About Paglipat

What Does Paglipat Mean?

Paglipat (pag-li-pat) is a Filipino/Tagalog word meaning "to transfer" or "to move."

It captures the essence of travel: the movement from one place to another, the transfer between experiences, the journey itself.

We chose this name because travel is about movement β€” and we want to make that movement easier.

Our Mission

Best price wins. No tricks.

Most travel comparison sites rank results based on who pays them the highest commission β€” not who offers you the best deal.

We do things differently.

On Paglipat, the cheapest option is always at the top. Period.

We make money through affiliate commissions when you book β€” the same way other sites do. The difference? We don't let those commissions influence your search results.

You see the actual best price. We earn when you save.

It's a business model that only works if we genuinely help you find better deals.

That's exactly how it should be.

Why We Built This

I'm David, and I built Paglipat because I was tired of the games.

Searching for flights shouldn't require opening 10 tabs, comparing different sites, and wondering if you're being manipulated by hidden commission arrangements.

I wanted one place that searches everything and shows results honestly β€” no hidden rankings, no sponsored placements disguised as "best matches."

Paglipat is that place.

One search. Honest results. The best price wins.

What We Search

Flights

Compare prices from airlines and OTAs worldwide. One-way, round-trip, multi-city.

Ground Transport

Trains, buses, ferries and airport transfers in one place.

Tours & Experiences

Activities, tours, and things to do at your destination.

Everything you need for your trip, honestly ranked by price.

Who Is Paglipat For?

Filipino Diaspora & Global Travelers

Paglipat was born from the Filipino experience of traveling home, but it's for everyone. Whether you're visiting family across the world or exploring somewhere new, we help you find the best deals.

Solo Travelers & Adventurers

Flexible dates? Multiple destinations? We make it easy to compare options and find opportunities you might have missed.

Practical Planners

You know what you want and need to find the best price quickly. One search, sorted by price, no games.

Budget-Conscious Travelers

Every dollar matters. We show you the actual cheapest option, not the one that pays us more.

What Makes Us Different

Best Price First

Results sorted by actual price. The cheapest option is always at the top β€” we don't accept payment to change rankings.

One Platform, Everything

Flights, hotels, transport, experiences, and eSIMs. Plan your entire trip in one place.

Aligned Incentives

We earn affiliate commission when you book. But we never let that influence rankings. You see the best deal; we earn when you save.

Transparent About Our Model

We don't hide how we make money. This page tells you exactly how it works. No surprises.

Real Rewards

Earn cashback on bookings and refer friends. No points games β€” actual money back.

What We Believe

Real Savings

Finding you genuinely cheaper options, not just the appearance of deals.

Simplicity

One search, clear results. No cognitive load required.

Honesty

Transparent pricing, transparent business model. What you see is what you get.

Global Access

Travel should be for everyone. We search globally and support multiple languages and currencies.

Respect for Your Time

We won't manipulate you into clicking around. Find what you need and go book it.

The Problem With Travel Search

Here's what most people don't know: when you search on popular travel comparison sites, the order of results isn't based purely on price or quality.

Provider A: $300 flight, pays 8% commission

Provider B: $280 flight, pays 4% commission

Many sites will show Provider A first because they make $24 vs $11.20

This happens constantly across the industry.

Search results get weighted, "best value" badges get assigned to higher-commission options, and you never know what you're actually seeing.

Paglipat doesn't play this game. Best price first. Always.

The Journey Ahead

Paglipat started as a side project and has grown into something real. We're a small team (mostly just me, honestly) building something we believe in.

We're adding new features, improving search coverage, and expanding to more markets. This is a long-term project, not a quick flip.

If you believe travel search should be honest, you're in the right place.

Thanks for being here.
