OTA listings for chauffeur companies
Travel marketplaces: sold where travellers already book
Viator and GetYourGuide bring travellers who are already planning a trip. We choose the products that suit your fleet, set them up and keep listings and prices current, while you run the trips and answer passengers.
€67is what a direct booking costs to win with ads. A marketplace booking has to beat that after commission.
Where we list you
Two platforms, different rules
Each marketplace decides what it accepts
Both sell experiences to travellers who are already planning a trip. The rules for what you can list, and what it costs to list it, are not the same.
A one-time fee, then commission
A one-time, non-refundable fee of 29 US dollars, or the local equivalent, for every experience you submit.
- Fits
- Private day tours, golf days and trips with planned stops. Commission depends on the location.
Irish Transfer sells hereA private transfer from Shannon Airport to Galway City, listed under Airport and Hotel Transfers
Experiences, not plain transfers
Lists “non-experiential transfers, focused solely on getting travelers from point A to B using a standard vehicle” among its restricted activities.
- Fits
- A private day tour, a golf day or a distillery trip, where the trip itself is what the traveller buys

Does it pay after commission?
We check the price before anything is listed
A marketplace booking is worth what is left after the platform’s share and the cost of the trip. Move the sliders and compare it with the same trip booked direct.
Our fee starts at €2,000 a month, with no setup fee.Apply

If the figure is thin, a product can still be worth listing for the bookings it fills on quiet days, as long as that is a decision made on purpose.
Only what pays gets listed
A marketplace is one more sales channel, so every product has to earn its place after commission. The ones that do not, we leave out.

Questions
Commission, prices and the platforms
Can we list plain airport transfers?
On GetYourGuide, usually not: it restricts transfers whose only purpose is getting travellers from A to B in a standard vehicle. Day tours, golf days and trips with planned stops fit both platforms better.
What does it cost to list?
Both platforms take a commission on each booking. Viator also charges a one-time, non-refundable fee of 29 US dollars, or the local equivalent, for every experience you submit, and its commission depends on the location.
Will the marketplace price undercut our partners?
We check that before anything goes live, so hotels, agents and direct customers are not offered the same trip for more than travellers pay on a marketplace.
Who answers travellers?
You do, inside the platform, together with changes and cancellations. We handle questions about listings and the account with platform support.
Can we buy marketplace listings on their own?
Travel marketplaces are one of the seven areas we run as your marketing department, so they come with the whole department, for one monthly fee from €2,000.
