How Classic Trip works
Classic Trip is a multi-tenant travel marketplace. Passengers book instantly. Partners list and manage their services. Promoters earn commissions. Everything runs through one platform.
For Passengers
Search, book, pay and receive your ticket — in under 5 minutes.
Find your route or service
Search verified buses, accommodation, agent-supported flights and safe local rides. Compare dates, total prices, policies, availability and verified providers before you book.
Pick your seat or room
Choose a bus seat, stay or Airbnb home, flight offer, local-ride class, tour date, rental vehicle, or cargo service. Inventory, capacity, dates, weight limits and quoted prices are checked by the server before payment.
Pay with mobile money or card
We accept M-Pesa, MTN, Airtel, Visa, Mastercard and bank transfer. Payments are secured and split automatically between the platform and the partner.
Instant ticket delivery
Receive the correct confirmation for the service: bus ticket, stay voucher, flight e-ticket, ride receipt, tour voucher, rental voucher or cargo receipt. Guest bookings remain securely retrievable without compulsory registration.
Show QR at boarding
Use the correct fulfilment flow: QR boarding for buses, verified stay check-in, agent-supported flight documents, protected ride pickup, tour check-in, rental vehicle handover, or cargo shipment acceptance.
Track bookings & leave reviews
Create a free account to see all bookings, request refunds, reschedule, and leave reviews. Or use the ticket lookup for guest bookings — no account needed.
For Partners
Verified bus companies, stay businesses and individual hosts can list and sell on Classic Trip.
Pick the right plan for your size
Eligible bus operators, accommodation providers, accredited flight agents, boda riders, car drivers, fleet owners and mobility companies can apply without a subscription. Service-specific verification controls activation, assignments and payouts; commission is charged only on completed business.
Set up your company profile
Complete the intelligent service-specific application. The platform requests only the legal, safety, vehicle, property, route, agency or settlement details required for the selected service, then routes the application through Super Admin verification.
Manage bookings in real time
Your partner dashboard shows all bookings, seat manifests, passenger lists, payment status, and cancellations. Driver and operations staff get their own role-specific dashboards.
Automated payout splitting
The platform retains 0% from completed bookings and records the split in the ledger. The partner receives 100%. A valid promoter reward is funded from the platform commission.
For Promoters
Earn the commission rate configured by the Super Admin on eligible bookings made through your referral link.
Apply to become a promoter
Sign up on Classic Trip, then apply to the promoter program. Once approved, you receive a unique referral code and a QR card you can print or share digitally.
Share your referral link or QR
Share your referral code or QR on social media, at bus stations, stays, or anywhere travellers are. Every booking made with your code earns you a commission.
Earn on eligible bookings
Commission is credited to your Classic Trip wallet automatically after the booking is confirmed. Withdraw at any time to mobile money or bank account.
Frequently asked questions
No. You can complete a booking as a guest. Your ticket is sent to your email, WhatsApp, and SMS. You can retrieve it anytime at /tickets with your booking reference.
Log in and go to My Bookings. Select the booking and click "Request Refund". Refunds are reviewed by our support team and processed to your original payment method within 3–5 business days.
The Super Admin controls the settlement percentages in one platform setting. The checkout and payout ledger use that same record, so no page or form can invent a different fee.
Bus, stays, agent-supported flight and local-mobility services are active. Each offer appears publicly only after the required inventory, verification, pricing, payment and operational controls are complete.
Classic Trip currently covers East Africa including Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi, with expansion to more African markets planned.
