About
Traverse Community is a portal for those working in the sports & outdoor sector to access a collection of brands at preferential industry rates. It’s a curation of multiple industry purchase programmes accessible via one login.
This portal is dedicated to professionals who work in the sports & outdoor industries. This includes:
- Agencies – Athlete / Marketing / PR & Comms
- Brand Teams
- Retail HQ Teams & Senior Management

- Core Media
- Qualified Instructors & Guides
- Event Organisers
- Sports & Outdoor Charities
- Professional Athletes / Ambassadors
Being a member of our community is a perk reserved solely for those working in the sports & outdoor industry. Verified members benefit from exclusive discounts and rates that aren’t widely available.
We ask that our members share the love and advocate membership with other industry professionals but not to brag about the levels of pro-deals on offer.
As industry professionals our opinions on kit and the brands we choose are respected. Where and when possible, encourage others to support our brand partners and specialist sport & outdoor retailers.
Individual members that work directly for brands are actively encouraged to sign-up their own brand too.
It’s a closed community contributed to, and driven by the industry.
Everyone who requests to join the Traverse Community are manually verified against:
- Work email
- Linkedin profile
- Company website
- Type of company
- Role within the company
- Business card upload
Each application is reviewed, approved or denied on an individual basis.
Traverse works with your existing affiliate platform or can be powered by avelon network – the specialist sports & outdoor industry affiliate partner and go-to platform for many of the largest brands in the sector. Find out more about avelon network here.
Via our affiliate & brand partners we:
- Keep an eye on all orders. We work closely with brands to track and monitor all purchases.
- Ask brand partners to report on suspicious, bulk or repeat order patterns.
- Zero tolerance on those who break the rules. Those in breach will be kicked out immediately.
- Encourage the use of complex, unmemorable alphanumeric codes.
- Limit value of codes & generate single-use codes.
- Update codes every 30 days or more frequent basis.
We very much welcome businesses, brands & organisations who wish to onboard their whole team as an employee perk.
