Monark × Endorphine : two years of partnership in service of an economy that works for everyone
For over two years, Monark Solutions and Endorphine have shared much more than a business agreement. They share a conviction: money should flow where it matters, stay here, and benefit those who keep our communities alive.
A partnership born from a shared vision
Over two years ago, Monark Solutions became an official partner of Endorphine. Not because it was a good business opportunity. But because both organizations believe in the same fundamental idea: when Quebec businesses thrive, the whole community comes out stronger.
Endorphine is an all-in-one management, booking, and online rental platform designed specifically for outdoor leisure businesses in Quebec. Monark, for its part, is a payment solutions provider that believes every dollar saved on processing fees is a dollar that stays in the local economy. Together, we asked ourselves: what if we went even further?
What Endorphine does -- and why it matters
Endorphine is Quebec's answer to a problem faced by hundreds of outdoor businesses: foreign management tools, data leaving the province, and customer experiences that don't reflect the reality of life here.
Founded by Jean-Sebastien Darveau and Pascal Girard, the platform is now used by more than 250 outdoor stations across Quebec,with nearly 285,000 annual users. From regional parks to ski resorts, adventure centres, ZECs, and festivals, Endorphine covers the full spectrum of Quebec's outdoor leisure industry.
What sets Endorphine apart is its all-encompassing vision: it's not just a ticketing tool. It's a 360-degree solution covering reservations, equipment rentals, accommodation, customer data management, and even artificial intelligence to forecast visitor traffic up to 14 days in advance.
Ticketing & online reservations
Your customers book easily, without waiting in line. Your welcome experience is smoother, your management simpler.
Equipment rental
Optimal resource planning for bikes, kayaks, snowshoes. Less overbooking, more efficiency.
Integrated accommodation (PMS)
From booking to check-in, everything is managed within a single, coherent platform.
Data & artificial intelligence
Visitor traffic forecasting at 80% accuracy over 14 days. Better planning, better management.
A 100% Quebec-built tool. Unlike foreign platforms that collect your data elsewhere, Endorphine keeps all your customer and operational data right here in Quebec. As co-founder Jean-Sebastien Darveau explains, that data stays here and remains available to their clients.
Financial redistribution: how it works in practice
This is where our partnership takes on a unique dimension. At Monark, we believe a business partnership should benefit everyone -- not just the two companies signing the deal. That's why we put in place a simple, concrete financial redistribution mechanism.
Every merchant who works with Monark through the Endorphine network contributes to a positive cycle: a portion of the revenue generated is redistributed directly to Endorphine, which can in turn reinvest it for its clients -- its partner stations, its users, its ecosystem.
We don't believe in one-sided partnerships. When our merchants save money, when Endorphine grows, when outdoor stations thrive -- the entire community benefits. That's what a true circular economy looks like.-- The Monark Solutions team
The circular economy, in practice
This concept comes up often in our conversations at Monark -- and it's not just marketing. It's an operating principle we apply concretely in every one of our partnerships.

They save on processing fees -- on average, 90% of our clients pay less than with their previous provider.

Better platforms, better experiences, more efficient operations -- and a stronger local economy.
Money stays here, in Quebec
Instead of flowing into multinational systems, every dollar circulates within our local ecosystem. And the cycle starts again.
Why this model matters to us
We live in a world where large foreign platforms capture most of the value created by local entrepreneurs. Payment processing fees often end up in accounts in the United States or Europe. Customer data lands on servers abroad. And businesses here end up financing growth elsewhere.
Monark was founded to reverse that dynamic. Not by preaching -- by acting. By building partnerships like the one with Endorphine, where every transaction, every dollar saved, every dollar kept in Quebec contributes to a virtuous cycle.
Two years of partnership, one conviction strengthened.
Working with Endorphine means choosing a Quebec-built platform that understands the reality of the outdoor industry here. It also means contributing, with every transaction, to a business model where everyone wins -- the merchant, the platform, and the community.
What comes next?
We're proud of what we've built together over two years. And we're only getting started. Monark continues to expand its network of ethical partnerships in Quebec -- partners who, like Endorphine, put people before numbers and believe that business can be a driver of the common good.
