Group Transportation Your Clients Can't Book At The Counter

The Van Specialists, Commissionable At Last

Your clients travel in groups: family reunions, ski trips, sports teams, corporate offsites, student tours. The airport counters top out at a minivan, and brokers add fees without adding service. Bandago has specialized in 8 to 15 passenger vans since 2003, with real humans on the phone and a commission program built for the way agents actually work.

A Program That Works Like The Ones You Already Use

Familiar Workflow, Better Vans

If you have ever booked a client into a rental car with your agency number attached, you already know this program. Same idea, purpose-built vans, and a portal that keeps every client organized.

A Flat 5%, Tracked For You

Every booking made through your account earns a flat 5% of the base rental. No promo codes, no claim forms, no chasing. Attribution runs on your account, so commissions track themselves.

Every Client, One Account

Add each client to your Client List as its own sub-account: the reunion, the ski club, the corporate team. Book on any client's behalf and keep every trip cleanly separated under your agency login.

Paid Weekly, Direct Deposit

Commissions are paid by direct deposit through Stripe, on a weekly payout run. Watch pending and paid commissions on your dashboard, and download statements any time.

Your Card Or Your Client's

Pay on the agency card, or send the client's cardholder a secure authorization link. Each client's card stays scoped to that client, so billing never crosses between trips.

Your Whole Team On One Login

Invite fellow advisors with full booking access, and add clients or drivers as email-only recipients who just get the confirmations that concern them.

Book Online, Anytime

Reserve vans from the portal 24/7 and see every reservation across your client list in one dashboard. Magic-link login means no password hunting when a client calls.

How It Works

1

Register With Your Agency ID

Create your free account as a Travel Agency and add your accreditation number. We recognize the industry standards:

IATAARC CLIATRUE TIDS
2

We Verify And Enroll You

A real person confirms your accreditation, usually within one business day, then activates your Client List and enrolls your agency in the commission program. One quick Stripe setup and payouts land straight in your bank account.

3

Book For Clients, Get Paid

Reserve vans for any client from the portal or over the phone. When a rental completes and is paid in full, your 5% becomes payable and goes out with a weekly payout run, about 30 days after drop-off.

Do The Math

What 5% Looks Like

Group vans are a bigger ticket than a sedan, and multi-day trips add up fast. Your commission is 5% of the base rental charges on each completed booking.

A weekend family reunion, $1,000 in base rental
$50
A week-long team trip, $2,500 in base rental
$125
A two-van corporate offsite, $6,000 in base rental
$300
A season of group bookings, $40,000 in base rental
$2,000

Commission is calculated on base rental charges, net of discounts. Taxes, fees, fuel, delivery, and protection products are not commissionable. Your clients pay the same rates as booking direct.

The Inventory The Majors Don't Carry

Vans Your Clients Will Rave About

Straight Answers

Travel Agent FAQ

Which agency credentials do you accept?

We accept IATA, ARC, CLIA, TRUE, and TIDS numbers. Book travel professionally without one? Register anyway and our team will verify your agency directly.

How much is the commission, and on what?

A flat 5% of the base rental charges on every completed booking made through your account, net of discounts. Taxes, government fees, fuel, delivery, mileage overages, and protection products are excluded. There are no tiers and no minimums, and every agency earns the same rate.

When and how do I get paid?

A commission becomes payable once the rental is completed and paid in full, with a 30-day buffer for changes and refunds. Payouts go out weekly by direct deposit through Stripe, and your portal shows pending and paid amounts in real time.

How are my bookings tracked?

By account, not by links or promo codes. Once your agency is enrolled, any reservation booked through your account or one of your Client List sub-accounts is attributed to you automatically, whether you book online or call us.

Do my clients pay more when I book through Bandago?

No. Your clients pay the same rates as booking direct, and joining the program is free. The commission comes from us, not from a markup.

Can my client pay with their own card?

Yes. Send the cardholder a secure authorization link from the portal and the card goes on file for that client only. You can also keep an agency card on the account for centrally billed trips.
