Our ZERO commission online booking system is designed to integrate with your own website: simply get your web developer to cut and paste our booking widget onto your website and you are up and running!
We offer two online bookings services: our totally FREE On Request online booking option allows customers to send you booking requests which you can approve or decline, making it really easy for you to sell your rooms online.
However, to maximise bookings we recommend our Instant Confirmation online booking option; this means that customers can book your rooms without waiting for you to 'approve' their booking. Customers overwhelmingly prefer Instant Confirmation online booking as it far more convenient for them, so if you are serious about maximising returns from the internet, this is really the only option.
Now the really important bit: all reservations are ZERO Commission.
Most other websites charge you a hefty commission of between 10% and 25% for online bookings - even for bookings that originate from your own website!
Rather than pay commission you pay a small monthly charge based on the size of your property.

We guarantee that you will find this information useful!
In a world where your customers increasingly expect to be able to book your property online, you will miss out on a lot of business if you don't offer an online booking facility from your own website.
Our research shows that approx. 75% of online bookings you receive will be from your own website. Whilst the large tourism websites may get great web traffic, customers generally feel more comfortable dealing directly with you, particularly as they will expect to get the best deal when dealing with you directly.
MyUK.Travel is designed to be integrated with your website - all you need to do is to get your web developer to copy and paste our online booking widget onto your website - and hey presto - you are up and running!
Click on the example widget below to see how it works.
Note that MyUK.Travel automatically detects whether the customer originated from your own website and will automatically display a cut-down version of your listing with all of the links to other properties removed.
If you click on 'Search' on the booking widget above you will see how this works.
We also offer a booking widget that can be completely embedded into your website - this enables customers to book your property without appearing to leave your website. See Embedded Booking Service Example.
Note that you can only use our booking widgets on your website if you are using our paid Instant Confirmation or Premium On Request booking services.
Why Use Instant Confirmation Online Booking?
Many customers expect to be able to book with you online. If you don't provide an online booking service, then those customers will more often than not go to one of your competitors that do offer this service.
Saves your valuable time. Emailed and telephone enquiries and booking requests are replaced with confirmed booking notifications.
If customers can see that you have a room and how much it is going to cost them online then they are that much closer to booking with you. Customers hate having to phone around just to find a room for the night!
Your customers can book with you 24hrs a day / 7 days a week, even when you are closed. This is especially important for overseas customers in different time zones.
By using our instant confirmation booking service you will be listed above all those properties that use our on request booking service. In practice this will mean a lot more bookings as given the choice customers will generally opt for the instant booking option.
Our online booking service allows you to deal directly with the customer. As we don't take payment from the customer you won't have to wait for us to pay you, plus if a customer wants to cancel / change a booking they deal with you directly reducing your administration costs.
