As a BookingCenter LDS, you’ll provide a booking system for your member properties and Agents in real-time or requested availability; searches via amenity, activity, region, price; or any other criteria you require.

Plus, commissions may be earned or given for booking — regardless of where it is booked: your ‘Portal’, Booking.com, Expedia, Orbitz, Travelocity, an Agent in South Africa, or one in London.
