  Europcar

Does anyone know how Europcar define a lead? The info on tradedoubler says:

Quote:
Paying out commissions at a generous £0.30 per lead, you should have no trouble in achieving an excellent conversion rate on the traffic you send to us so sign up today and start benefiting from the service that we can provide for your visitors.
I have contacted tradedoubler support but have had mixed messages about this. First I was told it was per user registration and then I was told it was per reservation.

Cheers

Hi chs,

Europcar pays £0.30 per reservation request:

"We are now offering affiliates the opportunity to earn £0.30 for every visitor they send to our site that subsequently goes on to make a reservation request."

Kind regards,

Nick

And one day Europcar will pay realistic commissions - 30p is taking the proverbial when using carrentals.co.uk for example you can earn £30 quite easily.

I have agree with kbudden on this. Nick, could you contact Europcar and see if they could review their commission structure? They have a good brand but at 30p per res its just not worth promoting. They are paying the lowest commissions in the car rental industry by far.

Cheers,

Dan

I just wrote a nice little piece on Europcar, as I was impressed by how user-friendly their website is. However, upon noticing their paltry commission rates, I'm afraid I won't be able to give them any website inches. With carrentals offering 25% at the moment, it just won't do. Chalk up another one for reviewing their payment structure!

Perhaps someone at Tradedoubler could point Europcar at this thread... There are a number of affiliates willing to drive traffic to Europcar once they bring their commission in line with the other car rental companies.

Sadly I know that TD have highlighted the failings of their commission structure to Europcar more than once in the last year (and I have bent Europcar's ear on a couple of occassions) but they are sufficiently arrogant to consider that people will continue to promote their brand anyway...
