Now onboarding: IDA Agent Network

You've been recommending IDPs for free for years. Time to get paid.

Every foreigner who rents your car asks the same question: "Do I need a special license?"

You've said yes a thousand times — and sent them somewhere else to buy it.

That somewhere else made $20. On a customer you brought them.

The $20 should be yours.

Apply — takes 5 minutes

The size of it

5 million foreigners drove a rental car in Indonesia and Thailand last year.

Most needed an International Driving Permit. Most bought it from a Google result.

Not from the person renting them the car.

Not from the hotel that checked them in.

Not from the travel agent who booked the trip.

That's the hole we're filling.

How it works

You sell. IDA issues. We run everything in the middle.

  1. 01

    Customer buys through your link, counter, or checkout.

  2. 02

    IDA ships the permit in 24 hours.

  3. 03

    $20 lands in your ledger.

  4. 04

    1st of each month, we wire it. USD.

No inventory. No fulfilment. No support tickets. You sold it. We did the rest.

Now the part that compounds

Invite them. When they sell, you earn $5.

You know other operators. The hotel next door. Your cousin's tour company. The driving school down the street.

Five friends, twenty sales a month each — that's $500 landing in your account while you sleep.

The top agents in our network earn more from the people they invited than from their own customers.

That's not an accident. That's the design.

What it costs you

Nothing.

No setup fee. No monthly fee. No quota. No exclusivity. No lock-in.

Try it for a month. Cancel with 30 days' notice.

We only make money when you make money.

Who this is for

If your customers cross borders, your customers need IDPs.

Pilot is Indonesia and Thailand. Priority is car rentals and licensed travel agents. Hotels, tour operators, concierge desks, driving schools — case by case.

That's the whole qualification.

FAQ

Dive behind the scenes of Expedio and the IDA Agent Network.

What is Expedio?
Expedio is the agent network platform for the IDA Agent Network — the program through which the International Drivers Association distributes the International Driving Permit (IDP) to operators who already serve foreign customers. Expedio runs the agent side (applications, dashboards, tier management, commissions, payouts); IDA runs the product side (issuing the IDP, approving agents, end-customer support).
Who can become an Expedio agent?
The current pilot prioritizes operating car rental businesses and licensed travel agents in Southeast Asia (Indonesia and Thailand). Tourism, hospitality, relocation, concierge, and driving-school operators are also in scope. Individual creators, freelancers, and enterprise multi-location operators may be considered as the program expands. No minimum revenue or follower threshold.
How much can I earn with Expedio?
You earn $20 on every direct IDP sale to your customers. Network-tier agents earn an additional $5 on every sale from operators they onboard into their agent network. Anchor-tier agents earn +$7 on every Network sale and +$5 on every Direct sale in their network. Use the scorecard above to model realistic monthly revenue for your specific customer volume.
Is there a fee to join?
No. No setup fee, no monthly platform fee, no sales quotas, no exclusivity. Cancel anytime with 30 days' notice. Commissions that have cleared the 30-day refund hold remain yours; commissions still in hold at termination are forfeited (unless IDA terminates without cause). Expedio earns by keeping a share of each product's per-sale fee — not by charging agents.
How long does approval take?
IDA reviews applications within 48 hours. Once approved, your account manager walks you through the dashboard, sales collateral, and your first month's playbook. Your first sale can ship the same week.
When and how do I get paid?
IDA settles payouts monthly on the 1st for commissions that cleared the 30-day refund hold, once your balance reaches $50. Payments via bank transfer, PayPal, or local e-wallet — all in USD. Full statement and commission ledger live in your Expedio dashboard.
