agoda.com, a leading hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group (Nasdaq: PCLN), has announced a partnership with channel manager eRes® Development.

Based in South Africa, eRes® Development provides software solutions to hotels across Africa, Dubai and Germany. Currently, more than 90 hotel chains and groups use the eRes® channel management tool to connect to distributors, and thanks to this new partnership these properties can quickly and easily market their inventory through agoda.com. 

agoda.com offers hotel partners international marketing in 37 languages, providing properties with increased visibility in new markets. By connecting to agoda.com, hotels also gain access to the custom-built Yield Control System (YCS 3.0), allowing partners to update rates and inventory and increase yield by creating tailored promotions.

Global Director of Hotels for agoda.com Errol Cooke, commented: "Hotels currently using eRes® will discover that not only can they easily manage an additional online distribution channel, but that through agoda.com they can access multiple customer demographics – many in new markets. In turn, agoda.com customers have more rooms available to them in exciting destinations."
