This is how your business appears to travelers on Nepgram.

Sound familiar?

Guides decide where groups stop

Your beds depend on relationships and luck — not on the quality of your lodge.

Invisible before the trailhead

Independent trekkers plan their stops in Kathmandu and Pokhara — or at home, weeks earlier. You are not part of that plan.

Empty beds off-season

Shoulder-season trekkers exist — they just have no way to find and book the lodges that are open.

How it works

1

List free — or claim your lodge

We have mapped lodges along popular trek routes. If yours is one of them, claiming takes an SMS code. Otherwise, list from your phone in minutes.

2

Appear on the route map

Trekkers planning your route see your lodge on the map, with photos, rooms, and dal-bhat on the menu.

3

Confirm and get paid

Once booking opens, requests reach your phone or WhatsApp. Confirm, welcome the trekkers, and your payout settles to your bank.

What you get

On the trek-route map

Your lodge appears where trekkers actually plan — on the route map, day by day.

Rooms, dorms, and meals

Private rooms, dorm beds, campground spots, meal menus — list your lodge the way it really is.

Runs from your phone

Bookings and messages arrive in the app and on WhatsApp. Update availability whenever you have signal.

Seasonal pricing

Peak-season and off-season rates, set once — the calendar applies them for you.

Bilingual listing

Write in Nepali or English — trekkers see your lodge in both, with Bikram Sambat dates alongside.

Paid in rupees, to your bank

Trekkers pay Nepgram online at booking; your payout settles in rupees to your bank — no cash chasing on the trail.

Sell to Nepal and to the world

A local business can usually reach only the people who walk past it or the agent who sends them. On Nepgram your listing faces Nepali travelers and international visitors at the same time — without a second website, a foreign agent, or an advertising budget.

English for the world, Nepali for home

Nepgram is fully bilingual and defaults to English — the language most international visitors plan in — while Nepali travelers read the same page in Nepali. You write your listing once, in whichever of the two you are comfortable with.

Prices they understand

Visitors can see your prices in eight major currencies at Nepal Rastra Bank reference rates — so a traveler in Tokyo or Paris knows what your service costs without doing the maths.

Foreign travelers plan early

International visitors commit weeks or months ahead. That fills your calendar before the season starts, instead of leaving it to whoever walks past your door.

Two markets, one listing

Nepali travelers and international visitors do not travel in the same weeks. Serving both from a single listing means the quiet gaps in one market get filled by the other.

Reach without a marketing budget

Reaching foreign travelers normally means advertising abroad or handing a large cut to an overseas agent. Being on Nepgram costs you nothing until a booking is confirmed.

You stay a local business

No foreign bank account, no currency handling, no English-only website to maintain. Nepgram carries the international side; you run your business the way you always have.

The trekkers walking your route are overwhelmingly foreign visitors who chose their overnight stops before they landed in Nepal. Being readable and bookable in their language is the difference between being on that plan and being walked past.

No investment. No risk.

No listing fee. No monthly fee.

Creating and keeping your listing on Nepgram costs nothing — there is no setup, subscription, or marketing charge.

You set your prices — always.

Prices, discounts, and availability stay in your hands. Change them any time from your phone.

Keep your walk-in business.

Nepgram is an extra sales channel, not a replacement. Your regulars, agents, and walk-ins stay yours — we never ask for exclusivity.

We earn only when you earn.

Nepgram adds a commission only when a confirmed booking happens. You see the exact terms during registration, before you accept anything.

To be straight with you: Nepgram is preparing to launch and we are awaiting our government licence. Listings and partner onboarding are open today; online booking and payments switch on at launch. That is exactly why joining now is worth it — partners who list during onboarding are live and discoverable from the first day travelers can book.

Individual owners are welcome — ward registration is enough to start, with a one-time verification of your details before the listing goes live.

Common questions

What does it cost to join?

Nothing upfront. There is no listing, setup, or monthly fee. Nepgram earns a commission only when you receive a confirmed booking — the exact terms are shown during registration, before you accept anything.

Is Nepgram live yet?

We are preparing to launch and awaiting our government licence. Partner onboarding and listings are open now; online booking and payments switch on at launch. Listing during onboarding means you are visible from the first day travelers can book — there is no cost to being early.

I heard my lodge might already be on Nepgram. What do I do?

We have mapped lodges along popular trekking routes so trekkers can plan their stops. If your lodge is one of them, claiming it takes minutes: verify your phone number with an SMS code and the listing becomes yours to manage — photos, prices, and availability included.

Internet is patchy up here. Will this work?

Yes. Everything runs from your phone, and bookings also reach you on WhatsApp. Update your availability whenever you have signal — trekkers book days ahead, not minutes.

Can I keep selling the way I do now?

Yes. Nepgram never asks for exclusivity. Keep your walk-ins, agents, and repeat customers — Nepgram brings you travelers you were not reaching before. We only ask that bookings made through Nepgram are honoured and completed through Nepgram.

Do I need to handle foreign currency or international payments?

No. Travelers browse your prices in their own currency at Nepal Rastra Bank reference rates, but you list and are settled in Nepali rupees to your Nepali bank account. You do not need a foreign account, a card machine, or any international payment setup of your own.

Ready when you are

Signing up takes minutes and costs nothing — and the earlier you are listed, the more of the launch you are part of.
