Step by step

  1. This is the Marketplace. Hosts list trips they lead, and travelers book along.
  2. If you know a place better than anyone, you can host a trip, and earn a host fee for every traveler who joins.
  3. For example, Marcus is hosting a five day food trip through Mexico City.
  4. Click Plan a Trip, click Host, and choose List a Marketplace Trip. The first time, you'll set up your host account and payouts.
  5. Create your listing. Add a title, the destination, and your dates, then click Create and Start Building.
  6. Then add a cover photo from your library, and write a short description that tells travelers what makes the trip special.
  7. Next, build the itinerary. Add stays, restaurants, and activities to the Idea Board, then place each one on a day.
  8. Then open each day, and click Add to drop ideas from your board into the schedule.
  9. When the plan is final, click Lock. A locked itinerary can't change under travelers who have already booked.
  10. Now set your host fee. This is what you earn from each traveler, and EWIG shows exactly what you'll take home.
  11. Set how many spots are open, then click Publish.
  12. Your trip is now live on the Marketplace, with a walkthrough travelers can preview before they book.
  13. Click Preview Itinerary on Globe to see it the way travelers will, as the globe flies them to every stop.
  14. Click Next, and the globe flies on to the next stop, so travelers can follow every day of the trip, stop by stop, before they ever book.
  15. Travelers book along with you, and you earn your fee for every booking. Payouts arrive every Friday.
