Airbnb-flavored Aviasales

Hello! Most recently, we published a post about our SDK and Travelpayouts affiliate program. Judging by the reviews, this information has been of interest to many users. Therefore, today we decided to prepare a real surprise for those who work with our affiliate program (or just think). Airbnb , the world leader in holiday rental rental, has joined us on exclusive terms! All the details under the cut.

Until recently, Travelpayouts affiliate program was focused on our projects - Aviasales and JetRadar (for tickets) and HotelLook (for hotels). Now the partners of the affiliate program have access to the inventory of the popular Airbnb service and other advertisers. So now webmasters, mobile application developers and all those who work with tourist traffic can receive up to 40% of the commission from each reservation of apartments around the world. And if you sign up for a Habraslink , then before June 1, you will receive 70% of the commission.

This is not the first, but definitely the hottest offer from third-party services, ” says the head of Travelpayouts, Ivan baidin Baidin. “ Last year, proposals from companies such as VisaToHome, Tripster, Economybookings and others were added to the inventory of our Aviasales and Hotellook *. For each reservation, the affiliate receives a fixed fee (for example, $ 15 for renting a car) or a percentage of the order . ”

* Before Airbnb, the offers of the following companies were available: liters, intui.travel (insurance and transfers), level.travel (booking of tours), Cherehapa (insurance), domoy.telecom (travel sims), sputkin8 (excursions), the full list is here .

Today Travelpayouts is more than 50,000 webmasters working with tourist traffic. Partners are available links, booking forms and other tools that allow you to make money on the Internet. Remuneration is paid for each purchase made. For the entire existence of the affiliate program, its participants were paid more than 152 million rubles.

Small life hacking for travelers: even if you don’t want to make your application or website, you still need to register in the affiliate program and buy tickets / book a hotel through it - this will allow you to return some of the funds. For example, an average weekly trip to Greece for two will cost thousands in 50, of which approximately 2500 can be returned in the form of a commission.

More detailed calculation from real life
Many travelers have bank cards that help them earn miles for their purchases and flights. True, with the new course of these same miles, a “free” ticket, say, to Simferopol will cost at least half a million rubles.

Similarly arranged travel affiliate programs. With the only difference that instead of virtual miles, you get cash money, which is credited for all expenses associated with your journey.

Consider how affiliate economics works on the example of the travelpayouts.com program. Many sites use it, for example, Artemy Lebedev's travel blog or travel.ru portal. By registering in the program, you will receive a unique link. When buying a ticket, you need to type in the browser not just, say, www.aviasales.ru , but your own type address http://www.aviasales.ru/?marker=79656 . The marker at the end allows you to track purchases and credit commission.

Now let's calculate: a ticket found for two people through the search engine to Thessaloniki and back will cost 24,402 rubles. The same ticket on the airline's website costs 300 rubles more. To the resulting savings, add about 500 rubles commission, which you will return for the purchase. Thus, on the tickets you have already earned 800 rubles.

Now let's do housing. The program Travelpayouts have offers from the Airbnb service. You will receive 40% of the service fee. Again, you need to use personal links in your office to get you counted. Weekly living in an apartment by the sea costs about $ 357, but it will cost you $ 19 less.

Insurance will bring 140 rubles, visas with home delivery of 520 rubles, also do not forget about the excursions for which you are entitled to 6% of the order value and other services. Putting it all together, we get the budget for a week-long trip to Greece for two: 55,480 rubles. This amount includes travel, accommodation, visas and insurance. Partnership payments in this case will be approximately 2500 rubles (enough for a good dinner with wine). Thus, the cost of summer vacation by the sea is approximately equal to 53 thousand. The commission from Travelpayouts can be received on your bank account or electronic money, you decide.

For the purity of the experiment, we compare the total cost with the proposal of the largest operator in Greece. The cheapest week in June costs 59,213 rubles, but you will need to add the cost of visas to this price. Of course, the agency will do everything for you, no need to choose tickets and apartments, but the money saved will be the money earned. And if you can save on a vacation, we do not mind at all.
