What your guests get on Matey

Matey is free for backpackers: the whole working-holiday year, organised. This is what your common room can point to instead of answering the same questions every day.

Farm ratings & pay reports

Guests rate the farms they work and share what they were paid, so the next one knows before taking the job.

The 88-day tracker

Log every shift, count down to the second-year visa, keep payslips and proof in one place.

Jobs & instant alerts

Farm and hospo roles pushed to guests the moment they're posted, including yours, free.

Harvest calendar

What's picking, where, and when, so guests plan the next block of work before this one ends.

Rides & trips

Who's driving north, who needs a lift: the community sorts its own transport.

Events & mates

Your weekly events promoted in-app, and a friend-finder so no one arrives alone.

Your founding-hostel deal

Free forever

We're inviting 20 founding hostels to join free, for good. No cost, no catch. Matey is funded later by verified service partners (tax agents, insurers), not by you.

Your page, already built

This is it. Approve it in 30 seconds. No forms, no setup.

Your events, promoted in-app

Trivia nights, BBQs, live music, pushed to travellers in your town.

Your guests' questions, answered

Where's the work? How does tax back work? Who's driving north? All in one place, with your name on it.

Your numbers, monthly

A simple email: how many travellers saw and tapped your page.

Like what you see? Make it yours.

Claiming takes 30 seconds and it's free forever. We verify you manage Backpackers Shack, then you can edit anything, add photos, and post events.

I agree to the Partner Terms

We'll email a one-tap confirmation to your hostel's address on file. Prefer we tweak the page first? Just reply to our email.
