Many hotels believe that Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) are the best way to generate bookings, as they often lead to a high volume of reservations with minimal effort. However, after accounting for OTA commissions, the revenue hotels receive from these bookings is significantly reduced compared to direct bookings.
Metasearch offers a solution by allowing you to sponsor your hotel across multiple OTAs with just a monthly management fee. This approach drives direct bookings through targeted advertising that leads directly to your booking engine. With Metasearch, you can effectively reduce your reliance on OTAs and say goodbye to their commissions.

-Automatically attract the most engaged searchers in your market with intelligent bidding that adapts based on their likelihood to book and your price parity status.
-Don't pay to advertise that you don't have the best rate. Triptease Metasearch is the only service on the market that can remove your direct price from the metasearch auction when you're being significantly undercut by OTAs, saving you money and protecting your brand.
-Price Match detects when you're being undercut and automatically discounts your price by just enough to win the direct booking. You control the discount %, so you can protect your margins while still improving direct volumes.
-Available on both pay-per-stay and licence fee payment structures. Unlike many providers, Triptease will be completely unaffected by Google's removal of cost-per-stay (CPA) bidding. We use our own advanced algorithms which are independent of Google (and out-perform them too). Triptease clients will enjoy uninterrupted performance whatever their preferred billing model.
