The Affiliate Programme
  Q. What is the Africa Guide Affiliate Programme?
A. If you have a Web site, The Africa Guide Affiliate Programme is a way for you to earn cash, introduce your site visitors or email subscribers to the wide selection of travel packages at The Africa Guide, and be a part of the travel team that is building the largest Africa travel community. The Africa Guide Affiliate Programme compensates affiliates for completed bookings made as a result of enquiries made in our Africa Travel Center. You will receive payments for completed bookings where the client is recorded in our database as having originated from your affiliate links.

Its very easy! Sign up today and join us. We want you to be a successful Africa Guide affiliate, and we've taken steps to support you along the way. You'll receive quarterly commission payments, and you'll have the tools you need to maximise your effectiveness and satisfy your site visitors and email subscribers.

Q. What is a completed booking?
A. A completed booking is when a client has made an enquiry to a tour operator via our Africa Travel Center and gone on to make a booking for travel services supplied by that tour operator and then had those travel services supplied to them and that tour operator has paid The Africa Guide all commissions due for that booking.

(enquire - book - travel - our commission received)
