps. If login is required, YouHostin’ will bring the guest back to the event after login.
How do saved guests work?
Hosts can save guest emails when creating private events, making it easier to invite the same people again in the future.
How do check-ins work?
Check-in tools may vary by event. YouHostin’ may support confirmation emails, guest access links, host dashboards, and future self-service check-in tools.
I did not receive an email. What should I do?
Check your spam or promotions folder first. If you still do not see it, ask the host to confirm the email address they used or contact support.
How do I contact support?
Email support@youhostin.com with your account email, event name, and a short explanation of what happened.
