Trampolinn is a revolutionary home swapping community that works through an innovative points system. Its members earn points when they receive other users at their homes, which they can exchange for free nights of accommodation wherever and whenever they want. Every accommodation has a nightly-based value in points depending on what’s available. Basically our members exchange nights receiving each other !
Its concept, in-between other major platforms as Airbnb (but free), Couchsurfing (but it offers a much wider offer of accommodation as members can offer not only a couch but also a private room and even an entire house) and last but not least, it overcomes the hustle of reciprocal exchange posed by traditional home swapping platforms.
The network has welcomed 22,000 members and 10,000 available places since March 2014 in 2800 cities and 130 countries.

Traveling with
Trampolinn has let us
experience Berlin in a
very authentic way
and meet interesting
people. We’ve
invested the saved
money in food and
entertainment!
I had a great stay and
felt right at home
staying in Barcelona,
experiencing the day
to day life and culture
of my host
We were hosted in a
beautiful Parisian
apartment, very warm
and welcoming,
nothing to do with a
cold hotel room, we
really felt at home.
Very nice French
family, polite, kind and
respectful. They took
good care of my flat,
you can trust them.
The exchange was
flawless, the
apartment nice and
convenient. I got a
much better taste of
Lyon staying at
someone's house
rather than at a hotel.
