The global network of travelers helping people
Add your route in seconds. People who need a hand along the way will message you and offer a reward: bring some documents, pick something up on the way, or help with another simple request.
You're flying for your own reasons. Someone else just needs something to end up in the city you're heading to. Usually it's something simple.
Pick up an envelope with documents and hand it over at the airport or in your arrival city. It's light and takes almost no space.
Sneakers, cosmetics, electronics: things that aren't sold or cost more in another country. You buy it in the store yourself, and the money for it is already reserved.
Someone flew off and left their apartment keys behind. You just bring the keys to where you’re flying anyway.
You always know what you’re carrying. You make the purchase yourself, and you get the documents in your hands. And only you decide which request to take.
Enter your cities and dates. It takes less than a minute.
Add up to 10 cities at once. We’ll automatically generate all possible trips.
People on your way can now find you and write to you. Get the app to chat with them, accept requests and get paid through Secure Deal.
Back to the homepageWhat you agree on is what you get. The requester pays the service fee.
The item price and your reward are already reserved. You never front money for someone else’s order blindly.
When paying in the app, the payment system verifies the requester. And if anything goes wrong, our support team helps.
No need to search or advertise. Anyone waiting for a trip on your route gets a notification.
Add trips early: many people look for routes long before the date.
You choose the requests, the reward and what you’re willing to carry. Posting a route commits you to nothing.
“I flew from the US to Spain, brought Amazon purchases for several people and earned $250 on a single trip. They got things they can’t order here, faster than any delivery.”How purchases work →
Four steps from posting a route to money on your card.
Enter your cities and dates. Every stop shows up in search.
People write what they need. Discuss the details and reward, then tap “Secure the Deal”.
The money is reserved upfront. Now you can safely buy the item or take the documents.
Tap “Report completion”. The requester taps “Completed”, and the money goes to your card.
Tips4trips was created and is built by us, Alla and the team. We travel a lot ourselves and made a service we use ourselves.
Not at all. You simply add a trip you’ve already planned. People message you, you pick a request that suits you and agree on the reward in the chat. Everything else, including payment, happens in the app.
Nothing. Posting is free, and travelers pay no commission: the whole reward is yours.
The requester pays for the deal upfront, before you go to the store: the money is reserved until the handover. If a dispute comes up, our support team helps sort it out. That’s why it’s important to agree and create the deal in the app.
You suggest and agree on the reward yourself. You can take several requests on one trip: for example, $250 for a single flight from the US to Spain.
As soon as it’s planned, even a year ahead. Many people look for routes early, and anyone waiting for your route gets notified right away.
Once the requester confirms the job is done, the money goes to your card.
Profiles are verified and every deal ends with a review. When paying in the app, the payment system verifies the requester, so you’re not dealing with an anonymous stranger. Since launch there hasn’t been a single fraud case.
Add your route: it’s free and takes a minute.
