Hotelplan Suisse MTCH AG
Hotelplan Suisse is the biggest travel business in Switzerland and employs around 900 employees. They have a network consisting of 103 branches across the country (Hotelplan and Travelhouse branches as well as Globus Reisen Lounges). Hotelplan Suisse is the Swiss subsidiary of the international operating Hotelplan-Group, that again is fully owned by Migros-Genossenschafts-Bund. The company operates the Swiss market with five travel brands: Globus Reisen, Travelhouse, Tourisme Pour Tous, Hotelplan, Migros Ferien.
io-market set up a dedicated webshop and has taken over the administrative functions, to keep the webshop running smoothly. One of the biggest challenges io-market tackled was, to integrate and connect all interfaces.
- Due to the amount and variety of interfaces, a standard webshop was beyond debate. Hotelplan Suisse needed a dedicated and individual webshop.
- A conventional webshop would also struggle to include the up to 7 million articles from Hotelplan, therefore we develop a professional solution.
- The company utilizes a voucher system. The webshops need to accept all different types of voucher reliably as well as combine them with additional credit card payments. Our solution from io-market does exactly this.
- The webshop is seamlessly integrated with the existing SAP-System from Hotelplan Suisse.
- Using a dedicated interface, the webshop is directly connected to the supplier, Buchzentrum Schweiz.
Owing to the technological interfaces, we can offer our customers a variety of travel related articles in our webshop. Not only our travel customer profit in ordering their individual article and get it delivered directly to their door. But also we as a travel operator profit - last but not least financially - from the cooperation with io-market and their efficient solution.
