Hotel Bedbanks and Wholesalers List: the Biggest B2B Hotel Suppliers in 2026

Hotel Bedbanks List: the Biggest B2B Hotel Wholesalers in 2026

Global groups come first, then regional wholesalers based in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, then India. The last column quotes each company's own published figures. Where a company doesn't publish something, we've left it out rather than guess.

One honest caveat about this list. It's a starting point, not a ranking. A bedbank that is enormous in Spain can be thin in Phuket, and the only test that tells you anything is pricing your next real file on two or three of them on the same afternoon.

Bed Banks Examples: Direct Contracts vs Total Hotels

The headline hotel count is mostly resold stock. The directly contracted figure is the part a bedbank negotiated with hotels itself, and it's usually a fraction of the total. Five companies on the list publish both numbers, or say plainly where their stock comes from.

Why it matters on a real booking: a directly contracted room is confirmed through the bedbank's own link with the hotel. A resold room passes through at least one more company, which takes a margin and can slow down the hotel confirmation number. Neither is wrong. You just want to know which one you're holding when a client rings from the front desk.

How much does a bedbank keep from each booking?

The listed ones publish it as a take rate, meaning revenue as a share of total transaction value (TTV). The take rate at HBX Group was 8.8% in its financial year to 30 September 2025, on TTV of EUR 8.2 billion. For activity platforms such as Viator, GetYourGuide and Klook, see our OTA supplier commission rates. WebBeds reported revenue equal to 6.8% of TTV for the year to 31 March 2026, on TTV of A$5.8 billion.

Those are averages across every product and client, so they won't tell you the margin on one Bangkok rate. What they do tell you is that every consolidator or portal buying from a bedbank adds its own margin on top. That is why the same room can show three different net prices on three trade sites.

Bedbanks buy from each other

The lines keep moving. In February 2026 HBX Group and Dida Holdings signed a seven-year preferred partnership that makes HBX a preferred supply partner inside the Dida distribution network. In October 2026 Emerging Travel Group, the parent of RateHawk, announced partnerships with Agoda and with Traveloka to share supply and distribution. When one company sells another's rooms, the hotel count on both websites goes up.

The number of hotels anyone actually contracted doesn't.

Bedbank vs Hotel Wholesaler vs Consolidator vs B2B Portal

All of them resell hotel rooms to the trade at net rates. The difference is who holds the contract with the hotel and how many companies sit between you and the room. Our B2B travel explainer shows the whole chain from hotel to traveller and who sets each price.

In real life the labels overlap badly. RateHawk calls itself a booking platform and draws its hotels from more than 330 suppliers, which is consolidator work. GRNconnect pools 80+ suppliers into one search. TBO sells flights and hotels through the same login. For the longer version, read our posts on travel consolidators vs wholesalers and on who actually holds the room between a hotel and your quote.

Hotel Wholesalers for Travel Agents: How to Choose

Pick the wholesaler that is strongest in the destinations you actually sell, takes payment the way you can pay, and gets a confirmation number out of the hotel quickly. The total hotel count matters less than any of those.

1. Price a real file, not the homepage. Take three bookings you made last month and price them on two or three suppliers on the same day. That's the only comparison worth having.
2. Ask what is directly contracted where you sell. A bedbank with 100,000 direct contracts may have very few of them in Lombok or Langkawi.
3. Check how you pay. Prepaid wallet, card or invoice, and in which currency. Credit usually comes later, if at all, so plan to prepay at the start.
4. Read the cancellation deadline against the hotel's own. Wholesalers and portals often set theirs earlier than the hotel's, to leave time to cancel upstream. That's normal. Quote your client the earlier date, and see our hotel cancellation policies guide for reading the charge steps.
5. Ask how fast the hotel confirmation number arrives. Without it, the front desk may not find the booking. Our hotel voucher format guide explains why.
6. Look at the balance sheet. HBX Group, Web Travel Group and TBO Tek are listed and publish annual reports. For a private wholesaler, ask how long it has traded and who owns it. If a company in the middle of the chain fails, the hotel can go unpaid even though you paid.

Wholesale Travel Suppliers: How Agents Get Access

There are two routes. You open an account with each bedbank yourself, or you book through a B2B portal that already connects to several sources and gives you one login.

Route 1: a direct account with each bedbank

Most companies in the table accept travel agencies after a trade check. Bedsonline says you only need to prove you're a travel agent. Travellanda asks for a company registration document before it activates an account. Miki Travel runs mikiNet as a closed site for authorised agents. The API route is a bigger project: WebBeds mentions documentation and a certification process, and Expedia asks you to become a partner before you integrate Rapid API.

A direct account gives you that bedbank's own rates and its own support desk. The cost is admin. Each supplier brings its own contract, payment method, cancellation rules and support line, and with four suppliers you have four of everything.

Route 2: a B2B portal that aggregates several sources

A B2B portal connects to several hotel sources and shows the results in one search. You fund one wallet, keep one booking history and download vouchers in one format, while the portal handles the supplier contracts. Our guide on how to get wholesale hotel rates goes into the access routes in more detail.

B2B Hotel Wholesalers by Region

The global bedbanks sell almost everywhere. These are the regional names worth knowing, and where each one is based.

B2B hotel wholesalers in India

India has its own heavyweights. TBO Tek is based in Gurugram and listed on the NSE and BSE. GRNconnect is run from New Delhi by Aman Travels, in business since 1993. RezLive.com started in Ahmedabad in 2007 and is the main brand of Travel Designer Group. Each of them sells more than hotels, and each sells to agents outside India as well.

India also has B2B portals built mainly for local agencies. If you're weighing them, our comparisons of TravClan, TripJack and Riya Connect are a fair place to start, and the B2B travel portal India page covers paying from India. On DMC Quote, Indian agencies top up an INR wallet by bank transfer.

Middle East

Dubai is the regional base for several wholesalers. The Web Travel Group annual report lists Destinations of the World companies in Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait among its subsidiaries. Yalago belongs to dnata Travel Group, part of the Emirates Group, and works from Dubai. Travellanda and RateHawk both have Dubai offices or companies, and RezLive.com describes itself as one of the largest B2B travel portals in the Middle East.

Gulf agencies selling Asia can read the Middle East B2B portal and UAE B2B portal pages for how payment works on DMC Quote, with AED and USD wallets topped up by bank transfer.

Southeast Asia, China and Japan

Dida is headquartered in Shenzhen and sells well beyond China. In May 2026 it signed a distribution agreement with Archipelago Hotels that added more than 300 Archipelago hotels in Indonesia, the rest of Southeast Asia and its other markets. RateHawk opened its first Asian headquarters in Singapore in 2024, and Travellanda keeps an office in Bangkok. For Japan, Miki Travel has sold to the trade since 1967.

Big Asian OTAs now sit inside the wholesale chain too, through the Agoda and Traveloka partnerships with Emerging Travel Group mentioned above. Our Agoda wholesale alternative page looks at what that means for agents who book Agoda today, and the Singapore B2B portal page covers our home market.

Where DMC Quote Fits, and Where It Doesn't

DMC Quote is a B2B portal run by Travel DMC Group in Singapore. It is not a bedbank. It aggregates several hotel sources, 1.5M+ hotels in 190+ countries, into one search for travel agents, and it's free: no joining fee, no subscription and no minimum volume.

What that means day to day:

• Rates for the same hotel from different sources are grouped under one hotel, so you see one result per property rather than five copies of it.
• Supplier names are never shown to agents, so you won't see which wholesaler sits behind a rate.
• Cancellation deadlines on the portal are deliberately earlier than the supplier's, and shown in Singapore time.
• Vouchers are issued by Travel DMC Group with a 24/7 emergency line, +65 8034 8190. They are not white-label.
• Hotels sit alongside airport transfers at 15+ airports, attraction tickets, 10,000+ tours and activities, and the AI package builder.

And what it doesn't do. Flights aren't part of the product. Bookings can be cancelled but not amended in the portal, and there's no rooming-list upload. If a trip needs air and hotel on one ticket, you'll want a second supplier for the air.

See the B2B hotel booking page for what a search looks like, or the wholesale rates page for how net pricing works on the portal.
