What Sets Us Apart
After 6+ years operating as Istanbul's specialist B2B hotel wholesaler, we know what agencies need — and we've built our platform around it.
Local Contracts, Not Reselling
We hold direct contracts with 257+ Istanbul hotels — we are not just reselling Hotelbeds or Expedia inventory. Our net rates come from direct hotel negotiations, which means better prices for your agency.
No Markup Transparency
You see the net rate. You set your margin. There are no hidden platform fees or surprise charges. The price shown is what you pay, and you profit the difference you choose to add.
Peak Season Guarantees
During Ramadan, New Year's, and summer high season, most global bed banks run out of allocation. Our direct allotments ensure your groups and FIT bookings go through even when online channels show sold-out.
Istanbul-Specific Expertise
Our team lives and operates in Istanbul. We know which hotels have construction noise, which areas flood during rain, and which properties deliver consistent quality. That local knowledge protects your client relationships.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can my agency get access?
Once you submit your application with valid IATA, TURSAB, or national agency registration, we review and approve within 24 business hours. Most agencies are live and booking the same day.
Do I need a minimum booking volume?
No minimum volume requirements for portal access. XML/API integration partners may be asked to demonstrate booking intent, but there are no monthly minimums or penalties for low usage.
What are the cancellation and amendment policies?
Each hotel has its own cancellation policy, which is clearly displayed before confirmation. We offer full transparency on all policies and our support team assists with amendments at no charge.
Can I book group reservations through the platform?
Yes. Groups of 10+ rooms can be quoted through our group desk. Contact your account manager or use the portal's group booking request form for competitive group rates and dedicated allotment.
Which currencies and payment methods are supported?
We accept USD, EUR, GBP, and TRY. Payment options include bank wire transfer, credit card (Visa/Mastercard), and credit account for pre-approved partners. Qualified agencies can request credit terms from the start of the partnership, subject to a standard credit check and approval.
How does your net rate typically compare to what OTAs show publicly?
Our directly contracted net rates run 15-30% below published OTA prices for the same room category, since OTAs build their own margin on top of the wholesale rate. You set your own markup on our net rate, so your final client-facing price remains competitive even after adding your margin.
What happens if I need to modify a confirmed booking's dates?
Date changes are requested through the portal or your account manager and are checked against the hotel's live availability and rate for the new dates. If the new rate is higher, you pay the difference; if lower, the balance is credited back to your account for future bookings.
Can I book non-refundable rates for lower prices?
Yes. Alongside our standard flexible rates, many hotels also open non-refundable rate plans through our platform, typically priced lower than the flexible equivalent for the same room type. These are clearly labeled before you confirm, so there's no ambiguity about cancellation terms at the point of booking.
Which Istanbul neighborhoods do you recommend for business travelers versus sightseeing clients?
For business travelers, Sisli, Levent, and Besiktas put clients close to corporate offices and conference venues with modern 4- and 5-star inventory. For sightseeing-focused leisure clients, Sultanahmet and Fatih place them within walking distance of Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, and the Grand Bazaar.
Do you provide rate parity across all sales channels?
The net rates on our B2B portal and XML feed are identical — there is no discount for using one channel over another. What varies is your own markup strategy on top, which you control independently for portal bookings versus automated feed pricing.
How far in advance should I book Istanbul hotels during peak season?
For Ramadan, Eid, and summer high season, we recommend confirming bookings several weeks ahead, since allotment for popular 4- and 5-star properties in Sultanahmet and Taksim sells out fastest. Off-peak winter months generally allow confirmation within 24-48 hours even close to arrival.
What documentation do clients need to check in at contracted hotels?
A valid passport matching the name on the booking voucher is required at every hotel we work with. Our vouchers include the guest name, confirmation number, room type, and board basis exactly as registered with the hotel, minimizing check-in disputes at the front desk.
Can I see real hotel reviews or ratings before booking?
Our portal displays each hotel's official star rating along with a brief editorial description based on our team's on-site inspections. We do not aggregate third-party guest reviews directly, but our account managers can share firsthand feedback from other agency partners who've booked the same property recently.
