How can we help?

Install Signup Sheets for Gmail™ from the Google Workspace™ Marketplace. Then open Gmail™, start a new message, and click the Signup Sheets icon in the compose toolbar (or in the right-hand add-on panel). The first time, you'll approve a short list of non-sensitive permissions. It works in Gmail on the web and in the Gmail mobile apps. If you don't see the icon, refresh Gmail or reload the add-on panel.

No, it cannot read your email. The add-on only runs when you open it and only inserts the sheet you build into your draft. It uses a minimal set of non-sensitive permissions to run in Gmail™, insert the sheet block, identify you by email, and talk to our backend. It does not have access to read, send, or delete your messages. See our Privacy Policy for the full list and our Limited Use commitment.

No. Participants click a Sign Up button in your email, type their name on a mobile-friendly page, and they're done. There's no Google™ login, no app to download, no password, and no ads on the signup page, on any plan. It works for anyone you can email, in any email client, on any device.

When a slot fills, the next person can join the waitlist. If someone cancels using the manage link in their confirmation, the earliest waitlisted entry that fits is promoted and emailed automatically, so you never coordinate replacements by hand. Everyone who signs up gets a confirmation, and Signup Sheets sends an automatic reminder 24 hours before the event (Standard and Pro can customize reminder timing). Waitlists, confirmations, and reminders are included free on every plan.

A slot can never be double-booked. Signups are transactional, so the moment a slot is full the next person sees it as taken and can pick another slot or join the waitlist. Signing up again with the same email updates your existing entry instead of creating a duplicate.

Yes. Your dashboard shows the live roster for every sheet, where you can edit signups, close slots, and duplicate sheets for recurring events. Export to CSV on any plan, or use one-click export to Google Sheets™ on Pro. Participants can also edit or cancel their own signup via the magic link in their confirmation email.

Free covers your first 10 sheets with up to 10 slots each, plus waitlists, confirmations, and reminders. Standard ($100/yr) adds unlimited sheets, up to 100 slots, custom questions, themes, co-organizers, and full export. Pro ($200/yr) adds more seats, Google Sheets™ export, and removes branding. Standard and Pro bill annually via Stripe. See plans & pricing for the full comparison. Your participants never pay anything.

Open your dashboard, go to Billing, and click Manage subscription to reach the Stripe billing portal, where you can update payment details or cancel anytime. When you cancel, your plan stays active until the end of the period you already paid for, then reverts to Free automatically. Have a billing question or need a refund? Message us below.

You can delete individual sheets and their signups from your dashboard at any time. To remove your account and all associated data entirely, email support@verybigmachine.com from your account address and we'll take care of it. Details on what we store and why are in our Privacy Policy.
