Founding Partner Programme: 0% commission until 31 March 2027

Company news·4 min read·By Sinan Polat, Founder

PayLater Europe is opening its Founding Partner Programme to independent hotels and wellness businesses on the Côte d'Azur. Partners who join from November 2026 pay no commission until 31 March 2027 and keep 100% of every booking.

Why a founding partner programme?

Every platform faces the same question at launch: why should a business list with you before you have travellers? Our answer is to remove the cost and the risk. During the launch period, partners keep the full value of each booking. The only costs are payment processing fees charged by our regulated payment providers, at most 1.5–2% depending on the payment method, currency and volume.

In return, founding partners help us shape the product. Their feedback on the partner console, the booking flow and the guest experience will guide what we build before we expand beyond the Côte d'Azur.

What founding partners receive

Start small

There is no need to change how you sell today. Hotels can begin with 1 to 5 rooms on the dates of their choice, for example during quieter weeks. Beauty and wellness businesses can offer a few appointment slots per week, one or two signature treatments, or a full day in a calm period. Availability can be withdrawn at any time.

Timeline

How to apply

Send an email to hello@pay-later.eu with your business name and address, a main contact, the rooms or services you would like to offer with indicative prices, your available dates or slots, your cancellation terms and a few photos. We will build your page and send you our partnership agreement for signature.
