How to Invite Members to Your Friends and Family Subscription

How to share your invite link and add members to your Family Plan.

Once you've purchased a Friends and Family Plan, you can invite up to 5 additional people (for a total of 6 people including yourself) to join your plan at no extra cost.

Important

  • Please do not use the family plan to create an account for children under 13 years old. In order to stay compliant with COPPA regulations, children under 13 should be added as a kids profile under a parent or guardian's account.

  • Only the owner of the Friends and Family Plan should invite members or request members to be added to their plan.


Two Ways to Invite Members to Your Family Plan

There are two methods to invite people to your Friends and Family Plan:

  1. Invite members by email

  2. Share your invite link directly with friends & family

Choose the method that works best for your situation.

Method 1: Invite Members by Email

You can invite specific people to your Friends and Family Plan by entering their email address directly at hallow.com/settings/family.

⚠️ If someone created their Hallow account using only a phone number, they can still accept an invitation sent to their email. They’ll need to log in with their phone number as usual. They can also add an email address to their account in the app settings.

How to invite members by email:

To invite a member by email:

  1. Log in with your Hallow account credentials.

  2. Under the Members section, click Add Member.

  3. Choose the type of member you’re adding:

    • Friend: Invite a friend

    • Family Member: Invite an adult family member

  4. Enter their email address in the email field.

  5. Click Send Invite to send an email with your invite link inside.

  6. The person you invited will receive an email with instructions to join your Friends and Family Plan.

Method 2: Share your Family Plan invite link

Sharing your Family Plan invite link is the easiest way to invite members. This method works for everyone, including people who created their Hallow account with only a phone number.

About Your Family Plan Invite Link

Your Family Plan invite link has a few helpful features:

  • Universal link: The same link works for all invited members. You don’t need separate links for each person

  • No expiration: Your invite link does not expire

  • Limited spots: Only the first 5 people who accept the invite can join your plan

How to obtain and share your invite link:

  1. Log in using the same credentials you use for your Hallow account.

  2. Find your Family Plan invite link on the page.

  3. Click Copy Link.

  4. Share the link with the people you want to add to your plan.

You can share your invite link through:

  • Email

  • Text message

  • Social media, such as Facebook or WhatsApp


How family members join using your invite link

If the person you're inviting already has an active individual Hallow subscription, they MUST cancel it BEFORE clicking your Family Plan invite link. If they don't cancel first, they will get an error and won't be able to join. After canceling, they can click your invite link to join the Family Plan.

👉 For International Users:

When accepting a Family Plan invite, you must create your account using an email address (not a phone number). Phone-number-only account creation is not supported for international users.

When someone clicks your invite link, they’ll see two options:

  • Sign Up & Accept: Choose this if they don’t have a Hallow account yet

  • Already have an account? Log in: Choose this if they already have a Hallow account or have downloaded Hallow before

Step-by-step:

  1. Tap the invite link

  2. Sign in.

    • For people new to Hallow: Tap Create an account

    • For people who already have a Hallow account: Tap Already have an account? Log in

  3. Choose a sign-up method:

    • Email address

    • Phone number (US users only)

    • Google Sign-In

    • Apple ID Sign-In

  4. Complete the account creation or sign-in process

  5. You will be automatically added to the Friends and Family plan

  6. You can now access all Hallow premium content 🎊

👉 Important: If you're new to Hallow, don't subscribe or start a trial

When joining a Family Plan, new users should ONLY create an account. They should NOT subscribe or start their own trial.

If they accidentally start a free trial, they’ll need to cancel it and click your invite link again.


Family Plan Member Limits & FAQ

How many members can I invite?

  • Your Friends & Family Plan includes you plus 5 additional members (6 total).

  • ⚠️ Be mindful when sharing your invite link: When you share your Family Plan invite link, only the first 5 people to accept will be able to join.

    • If you share the link with 10 people, only the first 5 who click and accept will successfully join your plan

    • Once 5 members have joined, the invite link will no longer work for anyone else

    • Invitations do not expire, so your invitees can accept at any time

💡 Tip: Share your invite link only with the specific people you want on your plan to avoid confusion or disappointment.

Can I see who has accepted my invitation?

  • You can see members in your Friends and Family Plan settings after they successfully accept the invite and join your plan.

  • There is currently no pending invitation status.

💡Tip: Since pending invitations are not visible in the app, you may want to keep your own list of who you’ve invited and ask them to let you know once they’ve joined. This can help you track your available spots.

Can I remove someone from my Friends and Family Plan?

  • You can remove someone from your Friends and Family Plan from your family settings page.

To remove someone from your Friends and Family Plan:

  1. Find the member you want to remove in the Members section.

  2. Click the minus (−) icon next to their name.

  3. Confirm the removal.

What happens when I remove someone from my friends & family plan?

  • When you remove someone from your Friends and Family Plan, they lose access to the Hallow Subscription prayers and features immediately.

  • To regain access, they’ll need to subscribe individually or be invited to another Friends and Family Plan.

What if the member I added says they still can't access my friends & family plan?
