Skip the ticket office. Go straight to the slopes! Alto.Ski lets you load lift passes onto any compatible ski card from your phone or, in selected resorts, ski first and only pay for the time you ski (based on your first and last lift entries). How it works: 1. Add a ski card: scan an Alto.Ski card (or any compatible card you already have) in the app. 2. Choose your resort: • Prepay resorts: load single or multi-day lift passes to your card in seconds • Pay as you ski resorts: we’ll automatically bill you at the end of the day for the right ticket (hourly / day / multi-day), based on your first and last lift entries. (Skiing consecutive days? We automatically adjust your total so it matches the equivalent multi-day pricing) 3. Head straight to the slopes! No subscription. No hidden fees. Manage everything in one place — including family and friends’ cards under a single account. Your passes (and ski history in pay-as-you-ski resorts) are always visible in the app. You can also arrange ski hire, insurance and lessons in advance, and browse recommended hotels. Need a ski card? No problem! Order one through the Alto.Ski app and we’ll post it to you, or pick one up in resort at one of our partner hotels (listed in the app). Pay as you ski resorts • Livigno • Madonna di Campiglio (incl. Folgarida–Marilleva & Pinzolo) • Skiworld Ahrntal (Klausberg & Speikboden) • La Thuile – La Rosière (starting from La Thuile) • Aprica Prepay resorts • Montgenèvre • LAAX Coming soon (prepay) • Alpe d’Huez • Les Deux Alpes • Chamonix Mont-Blanc Questions? Message our friendly support team in the Alto.Ski app. See you on the slopes!
