When a hotel has agreed to be listed on the Impala Booking, our hotel onboarding team starts the process. This involves gathering and cross-checking content from a variety of separate sources to ensure the accuracy and breadth of information that we make available in the API. The hotel is not required to manually upload their content and rates onto Impala, providing an effortless experience.
Our process starts with retrieving content and rates and we source this data from rate shopping. We also provide the opportunity for hotels to review their content and request changes so we can ensure we have up to date content. The hotel content available on our API includes the following:
- Hotel description
- Hotel amenities
- Room types along with their amenities, occupancy, and prices
Once all the content, rates and availability have been sourced the hotel is ready to go live on Impala and will be available for room sellers to make available for booking on their platform.
