 more strategic distribution compared to fragmented legacy platforms. • Flexible retailing and brand control. Our ownership of both the front-end user interface and back- end technology stack gives suppliers a unique ability to retail their products exactly as they intend. Unlike traditional TMCs and OBTs that often fragment the traveler experience and slow down updates, we provide a single, integrated system where suppliers can showcase brand- forward content, control fare and ancillary pricing, and iterate on their merchandising strategy in real-time. This allows suppliers to differentiate their offerings, adjust to market dynamics, and align their retail goals with how their products are discovered and booked by end users, capabilities that are especially critical as the industry embraces modern retailing frameworks like NDC. • Accelerated innovation through collaborative distribution. We work closely with suppliers to modernize how travel products are distributed, supporting both near-term retail improvements and long-term transformation initiatives like NDC. Our NDC technology enables us to have swift access to updates to the travel distribution ecosystem and positions us as a partner to these suppliers. Our flexible architecture and deep integration capabilities allow suppliers to roll out new content formats, dynamic pricing models, loyalty logic, and upsell features faster than legacy platforms. By partnering with us, suppliers can test, launch, and evolve their offerings in a controlled and collaborative environment, unlocking speed-to-market and visibility that legacy intermediaries often cannot provide. 145 End-to-End AI-Driven Software Platform for Travel, Payments, and Expense The Most Advanced Travel Infrastructure We have partnerships with over 600 airlines via GDS, NDC, and LCCs, two million individual lodging properties via leading OTAs, GDSs, and direct connections with 40 major train providers, over 40 rental car companies, and over 45 black car vendors.
