AffiliateFuture launches white label search engine for agents

Thursday, 27 Jun, 2006 0

AffiliateFuture has developed a package holiday search engine allowing agents to brand, promote and directly sell three million package holidays online.

Holidays are being provided by Airtours, Aspro, Manos, Panorama, Direct Holidays, Portland Holidays, Escapades and Virgin Holidays

The white label search engine claims to be the first of its kind in the UK and says it will deliver the fastest, most comprehensive and cheapest online holiday search results nationwide.

Two sites already using the search engine with their own branding are Flight World (flight-world.co.uk) and auction site (qxl.com)

AffiliateFuture is in negotiations with other tour operators to add their best offers to its cache and aims to supply the largest number of holiday deals departing from the UK.

CEO Maz Darvish said: “By enabling affiliate branding and securing over three million package holidays we have created a hugely attractive proposition for our affiliate network, which should equally appeal to travel agents with an online presence.”

Affiliates can manipulate the look and feel of the search engine’s interface so that it blends in with their own website.

Integration with an affiliate website requires only one line of code to be ‘cut & paste’.

The search engine’s technology is based on its own cache of the inventory from the participating tour operators.

This speeds up the search process as consumers will directly hit the cache to get results.

Through the interface users will be able to search for holidays by different criteria, including departure airport, destination, dates or budget.
