The Problem
A broken system — and everyone knows it
Three structural failures have kept travel agents underpaid, independent hotels disadvantaged, and commission payments perpetually disputed.
Agents do the work. Agents get nothing
The 10% commission goes entirely to the agency. Agents earn nothing directly, so they have no reason to recommend one hotel over another — and every reason to negotiate rates down to impress clients.
Independent hotels lose a fight they shouldn't have to lose
With no personal incentive for agents, independent hotels are consistently deprioritized in favor of large chains. OTAs then take an even larger share, further eroding margins.
Commission tracking is broken
Delayed, disputed, or missing payments are still common. The result is wasted time, strained relationships, and a process no one fully trusts.
The solution
A three-sided platform that realigns everyone
AgentVisa is a three-sided marketplace platform that realigns incentives across agents, agencies, and hotels through transparent, real-time commission management. It does not disrupt existing commission structures. It adds a layer on top of them that rewards the one party who has always been left out.
For Agents
Finally, you get paid for what you do
Earn direct commission on every booking you register through the platform
Real-time visibility into earnings, pending commissions, and payment status
A simple three-step process: receive your confirmation number, register the booking, claim your commission
For the first time in your career, you have a direct financial reason to recommend specific hotels and protect their rates. Your earnings grow when the booking value grows.
For Hotels
Turn agents into your strongest sales channel
Pay an additional commission directly to agents, on top of the standard agency commission, and instantly become the preferred choice.
Agents are now financially motivated to book you, defend your rates, and shift share away from your bigger competitors.
The extra commission pays for itself the moment an agent stops negotiating your rate down — higher rate, more bookings, better margin.
Real-time commission tracking means agencies always know exactly what they are owed and when. No more delays. No more disputes. No more damaged relationships.
Big hotel chains cannot move fast enough to offer any of this. You can. That is your edge.
For Agencies
Keep your commission. Eliminate the friction
Receive your standard commission, completely undisrupted.
Real-time tracking of all pending and paid commissions — no more chasing hotels for delayed payments.
A clear claims process that protects and strengthens your agency-hotel relationships.
Improved agent motivation and productivity within your own teams, because your agents now have personal skin in the game.
Mohamed Nady — Founder & CEO
25 years inside the industry he's changing
His insight into the commission problem is not academic. He negotiated commission agreements. He sat across the table from agencies disputing delayed payments. He watched agents recommend competitors because they had no reason not to. He saw the system from inside — and spent years thinking about how to fix it.
The death of his close friend Kamal — a travel agent in Saudi Arabia who passed away young, leaving four children in Egypt with no financial safety net — was the moment that moved AgentVisa from an idea to a mission.
A network built over 25 years, not a launch campaign
Nady's network spans thousands of travel agents, agency owners, and hotel revenue managers built over a quarter century in the field — across the Middle East, the United States, and Europe. This is not a cold-start business chasing its first customers. AgentVisa launches with direct access to independent hotel decision-makers and established agent communities across four continents. No advertising spend required to open those first doors. The founder simply picks up the phone.
