Why Travel Counsellors choose to integrate with Dingus®?
“We currently book all hotels through tour operators and wholesalers, so hotels have little or no visibility in our production… By integrating with Dingus® and working directly with hoteliers through connectivity, we will be able to channel sales to partner hotels, working closely together on strategies that drive growth for both brands.
In the same way, hotels will have better visibility of our production and will be able to more effectively target marketing funds to those who actually book their product.”
Dingus® Connectivities
We are dedicated to each of these integrations with the aim of achieving maximum profitability, integrating and maintaining all the functionalities required by our customers and partners. We do this using the Dingus® API, based on standard protocols, to adapt to the technical, commercial and operational needs of each distribution channel, optimising it for the more than 1,400 hotels connected and 380,000 rooms available.
Strategy: hotel-Dingus®-partner
As a technology partner, we actively listen to hoteliers to understand their needs and objectives, as well as to distribution channels with their own motivations, growth objectives in target destinations, diversification and expansion of their market… We seek to align a strategy for all, based on innovation to ensure the most advanced and competitive product offering, business knowledge in tourism and technology, expansion and internationalisation.
