Our Business Model

Our proven model provides complete peace of mind.

The most comprehensive financial protection for your customer, and 360° wrap-around support for you.

How it works

At Travel Counsellors, we work in partnership with you. You’ll be a self-employed franchise holder arranging bespoke travel experiences for your customer. You’ll earn money from commission on all the travel services you sell.
That commission is then split 60/40 with us. 60% for you; 40% for us. For that 40%, we’ll provide you with unrivalled support and continuous investment in your business.
Although we are a commission-based business, we champion superb customer experience and service above all else. So where two holidays exist, one better for the customer and one better for your pocket, your priority will be what’s right for the customer.
Joining Travel Counsellors will give you the opportunity to be part of a unique global travel company that’s enjoyed double-digit growth for the last 15 years and won countless awards. Are you ready to be part of the next step in our incredible journey?

Financial Protection

It’s reassuring to know that your customers money is financially protected with Travel Counsellors. Travel Counsellors Ireland is licenced and bonded by the Commission for Aviation Regulation in Ireland giving you and your customers the reassurance that their money is safe.

We work in partnership with hundreds of hand-picked suppliers and trusted travel providers around the globe to ensure our customers receive the highest possible levels of protection, care, support and service wherever and whenever they travel with us.

Why do we do this? Because no other travel company cares about its customers like we do
