No sign-up fee and no monthly fee

Ryde earns only on bookings.

How guests pay

Every tour is paid by card when the guest books, and the guest chooses how:

In full

Ryde holds the money and pays you the price less its commission, with your other payouts.

A booking fee, the rest on the day

The fee is Ryde's commission. The guest pays you the rest on the day, and each booking shows what to collect.

A guest who could not pay by card pays you the whole price on the day. If you decline or call a tour off, for the weather or anything else, the guest's money goes back to their card.

How guests pay

What you get

  • Your tours beside every visitor's taxi and rental, in the app and on ryde.bz.
  • Requests you confirm or decline, and a day's list of who is coming.
  • Each departure with the places it has left. Hold places, add your own groups or call one off.
  • Your own refund cut-off, agreed with Ryde, shown to guests before they pay.
  • A private boat priced by the trip, with its captain.
What you get

What you need

  • A Belize Tourism Board tour operator licence, in date.
  • A trade licence.
  • Your business registration.
  • A phone with WhatsApp, and your own photos of each tour.

Insurance for your tours and guests is your own choice: Ryde does not require it, and you can add it if you hold it.

You can sign up without them and send them when you are ready. You take a photo of each paper and Ryde reads the details from it. A person at Ryde checks them before your tours go live. A tour is unlisted the day one of your papers lapses.

Questions

What does Ryde charge?

15% of each finished tour, or the rate you and Ryde have agreed in writing. There is no sign-up fee and no monthly fee.

Who sets the prices?

You do, per person and all in. Guests see the total for their group before they book.

When do I get my money?

A guest who paid the booking fee pays you the rest on the day. For a guest who paid in full, Ryde pays you after the tour with your other payouts, to the account you add in Earnings.

What if the weather turns?

You call it off, and the guest's money goes back to their card. On a private boat the captain decides whether the sea is safe.

Can I copy my tours from my website?

Yes. Give Ryde the address, and it reads your tours into a list you check. It does not copy your photos: you add your own, and a tour stays paused until it has a price and a photo.

Do I need the app?

No. You can run your tours from ryde.bz on any phone or laptop. The application is on ryde.bz too.
