Busbud Affiliate Program Description

Earn Up to $100 Welcome Bonus with Travelpayouts

New affiliates earn up to $100 in bonuses on top of regular commissions, just for natural milestones:

Sign up and install Drive (Travelpayouts’ AI-powered monetization tool) → +$25

First $100 earned → +$25

Reach $1,000 → +$50


Drive automatically optimizes your content monetization, so it’s worth installing regardless. The bonuses just make it a no-brainer.

Get Started

The Busbud Affiliate Program lets you earn money by promoting a global bus and train booking platform. With Busbud, your audience can search and book tickets in over 80 countries, making it a great fit if you run a travel blog, website, or social media page.

When you join, you earn a commission every time someone books through your link (usually around 2-5% per sale). The Travelpyouts offer is currently at 5%, while the CJ program starts at 2%. The cookie lasts about 7 days, so you still get credit if users don’t book right away.

You can join through networks like CJ Affiliate or Travelpayouts. However, Travelpayouts is often the better option, as it can offer higher overall earning potential across its platform and typically has a lower minimum payout (around $50), making it easier to access your earnings.

Once approved, you get access to tools like links, banners, and widgets, plus a dashboard to track your clicks, bookings, and income in real time.

Busbud supports multiple languages and routes worldwide, so you can reach a global audience. If you create travel content, this is an easy way to turn your traffic into extra income.
