Send game invite to friend

Options
I am using Photon PUN in Unity for a PS4 game.
I really can't figure out how to invite a friend to a game. I know you can use FindFriends to see if he is online and in a room, but that still doesn't help me send an invite.
I've seen some people say you can use Photon Chat for it, but that would mean i would have to pay for a services for one simple task?
I would greatly appreciate if someone had a simple projekt to show an invite system or some way to send a simple message, or anything that helps really.

Thanks in advance :)

    Hi @BenjaminJepsen,

    Thank you for choosing Photon!

    Photon Realtime or PUN are built in a way that only users joined to the same room can communicate with each other.
    That's why we suggest Photon Chat which allows this.
    If you want to avoid this, maybe you could build the invitation system through PlayStation's own party system? Or use another external service since Photon Chat also does not persist friends list.
