Use of Voucher Codes
Affiliates may only promote codes that are provided through the Opodo affiliate programme. Generic codes supplied through the Awin account are authorised for use by all affiliates.
Codes supplied directly to an affiliate are only authorised for their use.
Opodo reserve the right to withhold payment of commission if non-authorised voucher codes are used in an affiliate sale. We appreciate that consumers may use voucher codes that they have found via a site other than that which is awarded the sale and this will be investigated before decisions on commission payment are made. Any affiliate found to be displaying unauthorised codes may also have their commission set to zero until the code(s) are removed.
Where voucher codes are issued with an expiry date this should be clearly displayed, and codes should be removed or explicitly marked as expired after this date unless you are advised otherwise. Any affiliates displaying expired codes without marking them as being expired may be suspended from the programme. Please also ensure that you observe the IAB voucher code best practice guidelines.

- Affiliates who wish to build a listing should contact us prior to undertaking any actions.
