Nonprofits

We think travel can have a positive impact on communities. Connect your nonprofit to Painted Circle so our affiliate program can generate funds for your organization.

Here's how it works...

Painted Circle is a new type of travel marketplace. We are helping traveler spending stay local, instead of being drained out by third-party resellers. Our Radius Travel Pass helps local businesses attract guests while giving great value to visitors.

 

Sales of our Radius Travel Pass can also benefit your organization. Painted Circle donates 10% of the purchase price of our pass to nonprofits. Your nonprofit can create a free profile on Painted Circle, and be linked to by any of our partners who are selling our Radius Travel Pass. It's a passive way for you to earn some funds, even if you don't work with tourists or promote our site yourself.

EVERGREEN DONATIONS

Donations to your organization are generated by our affiliate program - it runs 365 days a year without any intervention from you.

LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS

We are a grassroots travel company working with incredible, local travel businesses. And they are looking to support their community and you.

SOCIALLY FOCUSED

Painted Circle is on a mission to make travel a force for good. We look to support socially and environmentally positive organizations.

It all works like a FREE FUNDRAISER

You get to choose how your organization uses Painted Circle so that it works with your culture. Local businesses wanting to support your organization can designate you in their affiliate program, earning you funds when they sell our travel pass. You can also promote our travel pass yourself, using it as a fundraiser. The choice is up to you and what works for your organization.

A message from our founder

Built with purpose as an ethical partner in travel

"I started Painted Circle because I worked as a tour operator for many years and saw the high commissions our business paid to resellers as a HUGE missed opportunity. One day I thought... 'wouldn't it be great to have a platform where all of us operators around the world could come together and cross promote each other and bypass resellers?' Painted Circle was born of that motivation, and the idea that we can create a more circular approach to connecting travelers with places that builds an ecosystem for good, responsible, and even regenerative travel. I built the Painted Circle platform to reflect the values that all practitioners of good travel share: travel must be a force for good, it must be inclusive and welcoming, and that we must work to support balance, collaboration, and empathy."

Our vision

Painted Circle stands apart from mass-market resellers and OTAs - we aim to keep traveler money between travelers and the places they visit and not in our own pocket. Sales of our Radius Travel Pass help fund our platform, and help elevate the businesses and community partners in our network. Being a cross-promotion platform, we empower all businesses on Painted Circle to invite guests to our platform... this creates a little win for Painted Circle and a BIG WIN for everyone in our community.
