Step by step

  1. Copy your TeliportMe MLS linkOpen your tour in the editor, choose the Share tab, then MLS. Copy the link. It looks like teliportme.com/mls/tour/abc123 and opens an unbranded version of the tour. Sharing needs a paid plan, from $19 a month. Trial tours stay private.Leave the domain on teliportme.com. MLS rules usually don’t allow agent branding in tour links.

What buyers will see

According to a REALTOR.ca notice quoted on an industry forum (around 2017), YouTube, Vimeo, iGuide and Matterport tours appear in the banner beside the photos, and other tours open from a “Virtual Tour” icon. Confirm it on your live listing.

The link opens the full tour, like this example. Buyers drag to look around and tap the arrows to move between rooms.
