How it works

In addition to airfares, the website allows users to book various types of lodging, including hotels, bed and breakfast, seaside resorts, rest houses, and homestays.

The company collects upfront payment for room nights booked on the company's website or mobile app, an approach known as the Merchant Model in the online travel industry.

The company specializes in providing discounted room rates and offers a "Best Price Guarantee", which promises to match or beat lower prices offered by other vendors.
