Travelguru – India’s largest hotel network and premier travel solutions provider in association with Express IT Logistics Worldwide Ltd. has launched a new value-add feature to provide more value to its customers by way of Cash-on-Delivery (COD). Travelguru started off this service with 20 cities and recently extended it to 50 cities; by May end it will be available in 90 cities in India.
The significant aspect of Cash-on-Delivery is that the customers can do their hotel bookings online and make payments in cash which will be collected by Travelguru on delivery of the hotel booking vouchers at the address provided by the customer. Cash-on-delivery benefits the customer who needs to pay for his travel bookings with cash.
Commenting on this new initiative Deepak Mavinkurve, Vice-President Operations, Travelguru said, “Responding to the increasing demand of our esteemed customers we are happy to introduce this new payment mechanism. You can now book a hotel online and pay for it by cash.”
He added, “In the last few months, we have seen more and more customers enthusiastically take to this mode of payment. For those without sufficient credit limit on their credit cards, or without credit cards, this payment option is most useful. The convenience of home pickup of the cash and delivery of the hotel booking voucher shows the added focus on service from Travelguru.”
With over 20,000 hotel rooms for sale every day, starting as low as Rs.565 per day, this payment option makes India’s Largest Hotel Network even more accessible to Indians.
