What is WhenInX?

WhenInX is online marketplace for secondary touristic services. When I say secondary I mean on everything else except accommodation and transportation. Services like hiking, biking, paragliding or scuba diving, you name it.

 

How it works?

Users-Hosts from all around the world can upload their offer with photos, text and videos, located in their home towns, put a price on it and sell their activities via WhenInX. Users-guests can search activities by location or category, contact the host and buy the activity before they get there. I guess you all know the saying “When in Rome do as the romans do!” Well, what you can do when you go in a place called X? Use our app and find out!

Which target has WhenInX?

Every person that travels either business or leisure can be our user-guest, and there is high number of locals that offers activities. EU market over 500bilion euros.

 

How do you imagine the future of the company?

We believe that this app will change the way of travel. The same way AirBnB did for accommodation, Uber for taxi. Tourism as an industry is going towards individualism, people do not want to be put in a group and take them around with tour guides. They want to mix in the environment, they want to feel the city they visit, experience local things. On the other side the channels for offering these services are mostly offline and obsolete. Our marketplace will modernize and liberate the market, every single local that have something to offer can open a profile and sell his services.
