“OTAs are taking too much of my revenue.”

Every booking through an OTA costs you commission, often 15 to 25%, and the guest’s details stay with the OTA. Many of those guests looked at your website first.

Why it keeps happening

Your website is harder to book than the OTA.
More steps, slower pages and a booking engine that feels like a different site. Guests take the easy route.
The OTA is often cheaper.
When a channel undercuts your own rate, even loyal guests book there. Parity leaks quietly, night by night.
There is no reason to book direct.
No members rate, no perks, no follow-up. Past guests come back through the OTA because nobody asked them not to.
