How Pheaks works

Guides for joiners, organizers, coordinators, and anyone curious enough to read past the Help Center. Updated 14 September 2026. Short answers still live in Help.

Pick a guide

Pheaks is a booking app for mountain hikes and local tours in the Philippines. It is live at pheaks.com. Joiners reserve a slot. Organizers run the day. Coordinators scan tickets at the jump-off. These pages walk through that with real trail-day scenes and live samples of the screens you will tap.

Curious
How it works
A Saturday on the trail, from Friday-night booking to Sunday certificates. Roles, money, and statuses, without the jargon.
Joiners
Book a hike
Account, Tourism Manifest, checkout, ticket, jump-off, and what happens after you summit.
Organizers
Run a listing
Apply, publish dates, assign coordinators, take walk-ins, complete the trip, print certificates.
Jump-off
Check people in
Scan a QR or type the code, collect the amber cash, and keep the tourism manifest honest at 3 a.m.
Nerds
Web app & API
Stack, trust boundaries, public URLs, and why Pheaks is not a partner REST API. No fee formulas. No ranking internals.

What these guides are not

They are not the Terms of Use, organizer terms, or cancellation rules. Those pages stay the contract. They also do not publish how Pheaks prices the convenience fee, how listings are ordered on the home feed, or other internals that would only help a copycat. You will see the same numbers a joiner sees at checkout. You will not see the machinery behind them.
