    Booking.com is a popular name in the travel industry.

    They also have an affiliate partner program that is open for anyone with a blog/website, an app, or a travel agency. As long as you can offer the best choice of accommodations, this program is for you.

    Highlights:

    Free & easy sign-up process.
    Offers search box, deep linking, and banner integration options.
    They have an offer-based, commission split model.
    Minimum payout €100.
    Payout mode is PayPal (create a PayPal account).
    You can integrate Booking.com’s search box on a WordPress blog by using this official plugin.

      Yes both.hotels.com and. Booking.com seem to be pretty good ones.
      I have heard about travelpayouts lately so wondering if there are others that pay more or faster

    Hotels.com.

    I may also like to add HotelsCombined.com as well if you don't mind.

    Having joined this program for over 5 years.

    You can find some good travel related advertisers in CJ, Shareasale and Linkshare. CJ and Linkshare have maximum numbers of advertisers in travel related niche.

    I would say booking.com is likely more trusted and well known, with that being said you should always split test between offers

    I think that I can give you great information related to best travel affiliate programs online. You will not believe that I used almost every travel affiliate. HotelsCombined, Booking.com, Dohop, Travelpayouts, Agoda.com, EAN, Hotels.com, TripAdvisor and finally Skyscanner. Sorry, the list has been long but I used all.

    Do you know? I hate Skyscanner as a travel affiliate programs.

    Although I could not do better in travel affiliate niche but still having two live sites which are using hotels combined and Travelpayouts affiliate.

    I have written a detail blog post on all of the above travel affiliate programs.

    You will also know that why I hate Skyscanner as an affiliate program.

    I learned one thing very clearly that don't be a part of every affiliate program in travel affiliate marketing. Choose only one or two.

    Let me know further.

    Thank you
    Pawan
