The Partner Playbook

10 ways to earn with
The Booking Advisor.

You don’t need a following or a marketing budget. You need a link and a little initiative. Here are ten concrete ways partners earn — some passive, some active, all real.

01

Sign up one hotel near you

20% of platform fee — forever

Walk into a hotel or homestay you know. Show them they're losing 15–25% to Booking.com. When they list, you become their Rep — and earn 20% of the platform fee on every booking they take, for as long as you're their Rep. One good hotel can pay you monthly for years.

02

Share trip links with friends planning holidays

Your full rate on the trip margin

Everyone you know travels. When a friend mentions a trip, send your Plan-a-Trip link. If they book a concierge trip, you earn your commission rate on the trip margin — and concierge trips are large bookings.

03

Recruit the restaurant you eat at

A cut of every redeemed voucher

Your favourite café or restaurant wants more diners. Tell them about the voucher program — they pay only when a real guest redeems. Recruit them and you earn an ongoing cut.

04

Put your link in your bio

60-day attribution on everything

Linktree, Instagram bio, WhatsApp status, email signature. Use the general link — anyone who clicks is tracked to you for 60 days, whatever they do later.

05

Help a friend become a host

Rep cut when they start selling

Know someone who cooks, shoots photos, runs yoga, or knows a town cold? They can host a paid experience and keep 75%. Recruit them and earn a Rep cut on their bookings.

06

Post one reel about a destination

Per-booking commission

Film a place you love. End with: 'planning a trip here? link in bio.' The Plan-a-Trip flow does the selling — you just drove the click.

07

Pitch tour operators in your town

20% of platform fee on their sales

Boat operators, trek guides, workshop hosts — they all have empty slots. Free distribution to every partner hotel's guests is an easy yes. Recruit them, become their Rep.

08

Run a WhatsApp broadcast

Compounds across your list

Use the ready-made WhatsApp messages in your marketing kit. One broadcast to a travel-interested list can land multiple sign-ups in an afternoon.

09

Recruit other affiliates

5% of their earnings — forever

Bring in another affiliate and you earn 5% of everything they ever make, on top of your own earnings. Build a small team and it compounds.

10

Be the travel person in your group

Trips + listings add up

Every friend group has one person people ask about travel. Be that person with a link. Over a year, the trips booked and businesses listed through you add up to real, recurring income.

Pick one. Start this week.

Sign up free, open your marketing kit, and you’ll have ready-to-send messages for every one of these in two minutes.
