Bookings & Payments

How do I book a trip? expand_more
Browse our available trips on the Packages page. Click on any trip to view details, select the number of slots (people) you want to book, and click "Book Now." Your booking request will be sent to the agent for approval.
What payment methods are accepted? expand_more
We use Razorpay for secure online payments. You can pay using UPI, credit/debit cards, net banking, and popular wallets. Payment is only required after the agent accepts your booking request.
Can I download an invoice for my booking? expand_more
Yes! After your payment is successfully processed, you can download a PDF invoice from your "My Enrollments" dashboard. The invoice includes trip details, payment information, and applicable discounts.
What happens if my booking is rejected? expand_more
If an agent rejects your booking, no payment is charged. You will receive a notification with the reason for rejection (if provided by the agent), and you are free to book another trip or submit a new request.

Trips & Packages

What is the difference between fixed and negotiable pricing? expand_more
Fixed Price: The trip has a set per-person price. You simply select the number of slots and book.

Negotiable: You can place a bid with your preferred price per slot. The agent reviews your bid and decides whether to accept it. This gives you flexibility to negotiate better deals.
Why can't I see some trips on the listing? expand_more
Only trips that are approved by our admin team and open for bookings appear on the public listing. Agents may also close trips manually when they reach capacity or no longer wish to accept bookings.
What does "Unlimited Slots" mean? expand_more
Some trips are marked with "Unlimited Slots," meaning there is no fixed capacity limit. You can book as many slots as you need, subject to the agent's availability and approval.
Can I cancel my booking after it's accepted? expand_more
Cancellation policies vary by trip and agent. Once a booking is accepted, please contact the agent directly or reach out to our support team at info@bidmytrip.net for cancellation requests.

Group Discounts

How do group discounts work? expand_more
Some trips offer group discounts when you book a minimum number of slots. For example, if a trip has a "Min Group Size" of 5 and a 10% discount, booking 5 or more people automatically reduces the per-person price by 10%. The discount is applied instantly at checkout.
Will I see the discounted price before booking? expand_more
Yes! On the trip detail page, if a group discount is available, you will see a green banner showing the minimum group size and discount percentage. The final calculated price (including any discount) is shown clearly before you confirm your booking.
Can I combine group discounts with negotiable bids? expand_more
Group discounts apply automatically to fixed-price trips based on slot count. For negotiable trips, the discount is already factored into the trip's displayed price. You can still place a bid, but the group discount logic works differently for negotiable packages.

Custom Requirements

What is the "Find Your Holiday" feature? expand_more
"Find Your Holiday" lets you submit a custom trip requirement specifying your destination, accommodation preference, travel dates, and budget range. Verified agents can then review your request and respond with tailored quotations.
How long do agents have to respond to my requirement? expand_more
Agents typically have 24 hours to respond to a custom trip requirement. You will be notified via email and in-app notifications when an agent submits a quotation for your request.
Is there any charge for submitting a custom requirement? expand_more
No, submitting a custom trip requirement is completely free. You only pay if you decide to book a trip or accept a quotation from an agent.

For Agents

How do I register as an agent? expand_more
Click on "Agent Registration" from the main menu, fill in your agency details, business information, and submit for verification. Our admin team will review your application and approve it within 1-2 business days.
How do I close or reopen a trip? expand_more
From your Agent Dashboard, go to "My Packages," click on any trip, and use the "Close Trip" or "Reopen Trip" button. Closing a trip stops new bookings, while reopening makes it available again. You can also edit trips before they are approved by admin.
What commission does the platform take? expand_more
BidMyTrip charges a 10% admin commission on the total booking revenue. For example, if a trip generates Rs. 50,000 in bookings, the agent earns Rs. 45,000 and the platform commission is Rs. 5,000. This is clearly shown in your agent dashboard for each trip.
Can I offer group discounts on my trips? expand_more
Yes! When creating a trip, you can optionally set a "Minimum Group Size" and "Group Discount Percentage." If a user books enough slots to meet the minimum, the discounted price is automatically applied. This is a great way to attract larger groups.
