How much commission do Lakpura influencers earn?

Lakpura pays a 5% commission on the total invoice value of every booking made using your unique discount code. Commissions are calculated at the end of each calendar month and paid out to an account of your choice.

Do my followers get a discount if they book through my link?

Yes. Each influencer partner receives a unique discount code that gives their followers a 5% reduction on any experience purchased through Lakpura. The discount applies at checkout and is valid on the full catalogue.

What follower count do I need to join the Lakpura influencer programme?

Lakpura does not publish a fixed minimum follower count. Applications are assessed on content quality, relevance to travel in Sri Lanka, and audience engagement. Micro-influencers with a highly targeted travel audience are considered alongside larger accounts.

Which platforms are accepted — blog only, or social media too?

The programme is open to independent travel blogs, YouTube channels, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook travel pages, podcasts, and newsletters. The key criterion is that your content reaches an audience with an interest in travel, particularly in Sri Lanka or the wider Asia region.

How do I track my referrals and bookings?

When you join, Lakpura assigns you a unique tracking code embedded in your personalised link. This code records every click and completed booking that originates from your content. A monthly statement details all bookings and the commission amount due.

How long does the application review take?

Lakpura aims to review applications promptly. After emailing hello@lakpura.com with your channel URL, you can typically expect a response within a few business days, though timelines may vary during busy periods.

Can influencers outside Sri Lanka apply for the programme?

Absolutely. International creators whose audiences include travellers considering a Sri Lanka trip are welcomed. Commission payments can be made internationally to a bank account or payment platform agreed at sign-up.

What types of Sri Lanka experiences can I promote through Lakpura?

Lakpura's catalogue covers city tours, wildlife safaris, water-based activities, adventure sports, wellness retreats, cultural experiences, and more. All experiences are instantly bookable online, which makes the conversion path from your content to a confirmed booking straightforward for your audience.

Influencer Partner Programme

Lakpura maintains Sri Lanka's largest instantly bookable inventory of locally operated experiences — from Sigiriya rock fortress tours and wildlife safaris to coastal adventures and cultural day trips. If you run a travel blog, YouTube channel, or social media account with an engaged following, the Lakpura Influencer Partner Programme gives you a straightforward way to earn from the content you are already creating.

How does the Lakpura influencer programme work?

The programme is built around two simple tools: a unique tracking code and a unique discount code, both assigned to you when you join.

Tracking code: Embedded in any link you share, it identifies every click and booking that originates from your content.
Discount code: Your followers apply this code at checkout to receive a 5% discount on any experience they purchase through Lakpura.
Your commission: For every booking completed using your discount code, you earn 5% of the total booking invoice.
Payment: Earned commissions are calculated at the end of each calendar month and transferred to any account you specify — bank transfer, PayPal, or another method agreed upon sign-up.

There are no upfront costs, no minimum traffic thresholds to maintain once accepted, and no cap on how much you can earn.

What kind of content performs well with Lakpura experiences?

Sri Lanka's diversity of attractions means that almost any travel niche connects naturally with something in the Lakpura inventory. Nature and wildlife writers find strong reader interest in destinations like Udawalawe National Park and Wilpattu National Park. Adventure-focused creators do well with white-water rafting, hot-air ballooning, and deep sea fishing. Food and culture writers can draw on the island's remarkable culinary traditions and festivals like the Esala Perahera.

Audiences planning a Sri Lanka itinerary typically look for experiences that are easy to book, reliably operated, and locally knowledgeable — all attributes Lakpura's curated inventory is designed to deliver.

Who qualifies for the programme?

Lakpura reviews each application individually rather than applying a rigid follower-count rule. The team looks primarily at content quality, audience relevance to travel in Sri Lanka, and posting consistency. Qualifying platforms include:

Independent travel blogs and editorial websites
YouTube travel channels
Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook pages focused on travel, food, or adventure
Podcasts and newsletters with a travel-interested readership

You do not need to be based in Sri Lanka. International creators whose audiences include potential visitors to the island are equally welcome to apply.

What experiences can you promote?

Lakpura's bookable catalogue covers the full breadth of Sri Lanka travel. A non-exhaustive sample of popular categories:

Category	Example experiences
City & cultural tours	Colombo, Kandy, Galle guided day tours
Wildlife & nature	Elephant safaris, whale watching, national park game drives
Water activities	Madu River Safari, snorkelling, deep sea fishing
Adventure	Hot-air ballooning, tuk-tuk safaris, zip-lining
Wellness & yoga	Yoga tours, Ayurvedic retreats
Hill country	Tea estate visits, train journeys, Horton Plains hikes

Because Lakpura's inventory is instantly bookable online, your audience can go from reading your content to confirmed reservation in minutes — a friction-free path that improves conversion and, by extension, your commission earnings.

Why partner with Lakpura specifically?

Sri Lanka has many tour operators, but Lakpura operates its own ground services rather than reselling third-party packages. That means consistent quality control, real-time availability, and a support team your followers can reach directly. For an influencer, recommending a partner whose service quality reflects well on your own reputation matters as much as the commission rate.

Lakpura has worked with international media, travel bloggers, and content creators across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. The programme is designed to be low-maintenance on your side: share the link, let the tracking do its work, and receive a monthly statement with a clear breakdown of bookings and earnings.

How do I apply to join the Lakpura influencer programme?

The application process is intentionally simple. Send an email to [email protected] with the URL of your blog, channel, or primary social profile. The Lakpura team will review your content and respond to let you know whether your platform is a good fit for the programme. If accepted, you will receive your tracking code, discount code, and a short guide to getting started.

There is no application fee and no long-term commitment required.
