The Evolution of Hotel API Integration

In the early days of online travel companies pioneered the concept of hotel API integration. Their platforms allowed travel agencies to access hotel inventories, but the process was often cumbersome:

  • Multiple Integrations: Each supplier had its own API, requiring travel agencies to undertake numerous, time-consuming integrations.
  • Data Inconsistencies: Variations in data formats led to synchronization issues, causing discrepancies in availability and pricing.
  • Technical Support Variability: Support quality differed between providers, leading to prolonged downtimes and unresolved technical issues.
  • Complex Pricing Structures: Hidden fees and intricate pricing models made cost management challenging.
  • Limited Scalability: Expanding offerings required additional integrations, each presenting its own set of challenges.

This fragmented landscape posed significant hurdles for travel businesses aiming to offer a seamless booking experience.
