Protect Group has launched its new web-based Agent Platform, enabling offline travel advisors and agencies to easily sell the company’s Refund Protect service without technical integration.
The platform creates a new ancillary revenue stream by allowing agencies to earn revenue shares and offer commission incentives to their agents.
It also opens major opportunities in high-agent sectors like cruises, where refund protection was previously limited to online or API-based sales channels.
Stephen Joyce, Global Lead for Travel, Tourism and OTAs at
Protect Group, said: “Offline agents are vital to the travel ecosystem, yet
until now their ability to sell refund protection was dictated by the software
they use. We built a simple, standalone platform that lets them book refund
protection and copy the pre-set wording into their itineraries with ease. This
means advisors can now meet the growing demand for flexibility, while earning
commission on every booking.” -TradeArabia News Service
