Gathern

Gathern (جاذر) is the first licensed peer-to-peer vacation-rental marketplace in Saudi Arabia, founded in Riyadh in 2016 and licensed by the Saudi Ministry of Tourism. Through its iOS, Android, and web apps, travelers book short-term private accommodations directly from local hosts — chalets, apartments, villas, farms, resorts, rest houses (istrahat), camps, caravans, and rooms — across more than 200 cities and provinces in the Kingdom, including Riyadh, Jeddah, Taif, Al Khobar, Dammam, Mecca, Medina, and AlUla. The platform lists tens of thousands of units, has served more than five million users, and holds a leading share of the alternative-hospitality sector in Saudi Arabia. Backed by 500 Global, STV, Sanabil Investments (a Public Investment Fund subsidiary), and others, Gathern raised a $72M Series B and is preparing for a Tadawul listing. Gathern operates as a consumer marketplace app and does not currently publish a public developer API surface; this profile tracks its public web properties for the API Evangelist network.

Gathern is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Travel, Hospitality, Vacation Rentals, and Short-Term Rental.

Gathern’s developer surface includes engineering blog, signup flow, and 5 more developer resources.
