Product overview

What is FollowTo?
FollowTo is a community and events platform for organizers. Create a public community page, publish events, and collect OTP verified RSVPs in under 30 seconds. Guests confirm with a 6-digit email code; no attendee account required. The Free plan includes 1 community, 3 active events, and 100 confirmed registrations per event.
What makes FollowTo a free RSVP tool with OTP verified sign-ups?
FollowTo verifies every RSVP with a 6-digit email OTP, so your attendee list is real. Organizers get permanent public community pages with a shareable link, city discovery at /events, attendee dashboards with pending vs confirmed counts, and CSV export on Pro (500 registrations per event). Free plan: 1 community, 3 active events, 100 registrations per event.
Who uses FollowTo as a community events platform?
Meetup hosts, workshop leaders, campus clubs, and conference teams use FollowTo for OTP verified RSVP and per-community pricing. You get a permanent public community page, up to 3 active events on Free, city discovery at /events, and CSV export on Pro. Attendees confirm with a 6-digit email code; no FollowTo account required.
What is the difference between RSVP and registration on FollowTo?
RSVP is for casual and free events: coffee meetups, community gatherings, workshops with no ticket. Registration is for ticketed or paid events, including built-in ticket tiers and checkout. Your dashboard lists every sign-up in one place, whatever the event type.
Do attendees need a FollowTo account?
No. Attendees only need the details your event form collects (name is always required; email, phone, and other fields depend on your settings). When email is collected, they confirm via a 6-digit OTP. Confirming automatically follows your community.

Discovery and sharing

Where can people find my community or events?
Each community gets its own public page on FollowTo with a shareable link you choose when you set up. Published events get SEO-friendly URLs and can appear in FollowTo discovery at /events and /communities, filterable by city, topic, and date. Share your community QR code or event link anywhere.
How do guests discover events near them?
Visit /events to browse upcoming events. Pick a city or let FollowTo suggest one from location. Filter by topic, tags, format (online, in-person, hybrid), and date range. Visit /communities to find organizer communities to follow.

Comparisons

Is FollowTo an alternative to Meetup?
Yes. FollowTo is built for community organizers who want verified RSVPs without attendee platform accounts. Meetup charges organizer fees and ties attendance to Meetup profiles. FollowTo Free includes 1 community, 3 active events, and 100 OTP confirmed registrations per event, plus public discovery at /events.
Is FollowTo an alternative to Luma?
Yes, when you need 6-digit email OTP verification, permanent public community pages, and per-community pricing. Luma supports free events and CSV export but does not verify attendee email with OTP. FollowTo also lists published events on /events and does not require attendees to create a platform account.
How does FollowTo compare to Eventbrite or Facebook Events?
FollowTo fits free meetups and community gatherings; Eventbrite fits large ticketed conferences with per-ticket fees. Facebook Events ties sign-ups to social profiles. FollowTo uses OTP email confirmation, organizer-controlled form fields, and optional ticket tiers with PayU checkout when you need paid registration.

Privacy and compliance

How does FollowTo handle attendee privacy?
Organizers choose which fields to collect at sign-up. Attendees can cancel RSVPs and delete accounts from Settings. Policies cover GDPR, DPDP, and CCPA. Pro and Enterprise organizers can export attendee CSV; Enterprise adds deletion audit logs and configurable retention.
Where can compliance teams review FollowTo policies?
See /app/compliance for privacy controls and user rights, /app/security for security practices, and /app/dpa for the Enterprise DPA template. Contact support for vendor reviews or a countersigned DPA.
