Expedia has launched its Travel Agent Affiliate
Program (TAAP) in Malaysia.
Through this new service, travel agents
will now have access to Expedia's extensive global inventory and
can earn commissions on hotels, dynamic packages and activities.
Agents
who sign up with the programme will be able to directly access
Expedia's comprehensive inventory of close to 145,000 hotels
worldwide. They can also use the familiar and user-friendly
Expedia platform to check availability of hotels, activities and
flights, and make bookings in real time, while earning competitive
commissions of up to 10% on hotels and activities, and 1.5% on
flights when booked as part of a package.
Through
Expedia's TAAP, travel agents will be able to enjoy an efficient
service which provides flexibility in the entire reservation and
payment process. Members can also take full advantage of Expedia's
exclusive support line dedicated solely to supporting the needs of
travel agents, newsletters, deals, promotions and
other valuable tools aimed at helping travel partners provide the
best possible service to their clients.
“Expedia is
committed to providing the most comprehensive, efficient and
flexible service to our customers and partners. Our Travel Agent
Affiliate Program has been extremely successful in Europe,
America, and Asia Pacific, and we are very excited to bring it to the travel agent community in Malaysia,” said Charee Guico, Travel
Agent Distribution Manager Southeast Asia. “We recognize
that offline agents are a critical part of the travel landscape,
and TAAP provides the perfect way for Expedia to work with this
community.”
Expedia’s Travel Agent Affiliate
Program was first launched in Italy in 2002 and has since expanded
to the rest of Europe, America and Asia Pacific. In Southeast
Asia, TAAP was first launched in Singapore in June 2011. The
programme currently has 3,000 partners in the Asia Pacific.
To celebrate the launch of TAAP in Malaysia, Expedia is
offering a bonus of MYR300 for travel agents who sign up with the programme and make their first booking of MYR3,000, from now till
4 January 2012. Terms and conditions apply.
