The key to faster payouts and business growth: The FHDN advantage
Don’t let slow payments or outdated systems hold you back.

In the fast-paced world of tours and activities, getting paid quickly isn’t just a convenience — it’s essential. Whether it’s reinvesting in new equipment, covering payroll, or planning for seasonal demand, delays in receiving revenue can slow your business down.
At FareHarbor, we know that cash flow is essential to your ultimate success. That’s why we designed the FareHarbor Distribution Network (FHDN) to help you not only get paid faster when working with affiliates but also grow your business with ease. Curious how? Let’s dive in.
What is the FareHarbor Distribution Network (FHDN)?
The FareHarbor Distribution Network (FHDN) simplifies how you connect with distribution partners. Operators can sell other businesses’ tours and activities, have other businesses sell their tours and activities, or do both!
With just one contract and one easy-to-use Dashboard, the FHDN enables you to access a wide range of distribution channels — from niche online travel agencies (OTAs) to travel bloggers and, of course, other local tour operators — without the headache of managing multiple agreements or platforms.
While traditional OTAs or API connections often come with their own complexities, the FHDN is designed with a customer-first mindset. The goal? To make your distribution efforts seamless and efficient, allowing you to focus on delivering unforgettable experiences to your guests.
Benefits of joining the FHDN:
- One contract: No need to juggle agreements with multiple affiliates.
- One Dashboard: Track bookings, payouts, and performance metrics all in one place.
- Endless partners: Expand your reach and your revenue with minimal effort.
Unlock faster payouts with the FHDN
One of the standout benefits of the FHDN is its faster payouts. Unlike some big OTAs that can take a long time to transfer earnings, your payments through the FHDN are sent immediately. No more waiting for funds to clear while expenses pile up.
Why does this matter? Faster payments mean:
- You gain the financial freedom to reinvest in your business as soon as possible.
- Your improved cash flow will allow you to better manage payroll and other operating costs.
- No matter if you’re in your high or low season, you have the flexibility to navigate your shifting demand.
But don’t just take our word for it, Michaela Miller, owner of Caribbean Concierge, shares her positive experience utilising this affiliate program:
“The FHDN has been a fantastic part of matching our guests with local tour operators. The FHDN team is easy to work with, responds quickly, and helps in running our tourism business with ease!”
This contrasts with some challenges businesses face when using larger OTAs, where payout delays can create hurdles for day-to-day operations.
The FHDN’s faster payouts can supplement these delays, ensuring you have the cash flow you need to cover all of your expenses and invest in growth opportunities.
Maximize profits with minimal investment
The FHDN isn’t just about faster payments; it’s also a cost-effective way to grow your business and expand your reach. With lower commissions, you gain the value of working with affiliates while retaining more of your hard-earned revenue.
Additionally, you can add the FHDN into your channel mix as a great low-investment booking source! If unfamiliar, your channel mix refers to the different revenue streams your business uses to collect bookings, such as, direct bookings, OTAs, or in-person sales. By diversifying your channel mix, you can reduce dependency on any single source and boost your overall bookings.
Streamline operations and focus on what really matters
Running a tour business involves enough moving parts without the added complexity of managing multiple distribution contracts and platforms. With the FHDN, everything is centralized — one contract, no negotiations, one seamless Dashboard, and immediate payouts.
By reducing administrative work, the FHDN gives you more time to focus on what matters most — whether it’s delivering exceptional customer experiences, refining your marketing strategies, or expanding your offerings.
