Plum Guide

Plum Guide is a curated vacation-rental marketplace for travelers who care less about browsing endless listings and more about booking a home that has already passed a quality screen. Couples, families, luxury-travel planners, remote workers, and design-minded travelers use it to find apartments, villas, townhouses, cottages, and longer-stay homes in sought-after destinations. The brand positions itself around inspection, selection, guest support, and protection when a stay goes wrong, which makes it different from broad rental marketplaces built mainly around scale.

The product is strongest for trips where the home is part of the experience: a Paris apartment with character, a Tuscany villa for a family gathering, a London townhouse for a longer stay, or a Los Angeles home with enough space for work and leisure. Plum Guide's public pages describe a collection of more than 30,000 vetted stays in 40-plus destinations, with local experts accepting a small share of homes. That gives travel publishers specific angles around quality filters, premium vacation homes, destination guides, and comparisons with open rental marketplaces.

Publishers apply from Plum Guide's affiliate page, which routes applications through Partnerize. After approval, affiliates choose the relevant Partnerize campaign for their payout currency and promote Plum Guide homes with approved links, creative, feeds, or API-supported listing data. Plum Guide says applicants need reputable sites and reserves the right to decline unsuitable applications.

The official affiliate page and help center list a 7% commission on confirmed bookings. The commission applies when the guest stays in the home or apartment; cancelled bookings do not qualify. Tracking is handled through Partnerize, with Plum Guide sending server-side booking events and an additional front-end event on booking confirmation. Payment is only considered after checkout, followed by monthly reconciliation and settlement. Public Plum Guide pages did not publish a cookie duration, payout method, or minimum payout, so those fields stay blank rather than importing third-party values.
