Gather

Spend less time coordinating your next gathering. Sign in with Apple to create your account and return to your events across devices. Gather brings event planning and settling up into one app. Create an event, invite your group, manage RSVPs and waitlists, and keep everyone informed. Confirm who attended, add your event costs, and review each person’s share. • Create events and share invitations. • Manage guest lists, RSVPs, waitlists, and attendance. • Keep the event conversation alongside the details. • Review shared bills with exact cent allocation. • Record payments received and refunds already sent. • Use links to your preferred event, chat, and payment services, then return to your event in Gather. Gather records payment activity; it does not send, receive, or hold money. External links open the selected service and do not automatically synchronize its messages, RSVPs, or payment history.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Gather at fortnightly against Sureplan's monthly. Sureplan's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
