RakutenRakuten Travel Xchange is Rakuten Group's accommodation wholesaling and travel technology business, connecting accommodation providers with travel companies around the world. The service is built on a Singapore-based travel technology company acquired in 2019. Through APIs, a Travel Agent Portal, and customizable websites, it provides travel companies with centralized access to the inventory and rates of hotels and vacation rentals worldwide. Since joining Rakuten Group in 2019, the business has achieved significant growth, with gross transaction value (GTV) increasing 120 times over seven years. It currently provides inventory from approximately 700,000 accommodation properties to more than 1,000 partners across over 90 countries.
