Turning travel quotes into a live bidding marketplace.
GoTripBroker replaces the WhatsApp-and-email quotation grind with a marketplace where verified vendors bid and travellers choose - plus a B2B agent-to-agent exchange. We built it, own it and run it.
A market running on WhatsApp and trust gaps.
Travel businesses were losing leads to OTAs and answering every enquiry by hand. Vendors had no transparent way to compete, travellers no safe way to pay a stranger, and agents no online network to trade with each other.
The goal: a bidding marketplace that is fair, safe and impossible to bypass.
- Leads and margin lost to aggregators
- Manual, inconsistent quotations
- Blind price wars, collapsing trust
- No B2B agent-to-agent network
- Advance-payment risk on both sides
- Leads bypassed on the first phone call
- Trip posting and a competitive bidding engine
- Vendor verification and ratings
- Escrow payments via RazorpayX
- Contact masking over Exotel / MSG91
- A B2B agent-to-agent exchange
- Proposals, itineraries and WhatsApp alerts
A marketplace with trust built in.
On Laravel and Filament, we built the bidding engine, verified-vendor system, single-account escrow and contact masking that make the marketplace fair and safe - then added a B2B exchange so agents can source and sell to each other year-round.
It launched to coincide with the TTF Kolkata travel fair, with free agent registration as the way in.
From private quotes to open bids.
- Quotes traded privately over chat
- No transparent competition
- Risky advance payments
- No agent-to-agent marketplace
- Platform bypassed after first contact
- Verified vendors bid openly
- Travellers compare price and rating
- Escrow protects every deal
- An always-on B2B exchange
- Contact masking keeps it fair
Live, and measured as it grows.
The marketplace is in production; the numbers below are populated from live activity.
A marketplace only works if it's fair, safe and can't be bypassed. We engineered all three in - then launched it as our own.
