What your host agency controls and what you control

Who to contact for what when your agency works under a host agency.

Written by Ken Ducusin

Your host controls

  • The host split (some hosts lock it in Tern)

  • When and how you get paid commission

  • Membership fees and pricing

  • Whether your seat is host-paid

  • Fields required before a booking reaches them

You control

  • Your agency's details

  • Your own split, and your agents' splits

  • Your bookings and which credential you pick

  • Your Tern settings and preferences

Who to contact

  • Your host: when you'll be paid, how you're paid, fees, changing your host split, adding a supplier to their list.

  • Tern support: how Tern works, errors in Tern, getting your setup right.

Common questions

When will I get my commission? Your host decides when and how it pays you. In Tern, received commission shows once the payment is logged.

Does my host pay me through Tern? Ask your host how it pays commission.

Can I change my host split? Only if your host lets you. If the field is locked, contact your host.
