Step by step

How Vakay works

From your group's plan to a shortlist everyone can agree on — here's what happens at each step.

  1. 1

    Make a free account and tell Vakay

    Share your group's budget per person, dates, vibe (beach, city, adventure, or chill), and your must-haves and deal-breakers. Takes about two minutes.

  2. 2

    We match it, a person checks it

    Your plan is matched against trips our team has already researched, starting with any places you suggest. Then a person picks the three that fit best — where you'd stay, the dates, the price per person, what's included — and checks every price and link before you see it. It shows up in My trips within two days.

  3. 3

    Your group votes

    Share one link in the group chat. Everyone types their first name and picks a trip — no account needed for your friends — and you all see the same tally.

  4. 4

    You book the winner

    Each option has a link to book it. Nothing is booked until your group decides. Booking through Vakay itself is coming later.
