In-depth review

Booking.com: now on CJ, paying a share of its own commission

Where the program lives now

Booking.com no longer runs a direct affiliate program. Its direct partnerships ended for most partners on June 20, 2025, and the Awin program that replaced them ended on June 30, 2026. Booking.com's Affiliate Partners page now tells new partners to select their region and complete registration with CJ.

What it pays

You earn a share of the commission Booking.com receives from the property, not a percentage of the booking value. That share is widely reported as tiered by monthly bookings, from about 25% of Booking.com's commission up to about 40% for high volume partners. The exact rate, cookie and payout threshold are shown in the program terms inside CJ, not on Booking.com's public pages.

Our take

Still worth having for hotel content, because readers trust the brand. Expect the terms to change, send your links through a redirect on your own domain, and read our full guide to where to apply and the best alternatives.
