You Got Your Commission Check. Now What?

Posted Feb 15, 2019 4:02:00 PM in Agent News by Amanda Hand

Making money is an essential part of doing business. As a travel professional, you rely heavily on commissions – and rightfully so.  Here at TravelSafe, we offer some of the most competitive commissions in the industry. When travel professionals offer supplier coverage, they receive anywhere from 8-12%, respectively. Our lowest commission is 15%, and we're proud of that. 

However, once you receive your first commission check, you need to know what's next. Here we are going to break down how you can view and print your commission details report, and what you are going to see when you receive payment for offering TravelSafe plans to your clients. 

Commissions are paid on a monthly basis, which is great for many of our agent partners. 

1. WHAT YOUR PAYMENT LOOKS LIKE 

Whether you are paid through direct deposit or physical check, your payment will state that it is paid by Seven Corners. We chose to have our partner pay commissions to increase efficiency. Although we are still working out a few kinks in the process, this allows us to cut down on processing time and pay commissions more often and more quickly. 

NOTE: Your commission statement may display contact information for Seven Corners. Be sure to disregard this and always contact TravelSafe directly for questions regarding your commission. 

Here is an example of what your Commission Statement will look like: 

Do not call the Seven Corners numbers for questions. Contact TravelSafe at (800) 523-8020.
