Dear BitBook community!
We have finalized the due diligence of a new partnership for inventory and booking technology. I'd like to share the booking engine with you for testing purposes only.
This is to see if we like it more then the current partnership we have with Priceline/Booking. I'd like to provide some Pro's and Con's here.
Pro's
- Overall better booking experience
- In our testing, price was around 50% of the time better and 50% of the time worse, so overall pretty good
- You can search on Hotel names in the search bar directly.
- better Map
- Design looks better
Con's
- No Flights, or car rental possible
- Lot of work to integrate with our system
- Not a partner that is as well known as Booking
- We are forced/required to have "in partnership with" in the header for laptop/desktop, so from a branding standpoint not as good
- Revenue deal made is slightly better with priceline
Please have a look for yourself and provide us with your feedback. Again I want to reemphasize this is only for testing purposes, bookings do work but do not generate any BBT reward.
