ABOUT RATE SHOPPING

Competitive Rate Shopping tools monitor and compare your rates with those of your competitors.
Robust reports monitor the future booking horizon to evaluate price positioning across multiple
channels: hotel and brand websites, Global Distribution Systems (GDS), Metasearch sites, and scores
of online travel agencies.

This productivity tool provides competitive market intelligence to help in the pricing and channel
management process. Preferred Travel Group has partnered with industry leading OTA Insight
and Rate360 by Amadeus Hospitality to deliver this tool.
