The Process

How GearBook Works

From intake form to live catalog in under a week, with zero technical work on your end.

Fill Out Your Intake Form

Tell us your name, bio, certifications, and contact info. Then choose up to 8 products from our retail partners, gear you already recommend to your clients. Not sure where to start? Pick from one of our gear templates, curated lists that autofill your catalog's products to save you time.

The form takes about 10 minutes. You can include your own blurb for each product explaining why you recommend it.

We Build Your Catalog

Our team builds your catalog page at gearbook.shop/yourname within a few business days. Every product link is uniquely tracked to you, so every sale you make is credited back to your account.

Your page includes your photo, bio, certification, contact info, and all 8 products with images and your personal blurbs. Clean, professional, and shareable.

You Get a Login to Review It

Sign in with your Google account (or set a password) using the email you applied with. Review your catalog, check your shareable link, and make sure everything looks right.

If anything needs changing, you can request revisions directly through your Guide Dashboard, which you get access to after signing up.

Share Your Catalog

Email it to clients before or after their trip, post the link on Instagram, or share the QR code in person. The more you share it, the more you earn.

Most guides add their catalog link to their trip confirmation emails. Others post it to their Instagram bio or mention it during in-person sessions.

Earn From Every Sale

When a client clicks your link and makes a purchase, you earn 5% commission on the sale. Payouts go out monthly via PayPal or Venmo.

We send you a detailed monthly earnings report showing clicks, sales, conversion rate, average order value, and your payout amount. Full transparency, every month.
