The Klook ANZ team are never too far away for a quick coffee catch up or call! We have team members based in Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland and Queenstown.

The Business Development and Marketing team members are always happy to meet and discuss optimisations to your listing, opportunities to get more exposure through the Klook base, getting the Klook Tribe influencers on a famil to your experience or any big ideas you might have!

As our team is on the ground, we like to do our marketing differently through creative and innovative ways! We don’t just rely on Google on Facebook ads, but rather we love exploring other opportunities in bringing more eyeballs to your activity.

For instance, we connect you to the Klook Tribe of influencers, we work with various government bodies on tourism recovery campaigns, and we produce our own unique content in multiple formats - loads of it, just check out our blog!

After signing up to be a merchant, your account manager will reach out to discuss commercials, next steps and what we need from your end. You will receive a simple product onboarding checklist where we collect your product information such as your API system, images, rates and any other information or unique selling points you’d like us to include. After all, you know your product best!

Our content team will then be able to curate your listing(s) on Klook and you can expect to receive the preview links for you to review within two weeks!

There are absolutely no listing fees on Klook. That means if you don’t see a booking come through from Klook, we won’t charge you.

We also only ask for the most competitive commission rates in the industry. There are no hidden fees when you partner with Klook.

Did you know that Klook is the number one OTA in Singapore? (*According to YouGov Brand Survey 2021). Not only that, we have millions of users in Hong Kong (our founding market) and Greater China, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and we are actively growing in Vietnam, Indonesia and Japan. 

We’ve also expanded our presence to the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States! When you work with Klook, you’ll be getting access to both a domestic audience, but also a global audience from over 500 destinations with your listing and content translated to over 14 different languages. 

Simply chat with one of our team members and share any operational challenges you might be facing, and we will do our best to work together to come up with a solution!

As an example, one of our merchants was experiencing internal issues with manually processing paper bookings by hand. Klook was able to step in and support them with a digital solution utilising the Klook partner app and QR codes.

Want to get access to over 250 trusted influencers and content creators to help promote your product? Say hello to the Klook Travel Tribe! Consumers are increasingly becoming more skeptical of traditional marketing and are more likely to act on peer to peer recommendation from an influencer, rather than a traditional advertisement. With high quality content and a healthy engagement rate, our hand picked Klook Travel Tribe works to showcase your product as unmissable and really stand out from the crowd.

The content they produce can be cross promoted on their social channels (Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook), Klook’s social channels (Instagram, Tiktok, LinkedIn, Facebook) and can be licensed for you to use for your own digital marketing activities. Here are some examples: Hot Air Ballooning, Moonlight Kayaking, Sydney Solstice, Tiny Away. 

Afterpay is also now live on Klook as a buy now pay later option that allows customers to use it as a payment option when checking out online or in-store. Essentially, they would be able to pay off the booking cost in fortnightly instalments. 

This allows customers the flexibility to book an experience immediately, and make payments after the fact. The fact that Afterpay purchases do not attract interest fees is another big benefit over methods like credit cards or loans.

In 2020 and 2021, we saw a large number of travel voucher schemes introduced by the Australian Government to increase bookings in the travel sector. In many cases, travel operators did not have the website functionality to redeem these vouchers. 

Klook was able to partner with travel operators to offer a simple White Label solution so customers could visit their website and transact with the travel voucher schemes. For example, we worked with Dreamworld on the Gold Coast Holiday Dollars, Mayfield Gardens as well as Oakvale Wildlife Park on the Dine & Discover NSW Vouchers too!

Listing your experience on Klook also gives you exclusive access to be featured and heroes across our fun and funky marketing campaigns! Klook partners with some of the largest industry bodies in tourism for further amplification, some of these include - Destination NSW for #LoveNSW, #LoveSydney, Vivid, Tourism Australia for “Go Big” and Visit Victoria for Hot Deals. 

Klook connects with a typically hard-to-reach audience - the millennials and free independent travellers (FITs). Through blog content, video content, influencer famils, regular promotions and partnerships, Klook ensures its marketing stands out from the crowd. For example, Klook partnered with V8 Supercars on a Father’s Day campaign. Klook also supported Viva Expeditions by pushing out the Southern Light Flights. 

Klook has also partnered with non-profits like Humpbacks and High Rises, an NGO based in the Gold Coast dedicated to the protection and research of marine mammals by committing 10% of Klook’s whale watching cruises sales to the organisation for the duration of the whale watching season.
