When will the annual contributions be charged?

The annual contributions apply per company and year and are levied for the first time at the time of the official classification.

How are the annual contributions billed?

The calculation is made annually by means of a digital invoice sent to the contact person registered in the programme, based on the billing address provided at registration.

Will the amount be adjusted if companies change levels?

The degressive pricing model is also intended to be an incentive to change levels. If a company changes levels within the programme, this will be taken into account in the following annual invoice.

How can companies benefit from a price reduction?

If your organization is a member of one of the programme's partner organizations, you will benefit from a 20 % price reduction. Direct membership in one of the following Swisstainable partner organizations applies: 

GastroSuisse, HotellerieSuisse, Netzwerk Schweizer Pärke, Parahotellerie Schweiz, RDK, Schweiz Tourismus, Schweizer Alpen-Club SAC, Schweizer Reise-Verband, Schweizer Tourismus-Verband, Seilbahnen Schweiz, Swiss Snowsports, Verband öffentlicher Verkehr, Verband Schweizerischer Schifffahrtsunternehmen, Verband Schweizer Tourismusmanager:innen, zooschweiz

Is there a group discount?

If you make a consolidated registration of several companies, you will receive a price reduction of 10 %. 

Important: The price reductions for members and groups can be combined. However, the price reduction for members will only be credited once (even if a company has a direct membership with several partner organizations at the same time). 

What requirements do I have to meet to benefit from a group discount?

In order to benefit from a price reduction for groups, you must register several establishments in a consolidated manner via the Swisstainable office. We are already aware of classic examples from system catering, holding structures or hotel groups here.

Do you run a company and you would like to register several establishments in your business structure with Swisstainable? Please do not hesitate to contact our office (swisstainable@stv-fst.ch). We will be very pleased to assist you with the registration process.
