The new Ski Club of Great Britain Members App is available now for Apple iOS and Google Android. To use, simply download, log in using the same details you use for the Ski Club website, and away you go!
To activate Pay As You Go Skiing, you will need to log in to the App and then scan the QR on each card. Cards are tied to the lead Member on a family membership, allowing you to control your children’s and freeze them if they get lost.
You will need to add payment card details in order to finalise activation of your card. This can be done under the “payment details” in the sidebar menu. This will be the card charged for any Pay As You Go Skiing you do. You don’t need to add a payment card if you don’t intend to use Pay As You Go skiing, however you won’t be able to access remote features of the card – such as freezing or cancelling it – if payment card details are not uploaded.
If you wish to add season passes to your card, you will need to take an ID photo.
Activated cards will appear with a green icon; those yet to be activated with an orange icon. When a card is lost or damaged, it can be frozen using the App; its icon will turn red.
Once payment details have been added and a card activated, Pay As You Go skiing will be the default payment option for all Pay As You Go skiing resorts – please make sure you freeze your card and/or remove your card from your lift pass pocket to ensure you are not accidentally charged twice when using other lift pass cards.
To use Pay As You Go Skiing, simply add a payment card, then get skiing at any of the above resorts! The Alto.Ski system will calculate the best rate for your day on the mountain based on the time you spent skiing.
Away from these resorts, any lift passes issued by a resort using Ski Data or Exxess Ski can be loaded onto your membership card. You don’t need to have added payment card details to the App in order to load standard lift passes onto your card.
When buying online, simple enter the long, 23-digit number you see on the back of your card when prompted; when completing the booking process you will be asked if you have a card or lift pass already – don’t for get to say yes!
The long number is formatted as such: 01-2345 6789 0123 4567 8901-2
Alternatively, simply present the card at a lift ticket office and they will be able to add your products quickly and easily. At some locations you can buy tickets using remote kiosks – when prompted, you can scan the QR code to add lift passes to your card.
Ski Data is the most common lift ticket system and can be found in a vast majority of resorts around the world; lift passes from Ski Data resorts can be added online or at the lift ticket office.
Some major resorts, however, use Team Axess instead; don’t worry, you can still use your membership card to ski here, you’ll just only be able to add lift passes by visiting the lift ticket window.
Membership cards that have been lost can be frozen – and unfrozen – via the App. You can also do the same with your family’s cards in case they are lost.
To order a replacement card, please contact the Ski Club directly, at ku.oc.bulciks@srebmem
Once activated, your cards will always default to Pay As You Go skiing in applicable resorts. Please ensure that only one card at a time is used as your lift pass and stored in your lift pass pocket accordingly, as you may be charged twice.
