For crewing companies
Post your vacancies where seafarers are already looking
crewings.me indexes the vacancies seafarers search every day. Listing your company and your openings costs nothing — you pay only when you want to reach candidates first.
Free to publish · No card required · Your company page never expires
What your account plugs into
Three steps to your first application
1. Create your company
Register in the app and fill in the profile — name, fleet, license, contacts. After a quick manual review, your company page goes live in the crewing directory in all 12 languages of the site.
2. Publish your vacancies
Add each opening with rank, fleet, vessel type, salary and joining date. Vacancies are free and unlimited, and every one of them gets its own indexed page.
3. Reach candidates
Seafarers apply to you directly. When you want to make the first move, unlock a candidate profile with a credit — Premium adds credits every month and Partner unlocks the whole database — or promote the vacancy with a campaign.

Connect your own ATS
Max is the API plan: your own system publishes vacancies and pulls applications back, with no one retyping anything. Partner includes it too. A sandbox that behaves like production comes with the plan, so you can wire up the integration without touching live data.
Vacancies in both directions
Import openings from your system and publish them, or read what is already live. A repeat import updates the same vacancy instead of creating a duplicate, and a retried request never creates it twice.
Applications in your pipeline
Read applications, move them across the hiring board and write statuses back. Ask for everything that changed since your last sync, or let the events come to you.
Webhooks instead of polling
A new application, a status change or a withdrawal reaches your endpoint in seconds — signed, timestamped and retried, with the delivery history kept for you to check.
Limits you can plan a sync against
200 requests a minute, 20,000 a day and 620,000 a month on Max. A bulk import carries up to 100 vacancies in one call, and every response says how much you have left.
A sandbox that behaves like production
A twin company with its own key: publishing, applications, the board and webhooks all work, and its vacancies never reach the site, the search or the Telegram channels. It comes with the plan.
Written to be coded against
An OpenAPI 3 spec with Swagger and ReDoc — import it straight into Postman or generate a typed client from it. Keys are scoped to what you allow, you rotate or revoke them yourself, and every call lands in your own access log.
The API comes with Max and with Partner, both billed yearly. Documentation, keys and the sandbox open in your company account as soon as the plan is active and your company is approved.
Or pay per candidate
Buy a pack of credits and spend one to unlock a candidate. The bigger the pack, the less each candidate costs.
Larger volumes go lower still — $5 per candidate from 1,000 credits. Credits from a pack are valid for a year; the credits a plan includes renew with each billing period.
Promote a vacancy
Two ways to push one vacancy further: a package on the site, or the same package plus paid posts in the Telegram channels seafarers read.
- 30 days on the site
- In the Telegram channel for your fleet
- Tracking links
Priority
- Telegram posts: 4
- Pinned for 24 h
- Featured for 14 days
- Priority support
Urgent
- Telegram posts: 8
- Pinned for 72 h
- Featured for 30 days
- Urgent badge
- Priority support
One-time price per campaign, in USD. The vacancy itself stays free and published whether you run a campaign on it or not.
A campaign posts your vacancy in the one channel its fleet belongs to. Telegram advertising adds the other channels, post volume, pinning, the slot above the feed and posts written by the channel itself — bought per post, without registration.
- from $50 per post
- $149 for all 5 channels
Questions crewing companies ask
Does it cost anything to publish vacancies?
No. Creating a company profile and publishing vacancies is free and unlimited, with no card required and no time limit — your company just goes through a quick manual review first. You pay only for candidate access, Premium or a campaign.
What exactly does payment unlock?
A verified company sees the full candidate profile once it unlocks it with a credit, or right away on Partner.
How much does one candidate cost?
Ten dollars for a single credit, nine in a pack of ten, and down to five when you buy a thousand at once. Credits from a pack are valid for a year; the credits a plan includes renew with each billing period.
What does a campaign actually do?
It keeps one vacancy on the site for the length of the package and posts it in the Telegram channel of its fleet. The larger packages add more posts, feature and pin the vacancy, and the top one marks it urgent; every package tracks clicks through its own links. Advertising across every channel is sold separately, per post.
Which plans include the API?
Max — the plan built for the API — and Partner, which includes everything Max has. Both are billed yearly. Your production keys work for as long as the subscription runs and stop when it lapses, with nothing to revoke by hand. A sandbox that behaves like production comes with the plan and stays open, so you can wire up the integration without touching live data.
What does Partner add on top of Max?
You unlock every candidate profile without spending a credit, the API moves up a tier, and you get a dedicated manager. Everything Max does, Partner does too — the API included, along with everything in Premium.
Do you take a commission on hires?
No. Seafarers apply to you directly and there is no fee on the contract, the placement or the salary.
Can I cancel?
Yes. A card subscription can be canceled at any time and runs to the end of the period you paid for; other payments do not renew and simply run to the end of the period. Either way, your company page, your vacancies and any credits you still hold stay as they are.
