The travel industry is constantly evolving – before, just having a great rate on top hotels thanks to working with a bedbank was usually enough to ensure your business stayed competitive.
Now? You know that’s not enough anymore.
To succeed, you need the right products, in popular and up-and-coming destinations, at the right conditions and prices, delivered to the right customer at the right time. That’s a lot of variables that need to be accounted for when it comes to navigating this highly competitive industry.
But today’s traveler is becoming ever more discerning, so demanding more of the travel partners you choose to enable your success is crucial.
Fortunately, at Bedsonline we go beyond the usual scope of a bedbank. Much further. Think access to hard-to-reach markets, global connections to hoteliers and other industry-wide travel experience providers, and time-saving tools to help you earn more!
And that’s not all...
Of course, any relationship formed with a travel partner can be a beneficial one – but it takes a certain level of experience and know-how to be able to truly empower agencies like yours to keep your competitive edge razor-sharp.
This is where Bedsonline comes in.
One of the many advantages of working with us, as a comprehensive travel provider, is that we don’t just buy rooms in bulk and sell them on like any other regular bedbank would. We’ve made it our mission to streamline the entire travel industry, from optimized distribution for our hotelier partners who work with our adjacent company Hotelbeds, through to growing your appeal as travel advisors to end customers.
We don’t just secure hotel rooms at rates and then pass these deals onto you, regardless of all the factors it’s necessary to take into consideration. Our way of working focuses on empowering every single agency we work with to leverage growth opportunities, maximize every basket value with booking-boosting tools, and strategize for success thanks to expert advice from your dedicated Account Manager.
With us, it’s not just ‘right price’. You get access to everything you need to succeed, from rates to availabilities, countless options that suit every traveler, to market-specific insights to build your appeal, and business advice as you go.
We’re a full-service, preferred travel partner offering a comprehensive range of travel products and services! All designed to help you earn more, position you in the competitive market, and boost your success.
Simply tell us your goals as a business, and we’ll work hard to help you get there.

We’ve mentioned before that just having a good rate on a popular hotel isn’t going to cut it – not when it comes to pleasing today’s ever more discerning traveler.
Did you know that 80% of travelers prefer to book the entirety of their trips online? And that 56% research and book activities in advance, with as many as 25% of global travelers doing so four weeks or more before their trip?
That’s a lot of potential revenue you’re missing out on...
To capture this increasing demand, and offer the booking experience travelers are looking for, you need the ability to offer comprehensive trips on demand. This is only really possible if you have access to an extensive back catalogue, and a travel booking platform that allows you to seamlessly add on experiences!
Well, at Bedsonline, we go way beyond just accommodation.
With comprehensive travel solutions thanks to our expansive global portfolio of in-destination experiences, car hire and global transfer route coverage, you can offer customers their ideal trip during their consultations.
That’s 23,000+ experiences in 170+ countries – such as guided tours, theme park tickets and packages, day trips, culturally immersive experiences and more.
This allows you to:

Plus, approaching any travel supplier off your own back doesn’t only carry the risk of having to settle for a worse rate; it may well be that you’ll be turned away. On the other hand, a partner like Bedsonline can negotiate based on the volume of hotels or products they’re likely to sell.
Because we’ve got experience in building long-standing, profitable relationships and connections with key providers across the entire industry, this unlocks a whole world of products and opportunities that boost your appeal to your end customer.
You can rest assured that our eyes are on trends at all times, too, with our powerful recommendation tool Insights, with personalized recommendations tailored to your specific needs and customizable marketing materials available at the touch of a button.
Choose to save, anchor or discard your recommendations, provided by data intelligence, to improve the quality and relevance of the recommendations you’re served. Plus, these features help you reference your favorite recommendations for quick quote and itinerary building!
Want to gain a competitive edge with exclusive, specially contracted offers? At Bedsonline, that comes with the service!
Access specifically negotiated rates, thousands of prices lower than competitors, room exclusivities directly negotiated for Bedsonline partners, and priority availabilities over other platforms, all backed by trusted hotel partners.
Attract customers with exclusive deals during peak periods, and generate demand during off-season, with Bedsonline Exclusive: specially negotiated discounts, only for registered partners.
Our year-round campaigns are also driven by data intelligence and complex algorithms that help determine the best opportunities for your market!
With direct connections to over 100,000 hotels, our registered partners benefit from the best opportunities to capture travelers’ ever-evolving interests.
This means our registered partners get: wide variety, optimal coverage, advisor-only rates, unique offers, and priority availability!
Juggling new enquiries, tricky itineraries and keeping up to date with the season’s latest travel trends, negotiating rates or expanding your catalogue can be challenging.
The benefit of Bedsonline is that we have the time and the connections to meditate with the industry for you. We can broker fantastic deals with travel providers across the industry – not just hotels – offering wide-ranging availabilities and opportunities which would otherwise be left off the table.
Forget keeping track of complex financial records with multiple headache-inducing processes. We make handling multiple financial relationships seamless, consolidating each of these payments down into one invoice, making settlements as simple as pressing a button.
Because we already offer a simplified booking platform with inbuilt cross-selling and upselling features, our payments platform makes your life just as easy. Offering ways to navigate all your payments in just a few clicks, in one place.
Choose between ‘pay now’ and ‘book now, pay later’ options for applicable bookings, and offer flexible rates, and therefore peace of mind, to your clients!
All partnerships should be built on a mutual benefit, which is why when you partner with Bedsonline, you will be rewarded for your growth and loyalty.
A key way we do this is with our Bedsonline Rewards program: a points-based rewards initiative where our registered partners can earn points for every booking, and exchange those for discounts against personal vacations and gift cards!
We also offer incentives throughout the year as part of our seasonal campaigns, to reward booking success, as well as incentives you can share with your clients! Such as extra room nights at no extra cost.
These are incentives you can either pass on to your clients or keep for yourself – whether you choose to share the discounted rate or to make more commission is up to you.
We care about the success of your business, and to help you thrive in the industry we’re pleased to provide you with a dedicated Account Manager. From helping you to devise a business strategy to providing you with personalized insights, your Account Manager will be your secret weapon.
By working together, you and your Account Manager will be able to identify opportunities unique to your business – but to gain that access, you’ll have to partner with us first!
