Accommodation Members’ Update – September 2023

The Expedition Project is only possible thanks to supporters and partners like you throughout South Africa.

Below will include how to check and update your listing, how to register your free partner membership plan, how to help with our online courses, and how to check other partners and use our road trip planner.


Update Your Listing

Three things to know about your listing which you can find here:

  1. Check and update your listing from time to time by emailing us any new or extra information
  2. Look out for direct enquiries via the enquiry form you may have activated on your listing page – this will go directly to your own inbox
  3. Look out for indirect enquiries that may come in via promotions and advertising we do for you. We transparently promote how to get in touch with you so you may not realise a potential guest has come via us or our promotions so please do ask guests where they heard about you – this will really help us!

Free Partner Membership Plan

For South African residents we have a specific membership plan providing access to a whole host of courses, livestreams, blogs and travel support and for our partners, we have an even better membership plan.

We are not yet at the stage where you can use your TEP account and membership to update your own listings and add your own posts and updates, but we can offer you the below:

All you need to do is register here and I will activate your own account and Free Accommodation Membership Plan.
You can then get friends, family and guests to sign up for their own Free South African Residents Membership Plan here.


Earn Commission By Telling Guests About Online Courses

One way we are trying to remain financially sustainable as well as promote sustainable living, environmental education, wildlife conservation and more is by the creation of our award-winning online courses.

By using your Partner Membership Plan mentioned above, you can have access to a number of our courses for free and other heavily discounted, you can also show guests what is available and then the fun part – you can give them an online coupon code to use which will a) enable a discount for them and b) earn you commission.

Featured Partners will get coupon codes which will enable a 30% discount for their guests, friends and family and it will earn them a 20% commission on the sale.

All Other Accommodation Partners will get coupon codes which will enable a 15% discount for their guests, friends and family and it will earn them a 10% commission on the sale.

Here are some of the courses available:


Explore Other Partners and Use Our Route Planner

We have been talking about our new Route Planner for so long now, something that could allow our visitors to create their road trip and allocate their favourite projects, restaurants and accommodations visually on the map. 

When in the “Explore” section, they would only need to add the partner or project to their favourites (once their TEP account has been created). After that, they can allocate their favourites onto the South African map. 

As you can see on the map above, our featured accommodation partners create a good loop around South Africa, but we will soon start to create new itineraries relevant to the travellers’ interests. 
This new feature will allow us to connect more partners to our projects and drastically increase your visibility.
