The travel fintech company KabuK Style, which operates the travel subscription service "HafH," has entered into an exclusive strategic partnership with Hotelbeds, the world's largest accommodation supply wholesaler, starting in October 2024. This collaboration will give KabuK access to a vast inventory of over 200,000 accommodation facilities worldwide, providing HafH users with a richer variety of lodging options.
Expanding HafH's Value Offering
This partnership allows HafH to connect with the extensive list of accommodations offered by Hotelbeds, expanding lodging choices around the globe. HafH users will be able to conveniently select diverse accommodations through the platform to meet various travel needs, offering more personalized travel experiences. Additionally, HafH will integrate transportation services and activities provided by the HBX Group to further enhance users' travel experiences.
Strengthening the Platform Through Bidirectional Cooperation
The collaboration extends beyond just expanding accommodation inventory. KabuK and Hotelbeds have established a bidirectional cooperation mechanism. KabuK will improve the quality of Hotelbeds' accommodation listings by providing high-quality content and localized information. Meanwhile, Hotelbeds will work with KabuK's sales team to assist in negotiating new direct accommodation contracts in Japan and globally. This cooperative approach will allow HafH to offer users more unique and diverse accommodation options.
