Alternative Option
Prefer a Flat Fee?
Flat Fee Per Booking
For vendors who prefer predictable costs over percentage-based commission, we also offer a flat per-booking fee model. Instead of a percentage cut, you pay a fixed amount for every successful booking — regardless of the booking value.

FAQ
Common Questions
How long does the setup take? ⌄
After approval, we typically have your listing live within 2–5 business days. We handle all the setup — you just need to provide your experience details, pricing, and photos.
Do I need to manage the booking system myself? ⌄
No. We handle everything. You simply receive an email notification for each booking with the customer's full details. There's no dashboard to log into or system to manage.
How do I get paid? ⌄
Payments are processed through Stripe. The booking amount is collected from the customer and settled to your bank account, minus our commission or flat fee. Payment timing depends on your Stripe setup.
Can I set my own prices and availability? ⌄
Absolutely. You set your own pricing and we configure it in the system for you. If you need to update prices or availability, just contact our team and we'll make the changes promptly.
Commission or flat fee — which should I choose? ⌄
It depends on your average booking value. Lower-priced, high-volume experiences often do better with the flat $50 per-booking fee, while higher-priced experiences may prefer the percentage-based commission. Our team will help you decide during onboarding.
What types of businesses can join? ⌄
We work with any locally operated experience provider — jet ski operators, boat charters, skydiving, fishing charters, helicopter tours, horse carriage rides, kayaking, ATV/quad tours, bike tours, bus tours, paragliding, and more. If you offer an outdoor adventure worldwide, we want to list you.
