01
You’re planning a real group trip
A stag or hen weekend, birthday trip, golf weekend, festival crew, away day or city break all fit. Six to sixteen travellers is the sweet spot for this first group.
Founding crew applications open
VamoCrew private beta
Bring a real trip. Use the whole premium toolkit.
We’re inviting a small group of organisers to plan real weekends away with every VamoCrew feature unlocked—from the first vote to rooms, bookings and travel day.
Who we’re looking for
A crew with somewhere to go.
The best beta testers are organising a group trip in the next few months and are happy to replace scattered planning messages with one shared place.
02
You can test on iPhone
The first release is distributed privately through Apple TestFlight and requires iOS 17 or later. Invited crew can complete selected actions through secure browser links.
03
You’ll tell us what happened
We’ll ask for concise feedback after the crew joins and again once you have used decisions, tasks and expenses.
What to expect
Plan a real trip. Help shape what comes next.
Trip Control, rooming, shortlists, the booking vault, specialist playbooks and travel mode are ready to test. As a founding organiser, you may encounter rough edges and you’ll have a direct route to the team when you do.

Before you apply
Clear limits, from day one.
Will everyone in my group need TestFlight?
No. Organisers can share secure browser links for selected commitments, votes, tasks and paid-status updates. Crew members who want the complete planning and travel experience will need the iPhone app during the first beta.
What will the beta cost?
Nothing. Every feature is unlocked during the founding beta. We are testing a future £9.99 whole-trip upgrade, but payments are not enabled and invited crew will never be charged to participate.
Does VamoCrew take payments?
No. Expense features are an informal shared record. VamoCrew does not hold funds, initiate transfers or replace your group’s payment method.
Is my beta data private?
We use your data to provide and improve VamoCrew, with the safeguards and retention choices explained in our Privacy Policy. Please avoid adding passport details, payment card data or other sensitive travel documents.
Is a TestFlight place guaranteed?
No. This is a small founding group and invitations are released gradually. Applying puts your trip forward for review.

Tell us about the trip.
Include the kind of trip, approximate dates and crew size. We’ll reply from info@vamocrew.com with next steps if there is a place in the current group.
We save your application so we can review your trip and contact you about the beta. This does not subscribe you to marketing. See our Privacy Policy. You can also apply by email.
