Booking.com’s Connectivity Partner Program (CPP) helps the OTA maintain high-quality partnerships with connectivity providers that enable connected accommodation providers to keep growing their business. It is designed to encourage connectivity providers to take specific actions that benefit the property partners they work with. In return for each action these providers complete, they have the opportunity to advance their position in the CPP. They are also rewarded for offering quality connections and useful products and services, for helping test new products, and for sharing specific feedback.
There are three tiers in the CPP (Standard, Advanced and Premier), and there is a series of minimum values (thresholds) that connectivity providers must meet in order to achieve their desired tiers. Since these tiers reflect providers’ overall performance, a provider’s position can help accommodation partners decide which is the best fit for their business. Connectivity partners can reach higher tiers based on the business value delivered, implementing Booking.com product features, developing a quality connection and engagement with the Booking.com team.
