You may create a GUID as invitation code, store it in your DB with the email of whom you send the invitation. When one identifies himself with that email and invitation code, create an account and sign invitation code as deprecated...

how to deprecate the invitation code bro ? should I delete it from the database ?

That's one option, but I think it is better to ad one more column to indicate deprecated invitations...
