Partner options
A simple structure that matches how your agency sells.
Commission program
The traveler or agency books at the confirmed public rate. Approved commission is paid on eligible base transportation after the completed, fully paid ride.
Net-rate program
Qualified higher-volume partners may request a confidential net rate. Net rates and commission are not combined on the same reservation.
Four-ride family package
A single reservation can connect LAX, Disneyland, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Santa Monica across four private rides.
Partner terms are confirmed in writing. Commission or net-rate eligibility depends on agency verification, booking volume, route, vehicle, payment method, and service requirements. No exclusive commitment or credit terms are required for an initial pilot.
How partnership starts
Begin with a small, paid pilot.
New partners start with verified agency information and a short pilot. This protects the traveler, the agency, and the transportation schedule.
1. Verify the business
Send the agency name, website, business email, host agency if applicable, and available CLIA, IATA/IATAN, ARC, or Seller of Travel information.
2. Choose one rate model
Gate & Mile confirms either commission or a confidential net rate, plus payment and cancellation terms.
3. Complete the first reservations
Start with paid, confirmed rides. Consistent volume can qualify for a revised partner arrangement.
Build the ground itinerary
Start with the routes your clients actually need.
Airport and hotel arrivals
Compare LAX to Anaheim and Disneyland with SNA to Disneyland. Include the flight number, actual hotel address, party size, bags, and advance child-seat requests so the route can be reviewed.
Theme parks and the coast
Plan Universal Studios to Santa Monica as a separate one-way transfer, or review the four-ride family transportation package. Attraction admission and accommodation are not included.
Long-distance itineraries
Review San Diego, Santa Barbara, and Palm Springs transfers. List each direction, destination address, date, and requested stop separately; a published route fare is not an approved agency net rate.
Cruise connections: confirm the terminal.
For the World Cruise Center in San Pedro, compare LAX to San Pedro cruise transfers and Long Beach Airport to San Pedro transfers. The Long Beach Cruise Terminal is a different destination and needs its own quote. Include the ship, sailing date, exact terminal address and each direction when requesting the agency arrangement.
Review the vehicle classes and fleet photos and booking and cancellation terms before requesting a written partner arrangement.

Partner questions
Before the first booking.
Can independent travel advisors apply?
Yes. Independent advisors may apply with their host agency, business email, and applicable agency credentials.
Do you offer commission or net rates?
Approved partners may receive one compensation model based on expected volume and service requirements. Commission and a net-rate discount are not combined on the same reservation.
When is a client’s ride confirmed?
A ride is confirmed only after availability, itinerary, vehicle category, rate, payment, and cancellation terms are confirmed in writing.
Can child seats be requested?
Yes. Child safety seats, rear-facing seats, and booster seats may be requested in advance, subject to vehicle fit and written confirmation.
Do you sell air, hotel, or attraction packages?
No. Gate & Mile provides ground transportation. Travel partners remain responsible for their own travel sales, licensing, disclosures, and client agreements.
