Agoda Enhances Booking Platform

Agoda has implemented improvements to its booking platform, including stricter compliance standards for third-party suppliers, an AI-based trouble detection tool, and a 24/7 support service.

This move comes in response to demands from the Japan Tourism Agency, following reports of troubles with bookings on Agoda's platform from both bookers and hotels.

The new contract terms aim to address issues related to securing rooms through third-party suppliers in Japan, and include strengthened penalties for violations, thereby improving trust and accountability.

Improvements to the platform will enhance the overall booking experience.
