Rentalo.com™ Affiliates Program for Owners




Thank you for your interest in our Affiliates Program for Property Owners. This program has been designed to take advantage of the synergy and enduring relations that exist amongst Rentalo.com™ and property owners. Ultimately, we share a common goal: to meet travelers' needs when finding suitable short-term accommodations online.

As you may have noticed, at Rentalo.com™ we offer a very exclusive and convenient service to travelers known as the destination inquiry service. This service allows travelers to inquire for bookings to multiple property owners at once. This great time-saving service permits travelers to receive offers from properties that match the traveler's lodging criteria. Throughout the years, we continue to receive numerous positive reviews from travelers who praise our unique functionality. Please take a moment to read some of our traveler's testimonials. Our destination inquiry service played a significant role during the selection process conducted by the editors of the National Geographic Magazine when Rentalo was chosen among many other vacation rental websites to be featured as [Best of the Web] Vacation Rentals in September of 2005.

This same year, we launched an Affiliates Program based on Commission Junction's platform (CJ is one of the largest e-commerce affiliates network) to increase the number of referrals we generate for our property owners. This program has been very successful and it is now being promoted to our broader base of property owners for a number of good reasons:


We want to recruit affiliates that matter and take interest in our blossoming industry. Most property owners understand the value of our destination inquiry service to travelers.
Property owners have a legitimate reason for promoting our destination inquiry service to travelers.
At Rentalo.com™ we want to develop long lasting business relationships with our property owners.


· How do Property Owners Benefit from Promoting Rentalo's Destination Inquiry Service ?

Below is a typical scenario describing how property owners can promote our destination inquiry service to travelers:

Many property owners advertise their properties in multiple websites, including their own. Let's say a property owner (you) receives an inquiry from a traveler, via any of the other websites you advertised your property with...

Unfortunately when you check pricing & availability to secure a booking, you determine that you are unable to accommodate this traveler (e.g., property is already booked, budget is too low, too many people in the party, etc). When faced with this situation, most property owners reluctantly reply to these type of inquiries with something like: "Sorry - my property is not available, maybe next time."

As an affiliate of Rentalo.com, you could add the following to your reply and benefit from a referral commission:

Sorry, our property is unavailable for the dates you requested. However, I suggest you use the link below to broadcast your inquiry in Rentalo.com, and get offers directly from other properties that may be available in my destination or nearby locations.
