ASTA Marketing Services, Inc. (AMSI)

AMSI® licensees (Member Advantage Program) provide discounted products and services that are used by our travel advisor and supplier members in their day-to-day operations. All AMSI® licensed vendors must meet rigorous standards for quality and performance, and pricing to ASTA members must be at a discount comparable to or better than the best discount the vendor has available in the marketplace.

AMSI's mission is to be the leader for high-quality travel agency products.

Many of the discounts are available to ASTA members only. We have made sure that these offerings are not only great deals but that they also help you move your business forward. You will find products and services that help you to diversify your revenue, opportunities for bringing in business, ways to better serve your clients and back office savings. These companies and products have met the rigorous standards set by the AMSI Board – a group comprised of ASTA member travel advisors like you – and have been granted preferred vendor status.

The AMSI Board of Directors conducts its business in accordance with the AMSI Bylaws and reports to the ASTA Board of Directors representing the stockholders of AMSI.
