START TAKING ONLINE BOOKINGS.
The Exchange offers simple tools enabling offline businesses to start taking direct online bookings through their website and social media. Businesses can manage rates and inventory, easily accept credit card payments for reservations and connect to wider product distribution.
SIMPLE AND TRANSPARENT PRICING.
Pay nothing until you get an online booking. You can opt in to as many distributors as you like and make as many updates as you want. For each online booking, you pay the Exchange a small fee of 3.5% along with any distributor commission due.
A CLICK AWAY.
Trying new channels and reaching new customers has never been easier. Opt in or out of any distribution partners, whether that’s local Destinations, domestic Distributors or international OTAs in harder-to-reach markets.
STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Here are some of the top ones we get asked.
What’s the difference between Tourism Exchange USA and a channel manager?
A channel manager usually syncs bookings and availability and won’t normally have the same capability as Tourism Exchange USA to pull content from across distributor systems.
Channel managers also typically only link to ‘on account’ distributors, rather than to direct booking websites to which the Exchange also connects.
How much does it cost to use?
Tourism Exchange USA operates on a simple commission model. Suppliers load gross rates. Suppliers then pay a 3.5% booking fee to the Exchange for each Exchange-originated online booking and commission to distributors as agreed when you opt into their channels. Distributor commission is clearly displayed prior to opt-in and the 3.5% booking fee is only paid out when a Tourism Exchange USA-originated online booking takes place, never before. There’s no cost to register.
