Peer-Based Trip Platforms

TRVL Travel Booking Platform Where You Can Earn 10% Helping Others

— May 14, 2016 — World
This peer-to-peer travel booking platform allows users to earn up to 10% of the booking when they help others make plans. Currently in beta mode, startup TRVL is based in the Netherlands.

TRVL is free to use, without any fees or charges. A single screen lets you book accomodations and hotels, activities, flights and other transportation. They aim to make it easy to find the best hotel rooms, as hotels are hand-picked based on location, quality and the TRVL "wow factor." With the P2P travel booking platform, anyone can be a travel agent and benefit from using their site. By booking your own trips, you can cut costs. Their "single page solution" also makes the trip planning process less complicated, not to mention time consuming.
Trend Themes
1. Peer-based Trip Booking - Peer-to-peer travel booking platforms are disrupting the traditional travel agency model by allowing users to earn a percentage of bookings when they help others make plans.
2. P2P Travel Agent - The rise of P2P travel platforms presents an opportunity for individuals to become travel agents and earn income by booking trips for others.
3. Simplified Trip Planning - Single-screen solutions offered by peer-based trip platforms streamline the trip planning process, making it less complicated and time-consuming.
Industry Implications
1. Travel Booking - The travel booking industry needs to adapt to the disruptive innovation of peer-based trip platforms, which are challenging the traditional model and introducing new ways to earn and save on bookings.
2. Hospitality - The hospitality industry can leverage the rise of P2P travel platforms by partnering with them to showcase hand-picked hotels based on location, quality, and the 'wow factor' to attract more bookings.
3. Travel Agency - Traditional travel agencies can consider embracing the concept of P2P travel booking platforms and transform into a hybrid model, allowing their agents to earn income by assisting users on these platforms.
