Power of the middle man

The key problem in the travel industry

1. Percentage

High Commissions

Online Travel Agencies (OTA’s) charge commissions of 15% – 30% and have significant pricing control.

2. Marketing spend

Marketing spend

Combined OTA spending on Digital Marketing is $9 billion. Making it impossible for independent businesses to effectively reach their audience.

3. Lack of Awareness

Benefits
