Frequently Asked Questions

Commercial Terms & Invoicing FAQ

Seasonal mountain sports experience dramatic peaks and troughs. Ski schools earn the vast majority of their revenue between December and April, while MTB schools operate primarily from May through October. A flat monthly subscription penalizes you during off-season shoulder months. Our 1% year-end fee aligns our incentives: we only earn when you actually take bookings.
