After joining hands with India’s leading travel portal, MakeMyTrip, for overseas properties this year, Booking.com has tied up with Paytm. Under this partnership, all domestic and international accommodations available on Booking.com will be available on Paytm, with new offers and promotions.
The portal aims at getting the best price for all types of properties — from bed and breakfast accommodation to five-star suites. Gillian Tans, CEO, Booking.com, said the company expanded by over 70% in India last year and has 22,000 properties registered with it. It aims to continue the same pace of growth this year as well. After China, India is the largest market for the company in the Asia-Pacific region. “We aim to grow at the same rate this year. India is a fast-growth market and is developing a lot. We continue to increase our partners here, and make investments. We have three offices here, and will open the fourth in Kolkata in the second quarter.
