You gain insight

See where your guests go, what they love, and how Mooch is enriching their stay — real behavioural data, not guesswork.

Hyperlocal curation

Every suggestion is specific to your neighbourhood — bars, cafés, viewpoints and walks within minutes of your door.

Zero tourist traps

We only feature independent venues, so guests discover the real city. That reflects well on you.

📈

Real guest insights

Understand where your guests go, peak exploration times, and what experiences resonate — data you can't get elsewhere.

5-minute setup

No technical knowledge needed. We handle everything — just display your QR and you're live.

🌍

Growing network

Mooch is live across 20+ European cities and expanding. Your guests benefit wherever they travel next.

Free. Forever.

Our founding partners in each city get Mooch at no cost, permanently. No hidden fees, no bait-and-switch. We grow when your guests love what they discover.

Questions, answered

How much does it cost?

Completely free, forever for our founding partners. We're building our network in key European cities and the first partners in each city lock in permanent free access. No credit card required.

How long does setup take?

About 5 minutes on your end. Fill in a short form, we send you a print-ready QR code within 24 hours, and you're live. We handle all the curation.

Do my guests need to download an app?

No download needed. Guests scan the QR and the experience opens directly in their browser — instant, frictionless, no App Store required.

What data do I get about my guests?

You'll see aggregated insights: popular venues, exploration patterns, peak times, and how guests are engaging with the guide. All anonymised and GDPR-compliant.

What cities are you in?

We're live or launching across 20+ European cities including London, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Lisbon, and Paris — with more rolling out monthly.

Can I suggest local venues to include?

Absolutely. You know your neighbourhood best. We actively encourage partner input and review every suggestion from our hostel partners for inclusion.
