Book & pay securely

Pick your dates, message the owner with questions, and pay through the app. Your payment is protected until pickup.

3

Pick up & ride

Meet up with the owner, grab the gear, and hit the slopes. Return when you're done and leave a review.

Listing Gear

1

Snap some photos

Take a few photos of your gear, add details like size and condition, and set your daily price.

Set your availability

Choose which days your gear is available and how you want to handle pickup — meetup, delivery, or locker.

When someone books your gear, you get paid directly to your bank account via Stripe. Simple as that.

Common Questions

The stuff people usually ask before downloading.

What if the gear gets damaged?

Owners set a security deposit when listing their gear. If something happens, the deposit covers repairs. Both parties document gear condition at pickup using photos, so there's a clear record.

How do payments work?

All payments go through Stripe — the same system used by Lyft, Instacart, and thousands of other platforms. Renters pay when they book. Owners get paid to their bank account after the rental is completed.

Is it safe to meet strangers?

All users sign in with Apple (verified identity), all communication happens in-app, and handoffs are confirmed through the app. We also have safety guidelines with tips like meeting in public places during daylight.

What does gswap take?

A flat 10% platform fee from each booking. That's it. No hidden fees, no surge pricing, no annual subscriptions. If you list a board at $40/day, you get $36 per day rented.

What kind of gear can I list?

Snowboards, skis, boots, bindings — basically any snow gear you'd take to the mountain. If it's in decent shape and someone would want to rent it, list it.

Where is gswap available?

We're starting in the Bay Area / Lake Tahoe corridor — the densest concentration of weekend warriors with garages full of gear. More regions coming as the community grows.
