Local growth. Transparent impact. Shared opportunity.

Partners & Community

Tourism should strengthen the place that makes the journey possible

Care Collective connects travellers with regional hospitals, care professionals, transport providers, restaurants, wellness services, guides, accommodation partners and other local businesses — without charging those partners listing fees or sales commissions. Instead of extracting value from the destination, the network is designed to keep participation free and allocate at least 10% of the revenue generated through Care Collective to a transparent regional Community Fund.

This is a common-good-oriented approach to sustainable tourism built into the model from the beginning, not a donation added afterwards. Partners can voluntarily raise their contribution and communicate that commitment openly to guests. In this way, local providers gain fair access to new demand, travellers can see how their spending creates wider value, and a growing share of tourism income can support medical access, mobility, community infrastructure and other clearly documented regional needs.

Care Collective is free for partners and does not charge or receive commissions.

The minimum Community Fund contribution is 10% of the revenue generated through Care Collective. Partners may choose a higher percentage and make that additional commitment visible to guests. The contribution remains connected to the destination; it is not income for Care Collective, a hidden fee or a sales commission.

Use the impact calculator to see how quickly individual contributions can grow into measurable regional value.

Why Care Collective was built

Care Collective was shaped by experiences in which access to treatment after an accident depended on whether private insurance or immediate payment could be confirmed. In regions that welcome international visitors, local residents may still face serious barriers when they need medical treatment, transport or practical support themselves.

That contradiction should not simply be accepted. Tourism creates substantial economic value. Hospitals, hotels, transport services, restaurants, care providers and local businesses all benefit from international demand. Care Collective wants to create a transparent bridge through which part of that growth can also improve access and opportunity for the people who live in the destination.

The aim is not charity added after the business model. Community value is intended to be part of the model from the beginning.

A platform designed to work from both sides

Travellers need reliable information and coordinated support. Regional providers need visibility, fair access to international demand and a system that does not remove value through conventional commission structures.

Clearly presented local medical, care, mobility and lifestyle services

More information about accessibility, languages and practical limitations

Opportunities to develop new accessible and care-aware services

A transparent way to participate in the social development of the destination

How the community impact model works

The value created through each journey should remain visible — from the traveller’s booking to the local provider and from participating partners into a regional Community Fund.

Travellers use local services

Guests spend money on medical care, assistance, food, transport, wellness, accommodation and local experiences.

Regional providers receive real demand

Local businesses, institutions and freelancers receive new customers without paying Care Collective a commission.

Partners contribute at least 10%

Participating partners commit to placing at least 10% of the revenue generated through Care Collective into the regional Community Fund. They may voluntarily contribute a higher percentage.

The value returns locally

The fund can support medical access, mobility, community infrastructure and other clearly defined regional needs.

No commission extraction

The partner contribution is not transferred to Care Collective as sales commission.

Regional transparency

Contributions and supported projects should be documented for the relevant destination.

Local decision-making

Regional needs and credible local partnerships should guide how the fund is used.

Illustrative calculation

How quickly community value can grow

Even a comparatively small number of supported travellers can create meaningful regional value when the contribution is calculated transparently.

Example: 200 guest stays per month

200 guest stays during one month

€100 average local spending per guest and day, excluding flights

15 average days per stay — equal to €1,500 local spending per guest

€300,000 regional revenue generated through these stays

10% minimum Community Fund contribution

Potential monthly Community Fund €30,000 Equivalent to €360,000 over twelve months

Illustrative planning note

This calculator is not a guaranteed forecast. It excludes flights and shows a possible regional Community Fund based on the selected guest volume, local spending, stay length and confirmed partner contribution.

Adjust the scenario

10% is the required minimum. Participating partners may voluntarily choose a higher Community Fund contribution, and guests may also add a voluntary contribution. Use the controls below to try different scenarios and see how guest stays, local spending, stay length and a higher overall contribution can change the regional impact.

Monthly guest stays 200 guests

Local spending per guest and day €100 / day

Average stay length 15 days

Community Fund contribution 10%

Monthly impact for your selected scenario at 10% €30,000

The monthly total reflects all selected guest stays, daily local spending, stay length and the chosen Community Fund contribution.

Your impact with one guest at 10% €150

Potential Community Fund per year at 10% €360,000

Other Partners

This category is prepared for hotels, airlines, institutional partners, education partners, assistance networks, technology providers and organisations that support the wider Care Collective system.

Important booking distinction: Hotels, flights and complete journey components are not standalone app add-ons. They are arranged through a Care Collective journey, the Journey Builder or a concierge-led request. Flights may be excluded from a planned journey, and concierge support may also be selected without flights. A complete Care Collective journey cannot currently be added spontaneously after travelling independently to the destination.

Confirmed general and institutional partner profiles will appear here.

A listed partnership does not automatically mean that every service can be booked separately through the app.

Regional development

Community projects in development

Partner services create immediate value. Community projects are intended to turn part of that growth into infrastructure, employment and long-term regional opportunity.

Return to partner categories

Project in development

The Right Side Project is being developed in Klong Muang as a locally connected hospitality and community location. The concept combines a supported and more accessible hotel environment with regional businesses and shared services.

Planned areas include physiotherapy, bakery, barber, beauty, wellness and fitness. The wider aim is to create local work, strengthen local ownership and connect tourism income with services that remain useful for the surrounding community.

Mobility concept in development

The Shared TukTuk Network is intended as a regional mobility concept connecting travellers, residents, drivers and local destinations through clearer routes and more predictable access.

The project can create additional opportunities for local drivers while helping visitors and residents reach services, community locations and everyday destinations more easily.

Transparency & profile standards

How partner information is managed

These are supporting details about the directory rather than partner offers. Open the relevant section to learn how profiles are structured and reviewed.

One consistent profile system

Partner profiles are currently added and reviewed manually. Every profile will follow the same basic structure so information remains comparable, accessible and easier to understand.

Later, the same fields can be connected to the Care Collective app and backend. A provider can submit or update information, but publication should still require review before the profile becomes visible.
