Wholesalers are not supposed sell below the hotel’s rates. If they do, they’re likely violating their contract with the hotel.

Digital Marketing Platform Recommendation

My team is looking for a digital marketing platform, but most of the ones we've found, like SalesForce and Adobe are way out of our budget. Any recommendations for a DMP that will cost less than 5k a month?Thanks in advance.

Re:Expedia Buys Orbitz for $1.6B in Cash on Thursday February 12, 2015 @02:15PM (#9040701)
While the rates are generally the same because of the rate parity agreement these OTAs have with hotels. One way you can get a better deal is booking direct with the hotels. Hotels can offer loyalty rewards, which is not covered by the rate parity agreement, as well as additional on property benefits. My company, https://universalpoints.com offers a 5% cash back that you can earn on your first stay at participating hotels for booking direct with the hotel. We are also working on adding a service where you can use the cash you've earned for reduced room rates and upgrades.
