Maison Sport scores £3 million Investment
Snow sports online platform Maison Sport has completed a £3.1 million investment round.
The investment will fund expansion of its ski lesson offerings, which match skiers with personalised skiing and snowboarding tuition and experiences.
Maison Sport plans to boost collaboration with travel agents, and will onboard more agents.
It says it will be well positioned to meet the increasing demand from travellers seeking tailored winter sports experiences.
CEO at Maison Sport, Nick Robinson, said: “Our goal is to become the largest seller of snow sports activities worldwide within the next five years.”
This investment empowers us to scale our operations and bring more value to both the instructors and holidaymakers.”
“This investment will also create exciting opportunities for travel agents to partner with us and benefit from our commission and affiliated link programs.”
Partner travel agents can earn commission on every lesson booking through the platform.
This is done using sales agents accounts, via the affiliate programme or full API integration.
Previous investment rounds attracted funding from Gareth Williams, co-founder of Skyscanner and Kevin Byrne, founder and owner of Checkatrade.
Maison Sport was founded by ex-British ski team members and qualified ski instructors.
The Maison Sport marketplace includes more than 400 resorts and over 1,300 qualified instructors across France, Switzerland, Italy and Austria.
