How Early 2024 Deals work
Our data shows that travellers are 55% more likely to search for properties with promotions. Early 2024 Deals allow you to capture this demand by offering at least 15% off your room or unit rate to motivate travellers to book at the start of the year. Partners based in Asia need to offer at least a 20% discount to join this deal.
You can choose which specific rooms or units and Rate Plans this discount applies to. Early 2024 Deals only stack with the Genius discount. Opting in to this deal is an effective way to strengthen your overall pricing strategy by targeting key travel moments, and setting yourself up for success in the new year.
