Understanding Your RSVP Status

Your RSVP status tells you whether you’re confirmed for a plan, waiting for approval, or still need to take action before attending.

You can view your current RSVP status directly on any plan you’ve joined or requested to join.

What Happens When I Join a Plan?

Depending on the plan, one of two things will happen:

Instant Confirmation

Some plans allow you to join immediately.

Once you RSVP:

  • your status changes to I’m In
  • you’ll gain access to the plan experience
  • you’ll be able to participate in the group chat (if available)

Host Approval Required

Some plans require host approval before you can attend.

When you request to join:

  • your status becomes Pending
  • the host reviews your request
  • if approved, your status changes to Going!
  • if declined, your status changes to Declined

What Does “Pending Purchase” Mean?

For some ticketed plans:

  1. The host first approves your request
  2. You then need to purchase your ticket

Until payment is completed, your status will show:

Pending Purchase

Your spot is not fully secured until payment is successfully completed.


Group Chat Access

Plan group chats unlock once your RSVP status is:

  • I’m In
  • Going!
  • Maybe

You won’t have access while your status is:

  • Pending
  • Pending Purchase
  • Declined

What Happens if a Plan Is Full?

If a plan reaches its guest limit, new attendees won’t be able to join.

At this time:

  • Pie does not offer waitlists
  • additional spots only become available if someone leaves the plan

FAQ

Can I change my RSVP after joining?

Usually yes.

You can leave most plans at any time unless you’ve already purchased a ticket.


Will the host know when I join?

Yes.

Hosts receive notifications when attendees join or request to join their plans.


Can I rejoin after leaving?

Usually yes.

For plans that require approval, you’ll need to submit a new request and wait for approval again.


Can I be removed from a plan?

Yes.

Hosts can remove attendees from plans. If that happens, your status will change to Not Going.


Why can’t I access the group chat?

Your RSVP status may still be:

  • Pending
  • Pending Purchase
  • Declined

Chat access unlocks after you’re confirmed for the plan.
