Help your clients discover the world — and earn doing it.
What you get when you join the herd
Your hours. Your pace. Your business.
Work mornings, evenings, school hours — whatever fits. No quotas, no targets, no shifts. You set the schedule and the ambition.
A real team behind you.
Self-paced training, supplier partnerships, an active agent community, and an ops team that replies within 24 hours. You're independent — not alone.
Honest pricing, honest pay.
One startup fee, one monthly fee, a clear 70/30 commission split, and 100% commission on your own personal travel. No hidden costs, no surprise charges.
What does this actually pay?
The most common question, with the honest answer. These are average annual earnings — your number depends on hours invested and the network you build.
One thing worth knowing upfront: commissions land 30–90 days after your client travels, not when they book. Your first sale in month one might pay out in month three or four. The agents who succeed plan for it.
Transparent pricing — no hidden fees.
Two fees. That’s it.*
- • Canadian criminal record check
- • Soft credit inquiry (no impact on your score)
- • Initial setup of your tools — email, phone, profile
- • Your first month of access fees, free
- • Full business toolkit — CRM, email, phone, website profile
- • HIPPOcampus training platform
- • Direct support from the HIPPOhq ops team
- • Access to the agent-only community
On every booking you make, you keep 70% of the commission and GOwithHIPPO keeps 30%. On personal travel for you and your household through our preferred suppliers, you keep 100%.
* Ontario residents only: provincial law requires you to register with TICO (the Travel Industry Council of Ontario) before selling travel. TICO charges its own registration and annual renewal fees, paid directly to TICO — not to GOwithHIPPO. We’ll walk you through it during onboarding.
What our agents say
“Everything being digital has made it very easy for a stay-at-home mom to work while caring for a baby. The support has been faster than I expected. After webinars from other host agencies, I got the impression they don’t have processes this easy.”
“After 10+ years as an Independent Travel Advisor with GOwithHIPPO, I can confidently say it’s more than just booking trips — it’s about creating friendships and experiences that last. The culture is collaborative and supportive; we solve problems together and celebrate every win.”
“The monthly fees are very reasonable compared to other agencies, and I love that I have access to a wide variety of suppliers. Support is always just a call, text, or email away, and the other agents are quick to jump in with advice. I feel confident knowing I have a solid team behind me.”
