Filling in the Alternative Lodging Industry's Missing Piece -- SECFilings.com - Seite 2

Monaker Group's Innovative Approach

The Monaker Group Inc. (OTCQB: MKGI) has taken a unique approach to the ALR market by becoming a go-to intermediary for end-to-end travel services. Its business-to-business platform is the first real-time ALR product with mainstream travel products and services all on a single platform. Partners can access everything they need to provide ALR lodging, flight booking, car rentals, and even tours that travelers may want in real-time.

The real-time booking is what sets it apart from competitors like Airbnb and HomeAway. While budget travelers don't need real-time booking, those planning business travel or luxury vacations are often seeking a more seamless experience. But more importantly, many OTAs and airlines require real-time booking to integrate with their platforms, which would open up an entirely new distribution channel for the ALR industry.

Through its extensive network, the company has already contracted more than one million properties (with two million more in the pipeline) that it delivers to its B2B partners' existing booking systems. Its innovative API (application programming interface) is designed to fit an industry standard format that makes it plug-and-play for many OTA platforms. This turns the company into an invaluable one-stop intermediary between property owners and distributors.

Monaker: 1,000,000 + 2,000,000 pending properties; 150+ countries; real-time booking; air, car, tour activities; $27M valuation.

Airbnb: 2,500,000 properties; 190 countries; limited real-time booking; limited air, car, tour activities; $31B valuation.

HomeAway: 1,200,000 properties; 190 countries; limited real-time booking; no air, car, tour activities; $3.9B valuation (acquired by Expedia).
