    please explain

    How does  your affiliate program work?

    Re: please explain

    You signup, install code on your website and start making money.  That is generally speaking of course.  Let me know if you have any particular questions and I will try to answer.

    Does it work like Amazon's affiliate program?

    Re: please explain

    Sort of.  You can have affiliate links or banners pointing at faremax.com or you can have a full booking engine installed on your website.  We are currently working on a new and much improved Sabre-based booking engine and affiliate version will be rebuilt as well.

    Re: please explain

    So we could either have a link to faremax, or a faremax booking engine, on our site? Is the booking engine a bit like a Chitika MiniMall?

    Re: please explain

    Yes, you can have a link or a private label booking engine for your website.  Sorry I don't know what Chitika MiniMall is but you can see the booking engine at http://www.faremax.com/airline_tickets.aspx.  We are currently developing a new and much improved Sabre-based booking engine which should be out in about 2 months and we currently negotiating terms with a few major airlines to offer consolidated fares to more destinations in Europe and also Asia and Africa.

    Thanks, faremax, I'll take a look.

    Sounds like you are going to be doing some really good value-for-money fares in the future.

    Re: please explain

    We are trying. Its unbelievable hard when you are surrounded by monsters like Orbitz, Expedia, Hotwire and so on.  They have unlimited resources and people don't just yet trust faremax.  When they see consolidated fares on our website that are 30-50% less than Orbitz they think its some sort of scam.

    Re: please explain

    I just looked at your fares, and they are very nice! I don't have a travel related web site, but I will most certainly check this site for future bookings and pass it on to friends. For future reference, what does the affiliate programme pay? Is it a percentage or a flat fee per booking?

    Re: please explain

    For now you can only set a fixed amount but we are almost finished developing a new booking engine and affiliates will be able to specify either fixed amount or percentage.  If you are interested I suggest waiting a month or so until we release the new version.
