A trip can carry more than a list of recommendations.

Founding creator pilot
Your first trip is built with us, not handed off to a help article.
We are starting with a small cohort so we can work beside each creator, learn where the tools need improvement, and publish work both sides are comfortable attaching their name to.
- 20 minutesKickoff: choose the route, audience, free or premium format, and the material you already have.
- 2-4 hoursYour expected work for a first trip when you already have the itinerary, notes, or published recommendations.
- 45 minutesJoint review: check the route, preview, attribution, pricing, and publication settings together.
- About 15 minutesPost-publication upkeep when a meaningful place, price, or recommendation changes.
Economics that stay on your side
Creators are the reason anyone buys anything here, so the split is deliberately lopsided in your favour.
85% to you, rising to 90%
Pass $500 in completed, non-refunded sales in a calendar month and the higher share applies to that whole month — including the sales that got you there.
No fees to list
No monthly fee, no listing fee, no charge for having a quiet month. We earn only when you do.
You set the price
Price each trip yourself. Change it whenever you like — a change only ever applies to new buyers.
An illustrative month
Sell a $49 trip 20 times in one month: $980 collected, $882 to you — the 90% rate, because that month passed $500.
How it works
-
Apply once
Link your public profile and tell us where you travel. We read every application by hand, and you can return to your account to see its status.
How applications work -
Build the trip properly
Write the itinerary you would give a close friend — the specific restaurant, the hour to arrive, the detour that is worth it and the one that is not.
What makes a trip worth buying -
Set your price
Use $19 to $79 as a starting range, then price for the depth and specificity of the work. Day one stays public as the sample; everything after it unlocks on purchase.
Listing a trip -
Get paid, keep it current
Earnings appear in your dashboard as trips sell. Post updates when something changes on the ground, and follow the payout instructions provided during onboarding.
Earnings and payouts
Your work is protected by the product, not just the policy
Nobody can resell your trip
A trip forked from yours can never be listed for sale. That is enforced in the data model, not left to a rule in the terms.
Buyers get what they paid for
A sold itinerary locks permanently, so no one can quietly rewrite what a buyer purchased. Updates ride alongside it instead.
Attribution follows your work
When someone publishes a fork of your public trip, a credit back to you travels with it — and doubles as a route to your paid trips.
Buyer privacy, creator numbers
You see how many people bought and what you earned. You never see who they are — and neither does anyone else.
Questions
How much do I keep from each sale?
You keep 85% of every sale. Once your completed trip-sale earnings, after full refunds, pass $500 in a calendar month, your share rises to 90% for that entire month, including the sales before you crossed it. There are no monthly fees and no listing fees.
When do I get paid?
Eligible balances are paid on Platix's published payout schedule, with a $20 minimum. Anything below the minimum rolls forward. Approved creators receive payout instructions during onboarding.
What do buyers see before they pay?
A free preview: the title, overview, trip length, the whole of day one, the places you stay day by day, and up to three highlights from the later days. The rest unlocks after purchase.
Can I edit a trip after it sells?
The itinerary locks permanently once a trip has sold, so buyers keep exactly what they paid for. You can still post updates that every buyer sees, change the price for new buyers, stop selling, or publish a revised version as a new trip.
Can I sell a trip I forked from someone else?
No. Trips forked from another person's trip can never be sold, however much you change them. Forking is for your own personal customization. To sell a route inspired by someone else's, build it as an original trip.
Who can become a creator?
While Platix is small we approve every creator by hand. We look for a public profile and real first-hand knowledge of the places you want to sell. A published Platix trip helps us review your work, but founding-pilot applicants can build that first trip with us. Follower count matters less than having actually travelled the route.
Start with one trip
Pick the route people already ask you about. Write it properly once, and let it work while you plan the next one.
