Partner names stay private, so we only ever say how many partners a company works with.
Before you write to partners
Four things to have in place
Have a partner pack ready
Vehicles, rates, insurance and contacts in one document, so a partner can say yes without a call.
Set rates that leave a margin
Choose a commission or a net model for each partner group and check the cost behind it before anything goes out.
Answer partners first
A concierge with a guest waiting needs a reply in minutes, and the same speed wins the next request.
Never undercut your partners
Keep your website, OTA listings and partner rates in line, so a partner never sees their guest offered a lower price.
How we run it
B2B partners is one of the seven areas we run
We build the partner pack, write to hotels, agencies and operators near your routes from your own mailbox and keep the conversations going, while you set the rates and run the trips.

Questions
Before you start with partners
Which partners should a chauffeur company start with?
Start where your trips already go: the hotels at the end of your airport routes, the agencies that sell your region and, if golf is near, the golf operators. Irish Transfer began writing to travel agencies in October 2025.
Commission or net rates?
Some partners take a commission on your price, others buy at a net rate, your price to them, and add their own margin before selling it on. Rates and the model are always yours to set, and we show the cost behind each option before anything goes out.
How soon do partners start booking?
It depends on the season. Agencies build their programmes months ahead, so the first emails often turn into bookings with the next season’s trips.
Do you share the emails you send to partners?
No. The emails we write go from your mailbox and stay with your company, and we do not publish them.
Will you name our partners in your marketing?
No. We may say how many partners you have, but never who they are.
