HOBIDD is a marketing platform for stays and focuses on commission-free direct bookings. With a range of marketing tools, HOBIDD helps Providers reach new Participants.
Many stays are published and then remain largely unchanged. New attention has to be generated again and again through additional marketing activities.
HOBIDD takes a different approach. Published stays can be actively marketed using different booking incentives and marketing tools. Providers remain directly accessible to interested Participants, without booking commissions and without intermediaries.
Continuous booking incentives create new attention and turn published stays into more than static offers.
MEGABIDDS turn price reductions into part of an ongoing marketing campaign. Participants can trigger a reduction through certain interactions, causing the selling price of a stay to decrease step by step.
Each reduction changes the current price while creating a new reason to draw attention to the stay.
The focus is not on the lower price itself, but on the renewed attention generated for the stay with every reduction.
In addition to MEGABIDDS, HOBIDD offers further ways to create targeted booking incentives for published stays.
With BOOK NOW, Participants can immediately book stays and additional services at the displayed price.
With REQUEST PRICE, Participants can make a non-binding price request. Providers then decide which travel period and binding price to offer based on their current booking situation.
With SUGGEST PRICE, Participants can submit their own price suggestions for stays. Providers decide whether to accept a suggestion or make a counteroffer.
On HOBIDD, Providers remain visible with their contact information and can be contacted directly by Participants. An integrated CHAT is also available for questions, special requests and details about a stay.
Booking and payment take place directly between the Provider and the Participant. HOBIDD does not charge a commission.
The Participant relationship, communication and sale remain with the Provider.
Many booking platforms are designed to process bookings through their own platform. Their business model is generally based on earning a share from a successful booking.
HOBIDD takes a different approach. The focus is not on acting as an intermediary, but on marketing stays and creating new opportunities for direct bookings.
HOBIDD does not earn from the sale of stays. Instead, use of the platform is based on transparent pricing plans without booking commissions.
