Agency Managed Commission
Calculate and Claim Agency Commissions Automatically to Help Drive Revenue
Agencies are dependent on front-end commissions to meet their overall revenue goals. Currently, calculating those commissions is a manual process that reduces agent productivity and revenue potential. On average, it takes eight minutes to issue a commissionable ticket.
As contract complexity increases, these manual processes not only become more time-consuming, but can often result in unclaimed commissions.
Optimize Commissions and Grow Revenue
Agency Managed Commission is a one-of-a-kind product that allows agencies to automate their commission process from end to end. Not only can this increase revenue, it also boosts agent productivity. In the process, agencies are able to reduce debit memos with airlines along with associated costs.
Currently, Agency Managed Commission is exclusively available to all agencies in the United States and Canada.
Agency Managed Commission has allowed for precise commission calculations and automated claims at time of ticketing. Our agents are no longer required to review contract terms and as a result, our agency has seen an increased revenue stream.
