Functionality
When a visitor is redirected to the Interhome website using a valid partner link, the partner id is stored in a cookie that is saved in the client's browser.
Subsequent bookings made by that visitor are credited, if the following conditions are met:
- the PartnerID is valid and active
- the PartnerID is valid for the domain used
Validity of partner ids
A PartnerID can only be used with a particular domain.
Example: if you have a PartnerID that was issued in France (e.g. FR701234) you can only use it to link to the French domain (www.interhome.fr). Partners who are operating on several domains have to contact their account manager to set up an international PartnerID.
Additional URLs and redirects
Unless otherwise specified, the following URLs are valid on all Interhome domains and the domain interhome.com is used as an example.
