Our Affiliate Partners earning straightforward and flat 55% commission on revenue (on the amount paid by customer), generated by visitors from their websites.

In example, if a visitor came from your website or blog where our link or banner is placed and along the next 30 days made a booking for a 100.00 Eur, then you earn commission of 55.00 Eur.

That makes TripsPoint Affiliate Program really different from other affiliate programs in the travel industry where competitors advertising a 50% commission, but they're setting very high minimal sales level per month to get these 50%, so usually you're getting something between 10-20%. Moreover, sometimes your earnings burning, if you didn't reached a minimal sales level in some period. Things are positively different at TripsPoint:

- You are getting simple and flat 55% commission - no matter what's your sales level.

- You can earn and accummulate your commission unlimited period of time until you reach 100.00 Eur to get payout.

- We use the most advanced tracking system not requiring adding an ID to the link or code, it because we identify a visitor from your website or blog by domain, and not by tracking ID, so our links and banners are looking as a normal and natural links and not an affiliate links with ID. That not just makes it more natural for your website visitors, but also rises your conversion rate.

*Sometimes there's higher commission of 65%, if you registered with a Special Invitation Code issued by our Affiliate Partner Network administrator, if the administrator believe our link or banner must be placed at your webste or blog.

How my visitors are identified and tracked without my affiliate ID in the links and banners?

The visitor referred through TripsPoint affiliate link or banner is recognized by the most advanced and safe method known as direct tracking. With the direct tracking HTTP_Referer information sent by the browser. It is the address of the page (if any) which referred the browser to the destination page. Briefly, when a visitor clicks a link on or banner on the affiliate’s page, the HTTP_Referer will be the URL address of affiliate’s page.

Our system will then check this page in our affiliate partner database to identify if the page belongs to an affiliate, and it will then assign that person the referral (and click) starting tracking the visitor for 30 days period.

This method is browser dependent, so it is reliable 90-99% of the time. All modern browsers send this information, and with the advantages mentioned below you are absolutely safe placing affiliate links at your website or blog.

Benefits of the direct tracking method:

- Visitors won’t know they are clicking on an affiliate link. Many people are not so keen on clicking a link that they recognize as an affiliate link, because it shows AID (affiliate ID code). If you use this kind of affiliate links iwith affiliate ID in URL of your blog or website, visitors will know that you earn commissions, if they click these links, so they will be more skeptical of clicking on a link. If you'll use TripsPoint links and banners with our advanced direct tracking method, no one will know that the links are affiliate links, it looks as absolutely natural link.

- Visitors will not damage or remove the affiliate ID parameters from the URL. There are people who don't like to purchase through affiliate links, even if there are no disadvantages to them. Those people would rather copy the URL to their browser and remove the affiliate ID parameters. Using our direct tracking method, you don't need to worry about that, because there's simply nothing to remove.

Can I add my Facebook or Twitter page as Affiliate Website?

No, the system wouldn't accept subdomains or folders and always count the root domain. It means you must own your domain like 'somedomain.com', but not like 'blog.somedomain.com' or 'somedomain.com/blog'.

It is very important you are domain owner and you are able to confirm that by adding owner verification code to your website, if it required!
