What members gain
Our cooperative partners provide members with access to: – Lower-cost international mortgages and loans – Tailored insurance solutions for vacation rentals – Cross-border banking and tax optimization structures – Fiscal and legal advisory services for tourism businesses
Members can access IFPRO’s Virtual Administrative Professional, a smart digital service that assists with accounting, bookings, marketing, and customer communication — saving time and reducing administrative costs.
Each Chapter negotiates local deals — from energy contracts and maintenance to cleaning, linen, and marketing services — and IFPRO Global arranges worldwide agreements (e.g. with booking platforms, software providers, and banks).
Sharing Members receive access to webinars, case studies, and insights from leading tourism experts — helping them grow smarter and more efficiently.
As part of a cooperative, every member has a voice. IFPRO represents the collective interests of small and medium-sized hospitality entrepreneurs when negotiating with suppliers, regulators, and global partners.
The membership model
IFPRO is not a typical business — it’s a cooperative.
That means the members own the cooperative.
How it works
1. Sign up online — It takes less than 2 minutes.
2. Get verified — IFPRO confirms your hospitality business or ownership.
3. Join your local Chapter — Automatically connected to your regional community.
4. Access benefits — Start saving money and accessing services immediately.
You’ll receive a personal login for the IFPRO Member Portal — where all local and international deals are listed and updated regularly. This model ensures transparency, fairness, and long-term sustainability.
Why It’s Free?
Because IFPRO’s strength lies in its members, our growth is our mission. The larger the cooperative, the stronger our purchasing power — and the better the conditions we can negotiate globally. Instead of charging fees, IFPRO earns revenue through partner commissions and service agreements with suppliers — never from members.
