Agoda and LINE Travel announce partnership to enhance travelers’ experience
Agoda, one of the world’s fastest-growing online booking platforms, today announced its partnership with LINE Travel, a leading online travel metasearch and media app. Under the agreement, Agoda will be the sole travel accommodation supplier for LINE Travel’s userbase in Taiwan.
From 28 November 2018, LINE users in Taiwan can log into Agoda through their LINE accounts to book travel accommodation, from hotels to apartments and vacations rentals. They will also be able to share their travel itinerary with their LINE friends and acquire LINE Points rebates on all qualifying bookings.
“Digitally savvy, mobile-first consumers in Taiwan increasingly turn to one-stop apps like LINE Travel, so we’re thrilled that through this partnership, LINE’s 19+ million customers can access Agoda’s extensive range for properties including hotels, villas, hostels or Agoda homes, to plan their next trip. Not only can they directly make bookings this way, they can also share itineraries with friends in their network.,” said Spencer Low, Managing Director for Greater China at Agoda.
