How weget paid

Last updated October 26, 2026

Allways is free to use. We make money through commissions: when you click a link or use a search on this site and then book with one of our partners, that partner may pay us a share of what you spend.

Does it cost you more?

No. You pay the partner's normal price. The commission comes out of the partner's side, not yours. We never add a fee on top.

Who pays us

Partners can include hotel and booking sites (such as Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com and Vrbo), flight search sites (such as Aviasales, Kiwi.com and Trip.com), tours and activities sites (such as Viator, GetYourGuide and Klook), car rental sites (such as DiscoverCars), cruise sellers (such as CruiseDirect), and insurance and eSIM companies (such as SafetyWing, VisitorsCoverage and Airalo). Some of these links run through affiliate networks such as Travelpayouts and CJ.

What that means for what you see

The places on this site are picked because we think they are good trips for the budget they sit under. We may earn more from some partners than others. We don't take money to list a destination, and we don't publish reviews, ratings or "only 2 left" style messages.

Plan my trip for me

When we plan a trip for you, we are paid the same way: by the hotels, cruise lines, tour companies and booking sites, when you book. Planning is free for you.

Who you book with

When you book, your contract is with that company. They take your payment, send your confirmation and handle changes, cancellations and refunds. We can't see or change your booking on their site.

Questions

Just use the Plan my trip form (put your question in the notes).
