Base is a utility for backpackers and budget travelers in Australia and New Zealand. It aims to provide deals and booking capabilities for over 2,000 locations across the two countries. Travelers can find nearby discounts, save on activities and lodging, and even find job opportunities to fund their adventures.

Deals galore

Base offers budget-conscious travelers a convenient way to find deals and save money at thousands of locations. Once users find their location, the app displays all available deals within a 100km radius so travelers can discover savings on the go and plan their next adventure.

However, the app has limited functionality for those not staying at Base hostels. It primarily shows deals near Base locations, restricting its usefulness for travelers staying elsewhere or in more remote areas. That said, an expansion in offerings may make it more useful for a wider range of travelers.

For budget backpackers

Base aims to provide budget-friendly tools for backpackers. While the app currently focuses primarily on those staying at Base hostels, its offerings may expand over time. For budget-conscious travelers planning a trip to Australia or New Zealand, the app is worth downloading to maximize their travel without breaking the bank.
