Why 1,150+ independent shops make the difference

They compete. You save.

Alpy.com is Europe's largest independent online ski rental marketplace. Founded in December 2006, we connect over 3.2 million skiers with 1,150+ independently owned rental shops across 800 resorts in 10 countries. We own none of these shops — which means every one of them has to earn your booking on price and quality. That's the whole trick. It's also how customers save up to 65% compared to walk-in rental prices.

  • Independently owned ski rental. Genuinely competitive.

    Most rental chains steer you to their own franchise store, whether or not it's the best one around. Alpy.com works differently. Every shop in our network is independently owned. Partner shops offer a strong selection of skis and snowboards from leading brands. Well-maintained gear supports safety, comfort, and performance for skiers at every level. They set their own prices. They compete against each other, not just against us. That competition is what keeps prices low and service sharper — no franchise loyalty required.

  • Online ski rental vetted, not just listed.

    Anyone can put a shop online. We check first. Every shop on Alpy.com is verified before it goes live — availability, quality across key products, helmets, accessories, and location (ideally close enough to walk to the lifts in ski boots without regretting it). Good ski shops also have experts who help you choose the right gear for your level, needs, and overall experience. If a shop doesn't meet the standard, it doesn't make the cut. Boots are the most important part of ski equipment, so expert fitting matters for comfort and control. Vetted shops should also be ready to handle exchanges during your trip if something doesn't feel right. Over 3.2 million customers have booked through Alpy.com since 2009, and the 12,000+ Trustpilot reviews at 4.7/5 back that up.

  • 800 resorts. 10 countries. Your choice.

    From country to country across the Alps and Europe, Alpy.com already covers leading resorts. Wherever you're headed, there's a good chance Alpy.com already has a verified shop near the slopes. That's not a chain's footprint stamped out the same way everywhere. It's a network built resort by resort, shop by shop, for people heading to the mountains, over 20 years.

FAQ

How many shops does Alpy.com work with?

Over 1,150 independently owned rental shops across 800 resorts in 10 European countries.

Does Alpy.com own the rental shops?

No. Alpy.com is a marketplace — every shop in the network is independently owned and operated. We own none of them. That independence is exactly why shops compete on price and quality instead of coasting on a franchise name.

How does Alpy.com select its partner shops?

Every shop goes through verification before it's listed: location (ideally near the lifts), equipment quality, and availability are all checked. Shops that don't meet the standard aren't listed.

How do I know the shops are good?

Alpy.com has 12,000+ verified Trustpilot reviews at 4.7/5 — Excellent. That rating reflects the shops in the network, not just the booking platform.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Yes. Every booking through Alpy.com includes free cancellation until the day before pick-up — no conditions, no exceptions.
