The Challenge

McDreams, a hotel located in Germany, faced a common challenge in the hospitality industry - high price disparity and undercut rate, especially on Metasearch channels. The hotel was struggling to keep up with OTA prices, leading to lost revenue and low conversion rates on their website.

The Outcome

McDreams turned to Triptease's Price Match, an automated solution that offers real-time price matching against OTA rates. With Price Match, McDreams was able to offer the best available rates to potential guests, resulting in a significant reduction in price disparity and undercut rate. 

This solution also enabled McDreams to increase their presence on Metasearch channels, where Price Match accounted for 42% of their total Metasearch conversions and revenue at a ROAS of 12.1X.

“With Price Match, we have seen a noticeable increase in direct bookings and revenue. The undercut rate dropped straight from the beginning of the project to less than 5%. As a side effect, it strengthens our strategy to offer the best price available. We needed a way to show our senior leadership team that marketing was producing results, and that’s hard when your metrics are scattered. This dashboard saved the day.”
