What is the Tripadvisor Affiliate Program?

Partner with the world's largest travel site — and help your users discover great ideas for their trips.

Our affiliate program allows you to leverage the Tripadvisor brand to enhance your content, earn a steady revenue stream on hotel traffic, and provide users access to rich content spanning 795 million reviews and 1.4 million places to stay.

Work with the world's largest travel site and earn a minimum 50% commission

Why join?
Minimum 50% commission
Link to specific hotels on Tripadvisor. Earn at least 50% of the commission we receive from our hotel booking partners when users come to Tripadvisor via your trackable affiliate link, and then click out to our partners.
No hotel booking required
Your users may still be in the research and planning stages — so there's no need to push for a sale. You still get paid when users click out to our hotel booking partners, regardless of whether or not they book.
Multi-touch attribution model
We offer a 14-day referral window. If your users return to Tripadvisor within those 14 days and click out to our partners, you'll get credit and earn commissions — even if they come back on a different device or via other channels (e.g. banners and ads).
Why join?
Seemlessly embed links
There's no need for sponsored posts with Tripadvisor. Weave our links into your content where it feels natural — in a way that fits and complements your own work.
Inspire your users
Leverage Tripadvisor's vast content — covering 2.3M accommodations, 5.0M restaurants, 1.1M travel activities, 500 airlines, and 70k cruises — to help users discover amazing ideas for their own trips.

How do I earn commissions?

When a user comes to Tripadvisor via an affiliate link on your site and subsequently clicks any of the hotel booking links on Tripadvisor, they are sent on to our booking partners and you've secured your commission.
