    Getting started as a guide

    Set up your profile, connect payouts and schedule your first tour.

    1. Sign in

    Sign in with Google, Apple or an emailed link, or with a password once you have set one. A password is optional and can be added later in Account.

    2. Build your public profile

    Open Account, then Open my profile. Your public page is also your editing page when you are signed in as its owner. Change your name, bio, pictures, web links and voice greeting directly on the page.

    Tap See public profile at the top to check exactly what visitors see, then Back to editing to return. The Profile builder chats above your live page and fills in drafts as you talk. Drag the divider to give the chat or page more room. Help me write this uses the same visitor-focused writing rules. Clean up fixes typos, with Revert to original to undo the correction.

    Under How would you describe yourself?, choose any combination of Experience Creators, Experience Seekers and Business Partners and their subcategories. These public labels describe you, not permissions or eligibility for referral commissions.

    The floating Save and Discard controls appear when something changes. Photos and voice greetings also remain drafts until Save. Leaving offers Save, Discard or Keep editing. The builder chat lasts while the profile page is open; your published profile stays saved to your account.

    3. Connect payouts (only for paid tours)

    Free tours need no payout account. To sell tickets, open Earnings and tap Get Booked, Get Paid. See "Payouts and the Stripe steps".

    4. Schedule your first tour

    Open Schedule and tap New tour. Pick a date, a start time (15-minute steps), the place, a picture, and a price or Free.

    5. Save it to your Tour Bank

    Saved tours can be scheduled again on any day with all details filled in.
