IN PROGRESS: We are working to improve conversions with in-path options - get in touch once you have your affiliate code so we can advise on the best available integration method.

  • We strongly encourage you to become an affiliate if you sell to travelers who reside in the United States and are traveling overseas (more global plans coming soon!).
  • They are a member of the Transformational Travel Council  (TTC) and the Adventure Travel Trade Association, and many TTC Allies/members of those organizations are already happily representing Wanderwell plans.

--> And they have really good affiliate rates!

DON'T WORRY! We heard you in our Facebook group that you like the ability to select your own Insurance partner - and you still can! Simply link out to your preferred partner in a Task

But if you don't have a preferred partner, we are making it super easy to enable Wanderwell and get paid to recommend them! Right now we are looking for early adopters to showcase the integration.
