Stop Losing 30% of Your Revenue to Intermediaries

Direct Book Travel connects hotels and travel agents directly, eliminating costly intermediaries and putting profit back where it belongs – in your pocket.

Traditional travel distribution is broken. Hotels lose up to 30% of their revenue to multiple intermediary layers, while travel agents struggle with limited inventory access and delayed confirmations. Direct Book Travel eliminates these costly middlemen, creating direct connections that benefit everyone.

Direct Book Travel’s B2B travel marketplace eliminates these pain points by connecting hotels directly with qualified travel agents worldwide, particularly across APAC markets where we’re launching first.

The Problem with Traditional Travel Distribution

The current travel booking ecosystem is riddled with inefficiencies. Hotels typically work through multiple intermediaries – wholesalers, consolidators, and online travel agencies – each taking their cut. This complex chain results in:

30% revenue loss through accumulated intermediary fees
Rate parity issues across different booking channels
Delayed payment cycles affecting cash flow
Limited control over pricing and availability
Reduced profit margins for both hotels and travel agents

Direct Book Travel’s B2B travel marketplace eliminates these pain points by connecting hotels directly with qualified travel agents worldwide, particularly across APAC markets where we’re launching first.
