Designate a partner or booking agent
This guide is for the professional (organizer) who wants another person or organization to place bookings on their activities: reseller, tourist office, host, commercial partner… The agent does not run your account; they book from their Activiteez space on the offerings you open to them.
This flow is distinct from sharing an instructor’s calendar — see What is the difference between an agent and sharing an instructor’s calendar?.
Prerequisites
- Your partner has a valid email address (existing Activiteez account or to be created).
- You know which activities the agent will book (Partners mode — see Choose a booking mode).
Procedure — add the agent
- Open Settings → Agents.
- Enter the partner’s name and email address, then confirm the add.
- Open the agent record (modal) to set rights if needed: Read only, Booking, Programming and Reservation, or Modification, Programming and Reservation. Optionally set the commission (fixed amount, percentage, or both).
- Leave via Back to application (and Save and return if a dialog appears).
If the person does not yet have an Activiteez account, they receive Become a partner of {your account}. If they already have an account, they receive Partnership request from {your account}.
Tell your partner: they must accept the link (Active / Active partnership status) in Settings → Agents on their account. Without that, collaboration does not start — see Book as a partner.
Statuses shown
In Settings → Agents, Understanding statuses clarifies in particular:
- No user account / No Activiteez account — the person does not yet have access;
- Partnership inactive — the link is not accepted on both sides;
- Active partnership — the agent can book (provided Partners mode is on the activity).
Note — incoming request
A partner can also ask to be added. You then see the request in Settings → Agents → Pending agent requests, and you can accept or decline it. Details: What happens if I decline an agent request?.
Procedure — open activities to partner mode
Designating an agent is not enough: each activity must allow partner registration.
- Edit the relevant activity.
- Pricing, Bookings tab: check Partners, then save.
- Confirm the agent is in your list with Active partnership.
- If you limit scope, check the activity category is allowed for that partner.
Procedure — commissions and tracking
For each partner, you can optionally set:
- a fixed amount per booking;
- a percentage of the booking amount;
- both combined, per your commercial agreement.
Activiteez calculates commissions automatically on bookings placed by the agent.
- Book → My partner commissions.
- Review amounts owed per partner and period.
- Use Pay to record the amount in your Activiteez entries and mark the commission as settled.
Note — no transfer in the app
Activiteez does not perform bank transfers: actual settlement stays between you and your partner (wire, check, etc.).
Common issues
- Agent does not see activities: Active link on both sides, Partners mode on the activity, allowed category — see the agent/partner verification FAQ.
- Booking refused: invalid agent account or activity without partner mode.
- Missing commission: check fixed / percentage setup on the partner record.
