GigSky and the Travel Agent Program


In the travel sector, offering clients practical and cost-effective solutions to stay connected during trips is an increasingly demanded competitive advantage. GigSky’s travel agent program was created with precisely this goal in mind: to provide tourism professionals with a simple system for offering international data plans via eSIM, earning commissions on every sale and enhancing the travel experience.

During an overseas trip, accessing the internet is no longer a luxury but a necessity. It is essential for checking flight schedules, navigating cities, communicating, working, or simply sharing moments on social media. It is precisely on this concrete need that GigSky’s travel agent program is based—an opportunity designed for industry professionals who want to offer their clients an additional, valuable, innovative, and economically advantageous service while earning attractive commissions along the way.

GigSky has developed a specific affiliate program for travel agencies, travel consultants, OTAs, and travel service providers. The principle is simple: allow every travel professional to offer their clients GigSky eSIM data packages, helping them avoid exorbitant international roaming costs while generating additional income for themselves.

According to the company, clients who choose GigSky can save up to 90% compared to plans offered by traditional mobile operators. A significant figure that transforms the travel agent into a true global connectivity consultant. Those who join the program receive a personalized dashboard with a unique reference code to share with their clientele. Every sale made through that code entitles the agent to a direct commission, with a rewards system that grows as sales increase.

Enrollment in the program is designed to be quick and hassle-free: simply fill out a short form to access the partner portal. Once approved, agents receive their own dashboard from which they can monitor performance, commissions, and sales.

The affiliate link can be shared via email, during client consultations, in personalized quotes, or as part of a complimentary package. It is also possible to purchase eSIM packages in bulk at a discounted price and distribute them directly to clients, making the service even more accessible and professional.

Agents earn on every plan sold, without any upfront cost, and with the possibility of accessing increasing benefits based on the number of sales. The program features a tiered structure: starting with a 10% commission, which rises to 15% after 20 sales, to 20% after 100 sales, and remains at 20% even at the platinum level, reached after surpassing 1,000 sales. Each tier change includes extra bonuses ranging from $100 to $1,000, along with reserved promotions and dedicated incentives.

What makes this program truly effective is the perceived value from the end customer. GigSky offers flexible eSIM packages ranging from 500 MB up to 50 GB, with daily or unlimited plans, activatable directly via app and usable in over 190 countries. The app itself is designed to be always accessible, even without data connection, ensuring total control over one’s line wherever one is located.

And it’s not just about terrestrial travel: GigSky is one of the few operators in the world capable of offering connectivity even in flight and at sea, thanks to partnerships with over 200 cruise ships and 20 airlines. It is a unique offering that opens new scenarios—especially for agencies operating in luxury tourism, business travel, or cruises.

From the agent’s perspective, in addition to the commission, the program provides ready-to-use marketing tools, ongoing training, access to promotional resources, and above all, the possibility to build customer loyalty through a useful, tangible service that easily integrates into the booking experience. There is also the option to offer complimentary eSIM packages: for example, for only $3 per traveler, an agent can gift a data plan at the time of booking, turning it into an exclusive benefit. A small gesture that can make a difference in the perception of service and increase the likelihood of rebooking.

In the eSIM market, various players are emerging, but not all offer the same guarantees. GigSky is not a simple reseller; it is a “Heavy MVNO,” a virtual operator that directly manages its own network. This means that in case of problems, technical support is real and competent, capable of analyzing and quickly resolving any issues related to installation or functionality.

Another distinctive aspect is the uniqueness of the eSIM: unlike other providers that require installing a new eSIM for each plan, GigSky allows customers to use the same one, activating new data packages according to the trip. Technical simplicity that makes a difference, especially for less tech-savvy users.

GigSky works with multiple networks per country, ensuring that customers always access the best available connection. If one network fails, the system automatically switches to another. Additionally, partnerships with high-profile brands, including Apple, Visa, international airlines, and even the U.S. Department of Defense, attest to the service’s reliability and strength.

The travel agent program is designed to be adaptable to every business model. Traditional agencies can easily integrate connectivity into their offerings, creating comprehensive travel packages. Online platforms can automate the affiliate link insertion in booking processes or post-purchase materials.

Even those who handle corporate travel can find a strategic ally in GigSky: eSIMs allow teams on the move to remain always operational, without additional costs or configuration issues. Through the partner portal, one can manage groups, bulk orders, usage reports, and tailored requests.

One of GigSky’s key objectives is also to contribute to spreading awareness of eSIMs, which remain unfamiliar to many users. Only about 25% of consumers know what an eSIM is, and even fewer are aware of the savings and advantages it can provide. For this reason, GigSky supports its partners in the educational phase as well, offering ready-to-use content, guides, videos, and training tools to share with customers.

Each agent can therefore become an ambassador of a technology that genuinely improves the travel experience—earning while reinforcing his or her positioning as a value-oriented, up-to-date professional.

In an increasingly competitive market, standing out is not just a matter of price or offers. It is a matter of added value. GigSky’s travel agent program represents a concrete opportunity to transform a modern necessity—staying connected—into a premium, useful, and profitable service.

Offering clients simple, secure, and cost-effective global connectivity means improving the overall experience, increasing satisfaction, generating positive feedback, and ultimately building stronger and more lasting relationships. GigSky has paved the way for a new approach to selling travel services: those who seize this opportunity can not only increase their earnings but also become benchmarks for a truly comprehensive travel experience.
