Accommodation providers using eRevMax distribution solutions, RateTiger, RTConnect and LIVE OS platform, will now be able to make Availability, Rate and Inventory (ARI) updates to the channel in real-time. Despegar partner properties will also benefit from eRevMax’s Reservation Delivery service, which facilitates automatic transfer of reservations booked at the channel directly to the hotel systems (CRS/PMS), thereby eliminating chances of missing reservations or overbookings.
