PTS offers innovative, market-leading trading and compliance solutions to independent travel agents.
At PTS we appreciate there are many travel agencies that are family-run or privately owned and want to embrace their unique business model. PTS supports you on your individual journey.
We are excited to have launched our new innovative solution for experienced independent travel agents. This package is purposely designed to be the most profitable way to sell travel to the UK market, whilst embracing your uniquity. The PTS support includes access to bespoke booking software, full package travel regulation compliance and access to leading suppliers at excellent rates. Our members can add their own suppliers, and we can provide your own ATOL if required. In short, this is the complete package and includes everything you need to run your successful individual travel business.
Protected Trust Services already work with a wide array of independent travel agents, and we know that each one tends to trade in a different manner. We are proud to work with each PTS member as an individual and to embrace each member’s unique approach. For this reason, we have ensured that this PTS package is fully customisable, allowing you to take advantage of the services you need, as and when you need them. This bespoke approach allows us to work with all businesses, so whether you are already trading or just starting your journey as an independent, PTS will work with you to ensure great success.
We have only one requirement for this package – that any independent travel agents must have at least two years experience in the travel industry, or extensive transferable skills.
This complete solution will allow you to both build your travel business and to thrive. In addition, this solution is purely a scaffolding system and enabler, which ensures that you retain 100% of your commission. We are proud to be the only solution of our kind, and we are absolutely delighted with the number of independent agents who have joined us to date.
We look forward to welcoming you too!

As a new travel operator, understanding and complying with the 1992 Package Travel Regulations is an important hurdle to overcome, and the team at PTS were immensely helpful and professional in helping us achieve this. In addition, the software platform was a significant positive in our selection of PTS as our partner. Thanks to all at PTS for your patience as we set up our business.
Great staff, very professional and well prepared. They helped me step by step whilst opening the trust account. Highly recommended.
Really helpful, friendly, and have understood that I'm a really small travel agent and then been sensitive to that fact. If I have any problems they're always there to help!
Excellent partnerships and access to leading travel suppliers are a pre-requisite for any expert travel agent. As such, PTS has an extensive portfolio of trade partners and suppliers which continues to grow. All PTS members can also use their own chosen suppliers alongside the PTS portfolio.
