Partnership
Grow with Epic Africa
From hosts and tour operators to agencies, brands and affiliates — there is a way for you to plug into Africa's experiences network.
Ways to partner
Choose your path
Hosts & operators
List your experiences, stays, dining or events and reach travellers across the world.
Travel agencies
Offer curated African experiences to your clients with trusted, bookable inventory.
Affiliates
Earn by referring travellers to experiences they will love through your channels.
Strategic & brand
Co-marketing, integrations and brand partnerships that move the continent forward.
Growth & financial partnerships
Partnerships that put capital and demand behind our hosts
Beyond listing, we work with banks, development finance institutions, fintechs, tourism bodies and sponsors to channel real financial value to our service providers — while growing the supply, bookings and reach that make Epic Africa stronger. Everyone wins.
Grants & funding programmes
Non-repayable funding for onboarding, upgrades and capacity building — including women-, youth- and community-led tourism grants and conservation-linked funds, often co-funded with development partners.
Growth & working-capital loans
Access to affordable credit through our lending partners — working capital, asset financing and advances against confirmed and future bookings to help hosts scale.
Market-access & fee waivers
Reduced or waived commissions and listing fees for new, seasonal or underserved hosts — lowering the barrier to reaching a pan-African and global audience.
Co-marketing & demand boosts
Sponsor- and partner-funded campaigns, featured placement and seasonal promotions that drive bookings to participating hosts at little or no cost to them.
Payment & cancellation protection
Guarantee and insurance partnerships that protect hosts and travellers — from payout assurance to cancellation cover — reducing risk on both sides of a booking.
Capacity-building & enablement
Subsidised training, digital onboarding and tooling — pricing, photography, packaging and revenue management — funded through enablement partners.
Why it works for everyone
Shared incentives, shared growth
These programmes are designed so that value flows both ways. Service providers gain capital, demand and protection that help them grow; Epic Africa grows a richer, more reliable supply of experiences, deeper engagement and lasting partner relationships across the continent.
For service providers
Funding, lower fees, more bookings and reduced risk.
For Epic Africa
Stronger supply, higher booking volume and durable partner value.
