Hotel-Spider's Provided Description:
"INCREASE YOUR REVENUE WITH THE GDS AND EXTEND YOUR REACH AMONG INTERNATIONAL AND BUSINESS TRAVELERS Global Distribution System (GDS) connect hotels, airlines and car rental providers directly with travel agencies worldwide. Many companies also use them to book rooms for business trips. Global Distribution Systems (GDS) are online reservation systems that enable hotels to make their rooms and prices accessible to a variety of travel agents and websites. The GDS concept originates from the airline sector and was the first technology to enable electronic reservations in the travel industry. It is comparable to a telephone book or registers. The GDS itself does not store any detailed data about your hotel, as this is stored in a Central Reservation System of your choice. The GDS, however, is aware of exactly where they can find which data, thus enabling an agency in Switzerland, for example, to easily access hotel rates and availabilities in Buenos Aires, San Francisco or Cape Town via the GDS. If the hotel offers appeals to a customer, he/she can book it directly on-site at the travel agency."

META Search Connections
Hotel Metasearch Management Software
Metasearch sites are a good option for generating more website visits and direct reservations. Thanks to the metasearch platforms, guests can compare not only various hotel offers, but also intermediary providers for each accommodation. With Google, Trivago and TripAdvisor, travelers can see all offers that exist for your propety, in one place. This enables you to place your direct booking option next to the offers from other platforms, such as OTAs.
Hotel payment services
Payments Processing Software
The hotel industry has still not managed enforcement of payment when a booking is made, as had long been standard for airlines. Charging and guaranteeing credit cards increasingly lead to much effort and an increased risk for hotels.
