Founded in 2017, Chkar.com aims to empower the people in Gilgit Baltistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to monetize their homes much like Airbnb and others. They are aiming to create the same culture in the beautiful tourist destinations of Pakistan. You can already book homes in more than 25 destinations in Pakistan or become a host on the platform if you have some place that you want to rent out to travelers.
