Commission is your share of every confirmed sale. At Sales.Travel it's set up transparently: the rate depends on the product you sell and grows as your sales volume grows. Below we break down how this works in practice and what shapes your final percentage.
You earn commission on confirmed sales. The base rate differs by product — tours, hotels, flights, insurance — and rises as your volume grows. Exact percentages are agreed individually at onboarding; accruals and history are shown in your account. Not signed up yet? Start with our guide on becoming a partner.
01 / BasicsWhat commission is earned on
Commission is earned not for the request itself, but for a confirmed and paid sale. Until the booking is confirmed by the supplier and the client has paid, the accrual is treated as pending rather than locked in. Once it's confirmed, the amount goes into your balance and becomes available for payout on schedule.
- Confirmation. The booking is accepted by the supplier and not cancelled.
- Payment. The client has paid for the order in full.
- Completion. For some products, commission locks in after the service is delivered — check-in or departure.
02 / ProductsWhy the rate depends on the product
Different categories carry different margins, so the partner rate varies from one to another. As a rule, package products and hotels leave more room for commission, while flights and insurance leave less — that's a feature of the market, not a platform policy. We don't publish fixed percentages: they're agreed when you sign up.
03 / VolumeHow the rate grows with volume
The more confirmed sales you make, the higher your percentage becomes. The rate is reviewed against your accumulated turnover over a period: once you reach the next threshold, you move up to a higher tier. It's cumulative — the increase holds as long as you keep your volume up.
Starting tier
At onboarding you get a base rate for each product, set out in your contract.
Building up volume
Every confirmed sale adds to your qualifying turnover for the period.
Crossing a threshold
Once you reach the next threshold, you move to a higher rate on the relevant products.
Reviewing your terms
Consistently high volume is a good reason to discuss individual terms with your manager.
04 / TrackingWhere to see your accruals and rate
Your current rate for each product, your accumulated turnover and the status of every accrual are shown in your partner account. It also shows which sales are already confirmed and how much is ready for payout. Details on the payout schedule are covered in a separate article on payouts.
- Your current rate and how much turnover is left until the next threshold.
- Accrual status: pending, confirmed or payable.
- Your sales history, with commission tied to each order.
05 / FAQFrequently asked
What percentage will I get?
Your exact rate depends on the product and your volume, and is agreed individually at onboarding — it's set in the contract and visible in your account. There's no single fixed percentage that applies to everyone.
When does the commission become finally mine?
Once the sale has been confirmed and paid, and for some products once the service has been delivered. Until then the accrual is marked as pending and can be reversed if the order is cancelled.
Will my rate drop if my volume falls?
Your tier is tied to your turnover over a period, so a significant drop in volume may trigger a review. A steady stream of sales keeps you on the higher tier — check the details with your manager.
