Got Questions?
What is the TourRadar Side Hustle Program?
It’s a flexible way to earn extra income by helping people book unforgettable adventures on TourRadar. You recommend trips, help the traveler book, and earn. It’s that simple.
Who can apply?
Anyone who loves travel. You don’t need to be an influencer—just someone who’s passionate about helping others explore the world.
Do I need to pay to join?
Nope, joining the program is completely free—there are no fees or subscriptions. Just sign up and start earning.
How much time do I need to invest?
That is totally up to you. You can do it alongside your full-time job, between gigs, or just on weekends. There are no minimums.
1. Find the trip and select a departure date.
2. On the booking page, make sure you're logged in. Check the top right corner for your initials and the headset icon—this confirms you're logged in and ensures you’ll receive your commission.
3. Review all trip details, including the dates, locations, tour type, language, number of spaces left, deposit amount, and the operator’s terms and conditions.
4. Select the number of travelers. You’ll immediately see a price breakdown, including your commission.
5. Enter the traveler details. Some trips may ask for additional information or allow you to choose accommodation options.
6. Choose how you want to pay. You can:
- Use a designated credit card (ideal if you’ve already collected payment)
- Use any credit card (great if you’re booking with the traveler in person)
- Generate a secure payment link to send to your travelers so they can enter their details and pay directly
7. If you use a payment link, the traveler will see your name and a message confirming you’re their travel advisor. Your commission remains hidden.
8. The traveler can choose to pay in full or in installments (available if the trip departs in more than 65 days). Installments will be automatically charged bi-weekly.
9. After payment is complete, a confirmation page will appear. All booking details will be sent directly to you, and the booking will show up in your advisor portal.
10. TourRadar will not contact your traveler—everything is managed through you.
How do commissions work?
You can earn up to 75% of the booking commission. We charge a small fee to negotiate commissions with operators, provide customer support, invoice operators, handle payments, and ensure you're paid promptly.
How do I share a trip with someone?
1. Sign up
2. Click the “Share with client” button on the tour page
3. You’ll receive a custom link (without commission info), perfect for sharing via email, text, or socials
How do I talk to the tour operator?
On any tour page, hit the “Ask a Question” button to message the operator directly. You can ask about itineraries, availability, or anything else travelers might want to know. Learn more.
When will my commission be paid?
As part of the TourRadar Side Hustle Program, after you have made your first booking, you will be prompted via 2 emails to set up your TourRadar Wallet.
Your commission will be deposited automatically into your TourRadar Wallet 1 business day after your traveler’s adventure ends. You can withdraw your commission at any time. Learn more.
Can I split the payment between travelers?
Yes! The lead traveler must pay the initial payment (deposit) with the card. After that, you can divide the remaining balance or assign amounts for each traveler to pay to complete the payment for the trip. Learn more.
How can I recommend a personalized trip?
When browsing trips, filter by “Personalized.” This option allows travelers to customize their itinerary based on their preferences, such as adding activities, upgrading accommodations, or adjusting meal options. Please note that customization is tour-dependent.
