If you have just started your travel agency, or about to launch it in the next couple of days, you might be confused about building a strong online presence. While there are different ways to integrate flight booking solutions for getting started, the final decision depends on your budget and other preferences.
From two widely used travel products, namely, White Label Travel Portal and Travel API, which one would you consider. Since you are a startup, we recommend you to use white label travel portal. In the couple of years, when you will gain enough experience working in the travel domain, you can go for Travel API integration.
Let’s understand these two products in detail.
White-label travel website, similar to any other travel website allows travel agencies to book flight tickets, hotel accommodations, car rentals, etc. as per schedule and budget provided by the customer. In short, White Label solutions allows the business to place their brand name on the product that is developed by someone else.
White label travel websites are pre-designed templates that allows the travel agencies to put their brand name and use it for flight bookings or hotel reservations.
Travel APIs are independent programs that travel agency can integrate into its existing website or mobile app for displaying live flight and hotel inventories to the customers. Simply put, Travel APIs are custom booking solutions developed on the business-specific requirements of the client.
Though White Label Travel Portal and Travel API are two highly used, different travel booking solutions, but both these terms are accidentally used interchangeably.
Newbies and sometimes established travel businesses prefer using White label websites over Travel API. Let’s discuss why.
White Label travel solutions come with extensive functional capabilities and are ideal for startup businesses who do not want to invest hugely in developing custom travel website. Moreover, it serves as a budget-oriented option for travel agencies as they can begin booking tickets just instantly and start earning profits.
White Label travel portals are cost efficient and the turnout time is usually 3 to 5 days from ordering the product. On the contraty, travel APIs are comparatively expensive and at Travel Portal Development, we build and deliver highly responsive, performance-oriented travel API in 15 to 20 days.
No matter, whether you are dealing with flight booking services only or delivering comprehensive package of travel solutions. White label travel website enables you to operate independently and book flight seats, hotel accommodations, car/ bus rentals, etc. to the customers at best price.
As a new business operator, you might not be as proficient with travel booking solutions and need an easy-to-use alternative to run the business. White label travel websites developed by Travel Portal Development Company are designed keeping in mind the skillset of non-tech business operators and does not demand any technical knowledge.
So, all the above reasons apparently describe why white label travel portals are highly preferred over the travel APIs.
