AsiaTiv.com, a global hotel reservations portal launched their first country specific site – www.AsiaTiv.in.th localized for the Thai market.

Bangkok, Thailand (EMWNews) August 21, 2008 — AsiaTiv.com, a global hotel reservations portal launched their first country specific site – www.AsiaTiv.in.th localized for the Thai market. AsiaTiv.in.th is a low cost hotel reservations portal with unique service offering for the Thai market. AsiaTiv.in.th integrated their reservation system with 7/11 (Counter Service) and ATM machines for easy payments. Online credit card transactions are also available.

With a database of over 80,000 hotels worldwide, immediate confirmation and a lowest price guarantee aims to be the market leader for hotel reservations in Thailand within a short period of time. The Thai online travel industry is becoming a more and more significant source for hotel bookings due to the fact that Thais are likely to research travel information and best possible offers prior their trip.

Dror Meytal, AsiaTiv Managing Director, said, “We have plans to expand to other markets and decided to launch in Thailand first, as we have local offices in Thailand. After our huge success with AsiaTiv.com as global brand, we decided to use the AsiaTiv brand for individual markets as well.”

AsiaTiv Vice President E-Commerce, Nuttakorn Rattanachaisit commented, “I have seen the opportunities for the Thai market as Internet penetration is significant and the demand for offline payment channels is still important – we therefore integrated with 7/11 and the ATM system.”

AsiaTiv.in.th will use the same infrastructure as AsiaTiv to connect to suppliers worldwide.
