As British holidaymakers spend almost as much before they travel as when they are abroad on their dream trip, ways to earn cash either during or after the holiday come as a relief. Online trip planning tool, IQPlanner offers fi ve top tips on how to be quids in and make money from travelling. IQPlanner founder and managing director Dmitrijus Konovalovas, said: “Making money out of travel adventures is not the preserve of guide book authors and travel writers, or even of Instagramming millennials, because it’s now easier than ever to do safely and securely.” “You may start by getting back enough cash to buy a coffee but you can soon be in a position to earn enough to make a robust contribution to fl ights, hotels – or whatever else you want to buy! Let your own travel adventures earn you a few bob so you can tick off even more from your bucket list.” IQPlanner – make money when others are inspired to book Make a mint out of that dream holiday by sharing the trip with thousands of people on the online trip planner: just have a great holiday, come back with some superb memories to share – and upload the adventure on to the site. When someone else books a fl ight or accommodation based on that holiday, IQPlanner pays the author up to 70 per cent of their commission. When that booking is a long haul fl ight or swanky hotel, there can soon be enough for a long weekend away or to put towards a fl ight upgrade. Grabr - bring back pre-ordered stuff people want Friends may ask for their favourite coffee from Italy, cheeses from France, clothing and shoes, or even Game of Thrones dolls – all things not easily available at home. Now, trusted travellers can make money through US site Grabr by accepting a buyers’ application for the goods they want at a price they set: it’s up to the traveller to accept the offer, and then the payback comes when the travellers receive, upon the transfer of goods through the system, payment for the service.


Currently, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro and Moscow are among the most lucrative places to visit. Etsy – craft remarkable pieces that evoke far-fl ung shores Gather shells from the beaches of Bali, spices from the markets of Grenada, or even quirky food packaging from around Europe, then back home create evocative and standout handmade pieces to sell. Jewellery or thoughtful keepsakes, evocative of exotic shores or iconic destinations, will stand out on Etsy and attract buyers on the well-established online marketplace. Fiverr.com – make dreams come true and get paid at least ‘a fi ver’ The US site connects people who want something – more or less anything – doing, with those who want to earn a bit of money. For travellers, the options could include sending a postcard from a particular place or buying a specifi c souvenir – or even writing a message on a sign and taking a photo at an iconic spot such as the Eiffel Tower or atop the CN Tower. Lobster media – get paid for holiday photos and videos Leave the selfi e stick to one side and get paid for the high quality photos and videos that would usually only be seen and liked by friends on social media. Lobster Media is a real-time stock photo platform that enables users of social media to upload their content where it can be purchased by others. This approach to securing fresh and unique content, rights-free, appeals to brands, website creators and publishing houses worldwide - from the BBC to Coca Cola - who tire of dated stock photos and paying massive fees for usage. With three billion images uploaded worldwide each day across social media platforms including Facebook, Youtube, Dropbox and Twitter, payments start at about £1.70 so selling a dozen holiday snaps would help cover an airport transfer, a meal out or a round of drinks at a beach bar. Whilst there’s a glut of images showing icons such as Sydney Opera House or the Statue of Liberty, a quirky angle or characterful composition can really stand out and earn more than likes.
