Affiliate program

Send people on an adventure. Get credited when they book.

You already tell people about the things you love. If MicroAdventures is one of them, this is how the bookings you send our way come back to you.

How it works

  1. 1

    Get your code

    Everyone who books a trip gets a referral code and a share link. You'll find yours in your dashboard once you're in.

  2. 2

    Share it

    Drop your link anywhere it reaches people who'd genuinely enjoy a day on the water. Your followers, your newsletter, a group chat, a conversation over coffee.

  3. 3

    Earn on what you drive

    When someone books through your link, they save 10% and you earn 10%. That's a 20% share of the base ticket, split between the two of you.

Questions, answered

How does attribution work?
Last click wins. When someone follows your link, we tag their browser with your code for 30 days. If they book any time in that window, the sale is yours. If a newer link lands in between, the most recent one before the booking gets the credit.
What do I earn?
A 20% share of the base ticket price. By default that's 10% off for the person you refer and 10% back to you. Add-ons like overnight stays and gear sit outside the split.
Do I get credit or cash?
Credit by default - money off your own next booking, issued after the sale and good for 365 days. A smaller group of partners earns cash instead, paid out through Stripe. There's more on that below.
When do I get paid?
Cash payouts clear after a 30-day hold on each sale. The hold covers the refund window. Once it closes and you're set up for payouts, the money is yours.
What if a booking gets refunded?
The credit or commission for that booking is voided. You earn on trips that actually happen.
Can I use my own code?
No. Self-referral is blocked, and codes only work for first-time customers. So you can't book your own trips through your link, and you can't hand your code to someone who has already booked with us.
How do I get paid in cash?
Apply below. The cash program is selective and entirely at our discretion. If you reach the right people and want to promote our trips for commission, tell us about it.

Program policy

The idea is simple. Commission rewards the new customers you bring us, not the interception of people already on their way. If a booking would have happened without you, it isn't a referral.

Encouraged

  • Promote to your own audience - your followers, newsletter, community, or original content.
  • Make honest recommendations, and share your link anywhere it reaches people who wouldn't already be booking with us.

Not allowed

These void the commission and can get you removed from the program.

  • No brand bidding or brand-SEO arbitrage. Don't run paid ads on our brand terms (MicroAdventures, microad.ventures, our event names) or build pages engineered to rank for them. Anyone searching for us by name is already ours. Capturing that traffic adds nothing and just skims commission.
  • No impersonation. Don't present yourself as MicroAdventures or imply any official status beyond affiliate.
  • No cookie-stuffing or forced clicks, and no other trick to attach your code to sales you didn't drive.
  • No self-referral. It's blocked in the system anyway.
  • No spam, meaning no unsolicited bulk email or DMs, and no false or misleading claims about our trips, pricing, or what people will get.
  • No undercutting. Don't rebate your commission to discount our pricing without approval.

Apply to earn cash

We work with a small group of partners who reach the right people and want to promote our trips for cash commission. Taking part in the cash program is selective and entirely at our discretion. If that sounds like you, tell us a little about yourself.
