Multicom strikes deal with Lowcostbeds.com


Travel technology specialist Multicom has signed a deal with Lowcostbeds.com to distribute its accommodation via the FindandBook (FAB) system.

The thousands of agents signed up to FAB will now have direct access to search and book Lowcostbeds.com’s extensive worldwide product.

Multicom will also provide the discount accommodation company with access to its GDS service, enabling Lowcostbeds to sell packages to trade.

David Osborne, Multicom’s sales manager, said: “Lowcostbeds.com is one of the industry’s leading accommodation providers and we are delighted they have come on board with FAB.

Not only will it give them access to our existing database of flights but will also enable our existing customer base to access Lowcostbeds.com’s great deals on holiday accommodation.”

John Briggs, Lowcostbeds.com’s sales director, added: “Multicom has relationships with a number of key retailers and signing up to the FAB system helps us widen our distribution channels.

We are impressed not only by the sophistication of the system itself but also by the calibre of Multicom’s customer base and this deal gives us the opportunity to work with a wider selection of agents.”

Multicom powers millions of searches and bookings for the full range of travel content, whether booked online or via High Street agents, through its leisure GDS, FindandBook.

The service is widely recognised as the travel industry’s finest internet-based search and booking system, enabling customers to access a range of suppliers and content via a single interface.
