How 5UP5 works and how it may make money, in plain terms.
5UP5 is currently a travel discovery and referral website. We don’t sell travel or process bookings ourselves. When a listing is ready to act on, we point you to a third-party travel website where you can complete the booking.
5UP5 may earn affiliate commissions from qualifying bookings or purchases made after you’re redirected from this site to a third-party travel provider, including through affiliate networks such as Travelpayouts. Affiliate compensation does not necessarily increase the price you pay — in most cases the price is the same whether you book through our link or go directly to the provider.
Booking and payment are completed with the third-party provider, not with 5UP5. The final price, availability, cancellation policy, taxes, fees, and other booking conditions are all determined by that provider, not by us.
Having a commercial relationship with a travel partner does not guarantee that every offer or provider will be displayed on 5UP5, or shown in a particular position. Our boards are intended to reflect price movement, not who pays the highest commission.
Our affiliate relationships are sourced through the Travelpayouts network. We only describe a brand as an active partner once the relevant affiliate program has actually been approved; until then, we refer to travel partners generally rather than naming specific brands.
If anything on this page is unclear, email hello@5up5.com.
Some 5UP5 links use Travelpayouts affiliate tracking for travel services such as activities, transfers, car rental and connectivity. Hotel discovery links may also use Stay22. Availability, prices, terms and purchases are provided by the third-party provider you continue to.
