hubThe B2B Channel Map
Travel Agencies & TMCs
Retail agencies and corporate travel management companies booking via GDS, consortium portals, and direct links.
Wholesalers / Bedbanks
B2B platforms trading net-rate inventory with intermediaries worldwide.
Tour Operators
Packaging hotels with flights, transfers, and activities into sold tour products.
DMCs
Destination Management Companies building on-the-ground programs and sourcing local rooms for groups and events.
Corporate Negotiated Programs
Direct company agreements with dedicated rate codes for business travelers.
Group & MICE Buyers
Event organizers, meeting planners, and incentive houses contracting room blocks and function space.
badgeCorporate Negotiated Rates & LNSA
Companies with regular travel to a destination negotiate corporate rate codes with hotels, loaded into the GDS, TMC tools, and corporate self-booking platforms. These confidential rates guarantee availability windows and negotiated pricing for eligible business travelers.
An LNSA (Last Night Space Availability) rate is a special corporate discount offered only when the hotel would otherwise have an empty room that night. It protects rate integrity - the discount never displaces full-paying demand.
Fencing matters: B2B rates must carry clear eligibility rules (ID checks, rate codes, booking-source restrictions) so they never leak into public channels.
Negotiated Rate
Fixed corporate price for defined dates/room types, booked with a company rate code by eligible travelers.
LNSA Rate
Dynamic corporate discount available only when the hotel has unsold space close to arrival.
Rate Fencing
Eligibility controls that keep confidential rates exclusive to authorized bookers.

helpPertanyaan Umum (FAQ)
Apa saja channel distribusi B2B hotel?
Peta B2B mencakup agen ritel dan TMC, wholesaler atau bedbank, tour operator, DMC, program korporat negosiasi, serta pembeli grup dan MICE. Setiap channel berbeda kekuatannya, dari transient korporat hingga volume musim sepi, sehingga bauran sehat menggabungkan beberapa sekaligus.
Apa itu LNSA dan corporate negotiated rate?
Corporate negotiated rate adalah tarif rahasia yang dinegosiasikan perusahaan, dimuat di GDS dan platform TMC dengan jaminan jendela ketersediaan. LNSA (Last Night Space Availability) adalah diskon korporat khusus yang hanya berlaku saat hotel nyaris memiliki kamar kosong, sehingga tidak pernah menggeser tamu bayar penuh.
Mengapa rate fencing penting bagi tarif B2B?
Tarif B2B harus memiliki aturan kelayakan yang jelas seperti verifikasi ID, rate code, dan pembatasan sumber pemesanan. Tanpa fencing, tarif rahasia korporat dan net rate dapat bocor ke channel publik dan merusak integritas harga hotel.
Channel B2B mana yang tepat untuk kebutuhan berbeda?
Agen dan TMC terbaik untuk transient korporat serta leisure intensif layanan, wholesaler untuk volume musim sepi dan pasar jauh, tour operator untuk paket dan seri grup, sedangkan DMC untuk grup, incentive, dan event di destinasi. Pertimbangkan musim dan kesesuaian segmen saat memilih.
