MSC Cruises Boosts Agent Commission Program

MSC Cruises has restructured its True Partnership program to enable agents to earn as much as 17 percent or more on bookings. Since June 1, agency commissions on MSC Cruises have been based on tiered production levels of Silver, Gold and Platinum.

The levels and coordinating commission rates are determined by net cruise sales revenue. For each agent participating in the True Partnership program, sales and marketing agreements will be developed that will outline sales goals and opportunities for marketing funds and aggressive upfront/retroactive commission levels.

To support agents in the True Partnership program to reach their goals, MSC will provide them access to special rates that allow them to book retail bookings at group rates. In addition, True Partnership agents will have access to a full menu of promotional support through MSC Cruises’ dedicated travel agent website (http://www.msccruisesagent.com/), allowing 24/7 access to communication tools (such as customizable promotional updates) and webinars.

MSC Cruises also provides 10 percent commission on pre-booked shore excursions, air add-ons, hotel packages, select spa packages and insurance.
