Pay the people who bring you bookings, without the spreadsheet

An i-SITE sends you a booking, a tour operator books for their guests, a corporate account hires on agreed terms. Set the party up once, agree a commission rate, and every booking they bring accrues commission on its own, worked from the totals already on the booking, sitting on a ledger you approve and settle. No month-end reconciliation, no "what did we owe them again?".

Commission is a liability, not a discount. Glovebox never touches the price the customer pays or the rate you quote. It reads the hire line off the completed booking and works out what you owe the party who sent it. That keeps your revenue honest and your commission auditable: every line is derived from a stored total, and the ledger only ever appends, so a reprice or a cancellation writes a correcting entry rather than editing history.

How it works

From a handshake to a settled invoice

01 Set the party up once Agent or broker, corporate account, or channel partner, with their contact, billing detail and GST number. Whether they are GST-registered decides whether their commission invoice to you carries 15% GST, so your Xero coding stays correct without you thinking about it.
02 Agree the terms A rate agreement is the basis, the rate and the term. The NZ inbound convention (the hire line only, ex-GST, 10–20%) is the default, and a guided setup works the exact dollar figure on one of the party's real bookings while you set the rate, so you see what you are agreeing to before you activate it.
03 Bookings accrue on their own Attribute a booking to the party and, from the agreement's effective date, commission accrues automatically and never retroactively, so turning an agreement on today does not rewrite last quarter. One agreement is in force at a time; a new one closes the old on the day before, so a booking is never counted twice.
04 Approve, then settle The commission report shows what is outstanding, per party, ex-GST. When their invoice comes in you mark the lines settled against its reference. Nothing is ever paid automatically. The money leaves when you say it does, and the settled trail reconciles against what they billed.

Worked on a real booking

“Net hire $657.39 · 15% · commission $98.61 ex-GST · $113.40 payable incl-GST”: the figure you agree before you activate, run on one of their own bookings.

See the maths first

The number, before you commit to it

The guided setup recomputes the commission on every keystroke of the rate, worked on the party's most recent booking. You watch the base, the ex-GST commission, the GST and the payable move together, so "15% of the hire line" stops being abstract and becomes a dollar figure you can stand behind.

There is one calculation, tested to the cent, shared by the preview and the ledger. What you see while setting the rate is exactly what accrues on every booking after it.

The honest bit

What it does today, and what it doesn't

Today: agent, broker and corporate parties, rate agreements on the hire line ex-GST, automatic accrual on attributed bookings, and a commission report you approve and settle against an invoice, with the GST treatment coded for Xero from the party's registration. You attribute a booking to a party on its Pricing tab. Tracked agent codes that tag a booking automatically, a self-serve agent portal, and month-end statement generation are on the roadmap, not in yet. Commission never moves your price, and it is part of your founding membership, never a hidden line on your invoice.
