2. How to use WhiteLable?

Travelpayouts has a tool called “White Label” that lets you change the look of the travel search engine on your website and put your own name on it. With White Label, the search results will show up on your website instead of redirecting users to the TravelPayouts site. Click here to learn more

If you have White Label for Traveler, the search results will be shown on a subdomain of your site. Set up in Theme Settings > Affiliate Configure > TravelPayouts. Use the Whitelabel service.

Step 1: Create your White Label subdomain

To get started, you need to create a CNAME Record for your domain in your hosting’s DNS settings. Your White Label subdomain will typically be something like search.yourdomain.com.
In the DNS settings, set the CNAME Record to point to whitelabel.travelpayouts.com and make sure to set up SSL. The setup process may look slightly different if you’re using Cloudflare Nameserver, but the general steps remain the same.

After that, input your whitelabel subdomain, for example search.yourdomain.com, into Theme Options Affiliate Configure > TravelPayouts > Use Whitelabel > Whitelabel Name

Step 2: Set up your White Label on Travelpayouts

Go to Travelpayouts and log in to your accounts, click the Tools on the sidebar

Next, choose the White Label to create a new affiliate program

Scroll down to select the Hotellook and click to the Tools

Then, click to White Label to create a new one. Or you can click this link

Insert your sub-domain on the Domain tab and change the color background of the sub-domain on the Colors tab

Click Save and Updates when finished

Step 3: Create TravelPayout Search Result.

In the WPAdmin, select Page > Add New to create a new page for TravelPayout Search Result. Select TravelPayout Search Result for Template and Publish/Update your page.

Go to Theme Settings > Affiliate Configure > TravelPayouts – Whitelabel Page Search, and select the page name that was created at Whitelabel Page Search.

Finally, you have to choose Travelpayouts service on the search form.
