Record agent commission

When a travel agent ("agent") sells tour operator's and/or DMC's tours or services, tour operators and/or DMCs usually pay the agent a commission, a percentage of the booking value.

TripMapper for Business lets tour operators and/or DMCs record the agent commission owed on each booking, so they can see what has been agreed with each agent and keep margins and payments accurate.

To record agent commission, first create an agent:

  1. Click your avatar in the top right of the screen and select 'Settings.'

  2. In the 'Business' tab click 'Agent Commission.'

  1. Click "Add Agent."

  2. Add the agent name, commission percentage and then click the "Create" button.

  3. The agent has now been added.
