How much can a Travel Counsellor earn?

As a Travel Counsellor, your earning potential is unlimited. This is all thanks to our in-house booking platform, Phenix.

Read on to find out how it works, and how it can work for you. Our integrated booking platform, Phenix, is one of the things our franchisees tell us that they love most about running their own travel businesses with us. Phenix allows Travel Counsellors to act as a tour operator to tailor-make travel itineraries to delight their customers.

So, how does Phenix increase your earning potential?

The beauty of Phenix means, because you create and control the booking, you can flex the margin applied. Typically, by using a third-party supplier, you’re restricted to the fixed margin they offer.

By giving you control of the margin, you can find a price point that suits your clients and values the time and expertise you bring to the booking. Phenix is home to every travel component a customer could ever want. And bespoke, tailor-made travel experiences equals very happy customers. And very happy customers equals repeat bookings!

On average, a Travel Counsellor can earn €48,000 annually, significantly surpassing the average income of a travel agent in Ireland. Moreover, numerous 'Gold' and Corporate Travel Counsellors make over €120,000 per year.

Our commission model is based on a 60/40 split. You take 60% of the profit you make on your bookings, and with our in-house booking system, Phenix, you’ll have complete control over the margin you set on these package bookings. Our Travel Counsellors tell us that the service and support they receive from us, makes the 60/40 split great value for money.
