Wallet & Quote Fees

Simple pay-per-accepted-quote model

Register for free, top up your wallet, and only pay when you accept a quote that matches your business. The fee is a percentage of the traveler's total safari cost with no monthly subscription required just to participate.

1. Add wallet balance

Top up your SafariVendors wallet before accepting quote requests that match your business.

Wallet
  • Top up balance anytime
  • Use balance for accepted leads
  • View wallet history in dashboard

3. Fee by bid percentage

The accepted quote fee equals your selected bid percentage multiplied by the total safari cost.

%of trip cost
  • Operator chooses bid percentage (1.5% – 3%)
  • Fee = Total Safari Cost x Bid %
  • Amount is deducted from wallet

Example fee calculation

If the traveler's total safari cost is $2,000 and the operator selects a 1.5% bid, the accepted quote charge is:

$30deducted from wallet

Formula: $2,000 x 1.5% = $30.

Why this is fair for operators

Operators do not pay monthly fees just to appear on the platform. You only spend wallet balance when you accept quote opportunities that genuinely match your business.

  • No fixed monthly subscription required
  • Free to browse available quote requests
  • Transparent bid percentage before acceptance

FAQ

Tour Operator Questions

Common questions from safari operators before joining SafariVendors.

Can tour operators register for free?

Yes. Tour operators can register for free. You only pay when you accept a quote request, using funds from your SafariVendors wallet.

Which tour operators can apply?

Local safari operators, inbound operators, DMCs, and multi-country safari companies can apply if they offer real safari services and can respond to traveler quote requests professionally.

How do operators pay for quote requests?

Operators keep money in their wallet. When you accept a quote request, SafariVendors charges a fee based on your selected bid percentage and the traveler's total safari cost.

What happens if an operator wants to decline a quote?

Decline is allowed when there is a genuine mismatch between the traveler's request and your offering, such as route, dates, capacity, or policy. The decline request must be submitted before the deadline and approved by admin.

How is the accepted quote charge calculated?

The formula is: charge = total safari cost x bid percentage. For example, if the safari cost is $2,000 and your bid percentage is 1.5%, the wallet charge is $30. You can choose a bid from 1.5% to 3%.

Can operators add multiple safari packages?

Yes. Operators can add multiple safari packages with destination, duration, price range, images, route, inclusions, exclusions, and a day-by-day itinerary.
