Professionals and dive / verticality centres (diving, climbing, caving, canyoning…) benefit from special offers depending on the products and manufacturers.

Important: by requesting a B2B account you agree to our B2B General Terms and Conditions of Sale — please read Section 3 – Conditions applicable in Business to Business. EN: Sales general conditions

To register as a professional, follow these steps:

  1. Create your account and confirm your e‑mail. Always use the first and last name of the legal representative (owner). Accounts opened under a trade name only will be closed. Confirm your e‑mail using the link we send you — all orders, invoices and messages are sent to this address, so make sure you can access it. (How do I create my account on the site?)
  2. Open the professional application. Once logged in, go to My account → “Become a professional”.
  3. Fill in your company details. Enter your registered office (head office) address — this becomes your billing address — your EU intra‑community VAT number, and your SIREN if you are a French company. Your VAT number is checked automatically against the official EU VIES database (and the French public register for the SIREN).
  4. Upload your documents and enter their expiry dates (PDF/JPG/PNG):
    • Professional liability insurance (RC Pro) — mandatory,
    • Professional card / qualification,
    • for a company outside France: your business‑registration document (Kbis or your country’s equivalent).
  5. Submit. Your account is set to “Pending validation”. Our team reviews your file and the automatic checks, and activates your professional account — usually within a few working days.

Once your account is validated: your professional prices apply automatically; payment is by bank transfer (the IBAN is shown at the end of your order and e‑mailed to you); and if you hold a valid intra‑EU VAT number, cross‑border EU orders are invoiced VAT‑free (verified at each order, with the verification date shown on your invoice). French professionals are always charged French VAT.

Keep your account active: your insurance (and professional card) must remain valid. We remind you before expiry. Without up‑to‑date insurance, your professional status is suspended and orders cannot be shipped until you upload a renewed docu ment from your account.

⚠️ Ordering before validation: if you place an order before your account has been validated, VAT is charged and cannot be refunded afterwards. To benefit from the exemption, please wait until your account is validated.
