GPTE Commission

When you sign contract with suppliers, you can agree on getting commission from them. In this case you sell offers at the supplier's price and get commission for this.

As soon as different commissions can be applied depending on the reservation time (for example, during high and low season), allocation (main bed or extra bed), meal type, extra services, etc. - you can create several commission plans and then apply them to the required tariffs.

• validity period (usually divided into high / low season and coincides with the validity period of the tariff and price list)

• commissions for accommodation (main bed, extrabed, sharing)

• meal commissions

• additional services

• service commissions

Calculating Commission
When the order price is calculated, all commissions sums for all offer are summed up.

 Example А

The price for a SNGL room with an extra bed for 2 adults is calculated in the following way:

Price and commission:

In this case:

The total price of all booked services is:	500 EUR + 200 EUR + 10 EUR = 710 EUR
The price to be paid by a tour operator to a supplier is:	(500 EUR –10%) + (200 EUR – 5%) + (10 EUR – 0%) – 10 EUR = = 450 EUR + 190 EUR + 10 EUR – 10 EUR = 640 EUR
The tour operator gets the following commission:	710 EUR – 640 EUR = 70 EUR

 Example B

Let’s consider the same example but in this case the meal is charged separately.

Price and commission

The price to be paid by a tour operator to a supplier is:	(500 EUR –10%) + (200 EUR – 5%) + 100*2 + (10 EUR – 10%) – 10 EUR= = 450 EUR + 190 EUR + 200 EUR + 9 EUR – 10 EUR = 839 EUR
The total price of all booked services is:	500 EUR + 200 EUR + 200 EUR + 10 EUR = 910 EUR
The tour operator gets the following commission:	910 EUR – 839 EUR = 71 EUR
