How it works

  1. Create the plan

    Date, place, kids, meals, and what to bring — in one event, not a dozen chat threads.

  2. See who is coming

    Attendance, meals, and payments update in one place so you are not chasing screenshots.

What you can plan

Family gatherings first, and the same flow works for a team lunch or office party. Tap a type to see public ones.

Plan the details together

Guests don't just RSVP. They help pick the date, sign up to bring food, and see how to pay the host.

Everyone knows where things stand

Every event shows whether it's coming up, happening now, postponed or cancelled, whether it's still taking guests, who can see it, and who's hosting.

Hala · هلا

Hala means welcome

It's the first word at the door when family arrives. HalaPlan is built for that moment, and for everything before it: who's coming, who's bringing what, and when to put the kettle on.

Proudly Canadian

HalaPlan is built and run by Synergia Solutions Holding Ltd., a Canadian company in Coquitlam, British Columbia. Families use it all over the world, and a real person here reads every message.

Questions hosts ask

How do guests pay?

The host chooses how they want to be paid: cash, bank transfer, PayPal, or the instant transfer people use where they live, such as WAMD, Fawran, Aani, InstaPay, CliQ, Bizum, Wero or Interac e-Transfer. Prices are in the event's own currency. Guests see the instructions on the invite page and mark when they've paid, and the host confirms once the money arrives.

Does HalaPlan work in my country?

Yes. Each event has its own currency and time zone, and hosts are offered the instant transfers people use there. Phone numbers work with any country code, and the weekend on Explore follows yours: Friday and Saturday in most of the Gulf, Egypt and Jordan, Saturday and Sunday elsewhere.

Do guests need an account?

Anyone with the link can open the invite. To RSVP, vote on a date or sign up to bring something, guests sign up with their email so the host knows who is coming.

Can I keep the address private?

Yes. Turn on "hide location until confirmed" and guests only see the city until their spot is confirmed. Distances to the event are rounded until then too.
