STA Travel Affiliate Program

Affiliate marketing is one of the fastest growing industries on the Internet. The concept is simple: We make money, you make money!  The STA Travel Affiliate Program enables you to earn commission online by aligning your site with the global leader in travel for students and young people.

What is the Affiliate Program?

Our Affiliates Program is a system that enables your website to earn commission whenever customers book on statravel.com via your website. By tracking flight, accommodation, insurance, rail passes, and discount card purchases made via your website, we will pay you a percentage of every booking made.

How does it work?

You begin by signing up for our program and placing STA Travel links on your site.  You can choose from a variety of banner ads, buttons, text links, and search keywords making it easy to incorporate links to statravel.com within your existing site structure. We will automatically track any sales that originate from your site and pay you any commission you are due each and every month.
