About Rate Landing Pages

Create and distribute custom Rate Landing Pages (RLPs) to promote any negotiated or exclusive rate.

Indispensable for communicating corporate rates, group rates and exclusive promotions to a specific target audience.

Rate Landing Pages let you communicate any pertinent booking and stay details to the target audience, and to provide members of that audience a customized booking experience, as they are able to access your booking engine from their Rate Landing Page with their exclusive rates pre-selected.
