Three ways Talixo helps online travel brands unlock revenue

In the face of slowing growth, increased competition and diminishing margins, the battle for market share in online travel is only growing fiercer.

As a result, revenue diversification through ancillary services is becoming more and more vital for online travel brands catering to travelers that are seeking greater choice and personalization at the click of a button.

So we've put together a quick guide on how Talixo's pre-booked rides help online travel businesses unlock revenue.

Connect traveler experiences

Nothing takes the stress out of the start or end of a trip like a private airport transfer. But let’s face it - the travel experience doesn’t start at the airport or end at the hotel.

2024 was the year travelers indulged their desire to explore "off the beaten track". And with even more demand for authentic travel experiences heading into 2025, being able to offer access to lesser-known destinations is going to be a game-changer for travel businesses.

Talixo’s dependable, pre-booked rides - whether airport pick-ups and drop-offs, in-destination point-to-point or hourly - use vetted, fully insured local drivers and help travel brands to connect the dots and bring these more remote locations within their customers' reach.

Think exploring hidden gems as well as the must-see spots, all with ease. No haggling. No surprise mark-ups. Just smooth travels and peace of mind.

Bridge product gaps

In a market defined by increased transparency and comparison shopping, pricing is a balancing act that online travel brands can't afford to get wrong. And if your current ride suppliers’ rates aren’t cutting it, this can result in attachment dropping in your key destinations.

Similarly, online review sites have become a critical element of travelers' decision-making process. And if your customer service team is facing a growing number of ride-related complaints, this can have a significant impact on your business's reputation and revenue.

Perhaps you’re looking to double-down on fast-growing markets, offer lesser-known destinations for travelers looking to skip the tourist hotspots, or expanding your ride products with enhanced options such as business class or private minibuses - but don’t have the resources to find or onboard multiple new suppliers.

Talixo works directly with a diverse range of local fleets, using our proprietary fleet management technology and driver app, allowing us to deliver consistently high quality standards across three ride classes and eight vehicle types worldwide.

Fleets benefit from more efficient operations and boosted ride volumes, meaning more competitive prices without compromising their income. And these best-in-class, all-inclusive rates can then be passed on to the travel businesses we partner with.

And because we operate globally, we’re able to provide standardized ride experiences in 1,100+ cities and 130+ countries, filling any geographic gaps you might be facing. Without the hassle of managing multiple vendors.

It’s a simple way to level up your travel offering and keep customers happy, without adding operational complexity.

Shift gears across any channel

Being where your customers are means having a consistent offering, no matter how or where they choose to book.

And the growing importance of social media for travel inspiration means creators and influencers are shaping some of the hottest trends in travel.

But when it comes to booking these trips, travelers want speed and convenience - especially when using a mobile device.

Creator-curated one-click trips are expected to have a moment in 2025. And Talixo rides can be easily added to any booking channel - online or offline - from integrating directly into your website's booking flow or mobile app, providing your aftersales support agents with our dedicated booking tool, or a customizable deep-linked white-label to get you up and running ASAP.

So you can easily offer connected trips or bundled packages that provide effortless door-to-door travel experiences.
