How will I receive payments for the Expedia Group Affiliate Program?

Payments within the Expedia Group Affiliate Program are sent to the bank account you set up in your account. Note that you may see the name 'Partnerize' in your bank statements, which refers to the third-party vendor we use to process payments.

Where do I add I details for payment?
If your account was created after 23rd January 2024, you can add your payment details within the 'Bank details' section of your account. If your account was created before 23rd January 2024, you will need to login to Partnerize platform to provide your bank details. If all details are accurate, earnings associated with this account will then be sent to the bank account provided.
Where will commission payments be sent?
Payments will only be sent to the bank account you provide in the currency selected. Please ensure all details are accurate when filling these fields in, which may differ depending on the country and currency selected.
How much commission will I receive?

Commission amounts by brand site, country, and travel product, such as a hotel, flight, vacation rental, etc. For instance, you may receive different commission amounts for a completed hotel stay booked via Hotels.com compared to a completed car booking booked via Expedia.

You will find updated commission amounts within the Affiliate Dashboard, under Commission Terms.  

How does commission differ by country?

The commission rates as defined in the table within the Commission Terms page shows how commission rates differ by travel product, but not by country. Some travel products are available only on certain brands.

When do I get paid for a sale?

It's important to note that we can only pay commission for completed or consumed trips. For example, if someone books and pays today for a trip that starts in 6 months, you will be paid after the trip has been completed in 6+ months. 

We process payments monthly. Depending on the time of the month, it may take between 60 to 150 days after a trip has been completed for you to receive payment.
