“More bookings means more days on the snow, which means more money earned. MEETR makes it easier for the right clients to discover me and I am bringing the client, so I get to earn more per lesson. It pays for itself.”
B.K., Ski Instructor, Montana
No commission
MEETR is built the way guiding should work. No commission on your bookings, no middleman between you and the client, and a profile that does the convincing while you're on the mountain or the river.
On Pro Platinum, payments run on Stripe. Stripe charges its standard processing rate to your own Stripe account, and clients pay a 1.5% MEETR service fee. Many booking platforms take a percentage of every booking instead. Tips go to you with no MEETR fee.

Why guides list
Travelers search MEETR by discipline and location, then read your profile before they reach out.
Clients pick you for your specialty, your style, and your certifications, so the requests you get are the lessons you want to teach.
Verified certifications, video, and your own story do the convincing while you're out with a client.
Questions
Still unsure? Contact us. We've been in your boots and we're happy to help.
Yes. We never ask you to book outside your ski school or official channels. Think of MEETR as your marketing. Clients find you by your skills, specialties, and personality before they arrive, then book you through your school the way they always would. Your school keeps its booking, rates, and payment process.
No. Your clients book and pay through your school, so you don’t need MEETR’s booking or payment tools. Pro Plus is the right plan. Pro Platinum is for independent guides and outfitters who take bookings directly.
Point them to your ski school’s lesson booking and have them request you. MEETR gets you found. Your school handles the booking.
Have your ski school director reach out through our Resort Partnerships page and we’ll start the conversation.
Yes. There’s no trial period and no credit card required. Free profiles stay live as long as you keep them.
Yes, any time. Start free and move up when your season picks up.
Paid plans renew annually. You can change or cancel any time from your account dashboard. No long-term contracts and no cancellation fees.
No. On Pro Platinum, Stripe charges its standard processing fee to your Stripe account, and clients pay a 1.5% MEETR service fee at checkout. Nothing comes out of your rate for MEETR.
Verified outdoor guides and instructors across skiing, snowboarding, backcountry, climbing, fly fishing, whitewater, and more.
Yes. One profile can cover everything you guide or instruct. You don’t need a separate listing for each discipline. If you want help positioning yourself, contact us.
Snowboard instructor in Montana in the winter and Chile in the summer? No problem. On paid plans you can add extra locations so clients find you in both. Just contact us after you create your account.
Pro Plus and Pro Platinum members are eligible to be featured in The Dispatch or as a guest on Field Notes. It isn’t guaranteed, but if you have a good story, a unique specialty, a notable trip, or a niche expertise, we want to hear from you.
On Pro Platinum, your contact details and booking requests come straight to you. On other plans, clients reach you through MEETR.
Free shows your contact info on your profile: phone, email, or both. Pro Plus adds a private lead form, so you can take inquiries without putting your personal info out publicly.
Instead of showing your email or phone number publicly, the lead form lets clients send you a message directly through MEETR. You control the response and your contact info stays private.
No. The Pro Platinum booking platform is built into your MEETR profile, so clients can book and pay you directly without a separate website, scheduling tool, or payment processor.
Payments run on Stripe. Stripe charges its standard rate directly to your Stripe account: 2.9% + 30¢ for US cards, plus 1.5% for international cards and 1% if currency is converted. Clients pay a 1.5% MEETR service fee, shown before they pay. MEETR takes no commission, and tips carry no MEETR fee.
You connect your own Stripe account during setup. Payments settle to your Stripe balance and pay out to your bank. You manage payouts, bank details, and tax documents in your own Stripe dashboard.
The Pro Platinum booking platform is optional. It’s for guides who operate independently and don’t have an existing system. If you’re already set up elsewhere, Pro Plus may be the better fit.
For pros
Start free, then upgrade when your season picks up. You have world-class skills and deserve to be found.
