Terms of use

Plain terms for a marketplace that takes a cut of bookings. If something here reads as though it were written to protect us at your expense, tell us and we will look at it again.

What we are

We rank guides and outfitters, and we take a 10% fee on bookings made through the platform. We are not the guide. We do not run the hunt, own the ground in most cases, or carry the guide’s insurance.

What we promise

That every ranking input has been checked against a document, a payment record or a log. That no operation can pay for placement. That we will suspend an outfitter who cancels late without making it right, and tell you why on their profile.

What we do not promise

Birds. Weather. Water. A verified outcome history is the best available evidence of how an operation performs, and it is still not a guarantee about your particular morning.

Your obligations

Hold the licenses and stamps your hunt requires unless the listing says the guide handles them. Follow the rules on the ground. Pay through the platform.

—Do not submit a review for a trip you did not take.

—Do not ask a guide to take payment off-platform, and tell us if one asks you.

—Behave in a way that does not put a guide’s license at risk.

Suspension and removal

We suspend outfitters for unanswered bookings, late cancellations without remedy, lapsed documents, chargebacks and coordinated review submission. A suspension can be appealed once in writing, and the appeal is read by someone who did not make the original call.

Disputes

Bring it to us before your bank. We hold the payment record, the message thread and the booking history, which is usually enough to settle who owed what. Where we cannot, we refund the hunter and recover from the outfitter.
