Put every member on the national park map — and earn from it.
Chambers, visitor bureaus, Main Street programs and business associations list their members in the National Park apps and on our park websites for $10 a business each month. You decide what your members pay.
How the partner program works
You bring the members you already have. We put them on the map and handle the technology. Nobody on your staff has to answer a login question.
Create your partner account
Two minutes. If your organization is among the 2,200 park-area chambers and associations in our directory, your parks are filled in for you.
Add your members
One at a time, or upload the member spreadsheet you already keep. We place each business on the map and file it under its nearest park.
Activate the partnership
One monthly bill: $10 for each business you list. Add or remove members whenever you like, and the bill adjusts itself.
Send the invitations
One button emails each member a personal link to claim their listing and add photos and hours. No passwords. Replies come to you, from members who already know you.
What your members get
Their business, in front of travelers who are planning a trip to the park next door — on every app and website we run, and on the ones we add next.
- A pin on the GPS park mapIn the park's own app, where one exists, and in the new National Park Getaways app for all 63 national parks (coming to the App Store).
- A business page in their categoryWhere to stay, eat and drink, tours and outfitters, shops — with photos, hours and a booking button.
- A page of its ownOn NationalParkGetaways.com, in its park's business directory. Regional sites like Visit-Southwest.com are next.
- Trip plansIn the apps, where travelers build their days around the park.
- A listing they controlThey update it themselves, any time. Changes go live without waiting for anyone.
- Your name beside theirsEvery member listing carries your organization's logo.
Live today: NationalParkGetaways.com and the Acadia, Arches & Canyonlands, Joshua Tree and Saguaro apps.
Your logo on every member's listing
Upload your logo once in your dashboard. It sits on the header photo of every member's listing and links to your website, so travelers see who stands behind the businesses in your town.
Each member's description also ends with a line crediting you: “Proud member of your organization.” Change your logo and every listing updates with it.

Questions
Who pays, and how much?
Your organization pays $10 a month for each business you list, on one monthly bill. Your members pay you whatever you decide, or nothing if you would rather offer the listing as a member benefit.
Can we charge our members more than $10?
Yes. Your price is yours to set, and the difference is your organization's revenue. We never bill your members or contact them about money.
What do our members have to do?
Nothing, to be listed: we build each listing from the details you add. Each member also gets a personal link to claim their listing and add photos, hours and a description. There is no password to set or forget.
What if a member never answers the invitation?
Their listing stays live with the information you gave us, and you can keep editing it for them. Once a member claims a listing, they decide what it says.
How does the bill change when we add or remove members?
It updates by itself. Add twenty members mid-month and your next invoice includes a prorated charge for them; remove one and their listing comes down and the bill drops.
Is there a contract?
No. Cancel any time from your billing page. Your members stay listed until the end of the month you have paid for.
Which parks are covered?
All 64 national parks today, with monuments, historic sites, seashores and the rest of the 400+ park units being added. We file each business under the park it is nearest to. A member near a unit that doesn't have its page yet waits, and isn't billed, until it does. Members near parks with their own app — Acadia, Arches & Canyonlands, Joshua Tree, Saguaro and more on the way — are in that app as well.
We're a statewide association. Does that work?
Yes. Choose the parks your members are near (or every park in your state) and each business goes under the nearest one.
Who answers our members' questions?
Invitations come from your organization, and replies go to you. Most questions are answered by the listing editor itself; anything technical comes to us at tom@natpark.app.
What do you do with our member list?
We keep each business's public listing details and the email you give us for its invitation. We don't sell or share them, and we only email your members to send their listing link.
I run one business, not an association.
You can list it yourself on the business dashboard. Or ask your chamber to become a partner.
Your members could be on the map this week.
