Every price shown here is the price the booking flow charges. Annual plans are twelve months paid up front, less 15%. Prices exclude VAT.
2026 to 2027 season rates
Rates are benchmarked against ski and travel publishers such as skiresort.info, OnTheSnow and Snow Forecast, then set below the market while our audience grows. All prices exclude VAT and are quoted in pounds sterling. Euro and dollar billing available.
Every paid package is a subscription and renews automatically, monthly or annually, until you ask us to cancel. Resort spotlights and resort sponsors are priced per resort, so a booking covering several resorts is the sum of each resort's own rate. You need a Slope Scout account to book, so you can see your adverts and their status any time.

Flagship resort pricing
The two resort tied products, the resort spotlight and the resort sponsor, cost 50% more on a flagship resort, meaning a resort with international name recognition and the search demand that comes with it. Bookings covering several resorts are priced resort by resort and added together, so a mix of flagship and standard resorts totals correctly.
Flagship resorts: Chamonix, Cortina d'Ampezzo, Courchevel, Kitzbühel, St. Anton am Arlberg, St. Moritz, Val d'Isère, Val Thorens, Verbier, Zermatt.
The list is reviewed each spring and will move to audience data once we have a full season of it.
Country takeover pricing
A country takeover runs your leaderboard above the fold on every resort page in one country, so it is priced on how much of the directory that country is. Austria, France, Switzerland, Italy hold the most resorts, at £1,100 a month or £11,220 a year. Every other country is £600 a month or £6,120 a year.
Priced below the majors
Established ski portals sell sponsored content from around £3,000 a resort. We sit well under that while our audience builds, so early partners lock in the lowest rate they will ever see.
Intent, not just impressions
Readers arrive comparing resorts and checking snow, days or weeks before booking. That is why sponsorships and spotlights are priced on placement value rather than raw volume.
Seasonal, like the market
Paying for twelve months up front saves 15% against the monthly rate on every placement, and country takeovers are priced by how many resorts that country actually has.
Rates are reviewed each spring against traffic. Agency commission 15% where applicable.
