Mera Trip at Mera Price by Via.com

2012-01-04T00:29:00.001-08:00

Continuing with the tradition of launching innovative products in the market, VIA.com launched Beta version of yet another innovative product – “Mera Trip @ Mera Price”.
“Mera Trip @ Mera Price” enables customer’s to quote or specify the price they are prepared to pay when submitting an offer for a particular leisure travel service (flight or hotel or holiday) .Customers are tired of looking for “best prices” and “Your Trip @ Your Price” empowers customers to decide what they want to pay. Via also launched the advertisement campaign in Times of India.
Via is the first in India to launch MTMP system. The "Mera Trip @ Mera Price" system is where a buyer specifies a price and a product and/or service, and asks sellers to match that combination. MTMP is a special type of reverse auction originally pioneered on the Internet in India by VIA.com.
Mera-trip-mera-price sales are considered "opaque" by marketers because buyers "don't know the name of the supplier (airline, hotel or car rental company) or the schedule (with air tickets) until after" they make a non-refundable purchase. Suppliers benefit because they can sell to the most price-conscious travellers without publicly disclosing those low rates. Furthermore the dealer is allowed to make a return offer, if the price the user requests is low. After the bidding, if no dealer has accepted the user price, the user receives the lowest bid amongst the dealers. Within the first two days of its launch the consumers have actively responded with great positive feedbacks.
In India , with established OTA’s Like Makemytrip , Yatra and Cleartrip . Via.com has distinguished itself with this innovative and new approach to travel booking. Earlier this year they had entered the online deals and coupons market, and have proved a good player in the online Indian market. For more information visit Via.com.

Malaysia:

Malaysia is really like two countries in one, cleaved in half by the South China Sea. The peninsula is a multicultural buffet of Malay, Chinese and Indian flavours while Borneo hosts a wild jungle smorgasbord of orang-utans, granite peaks and remote tribes. Within and throughout these two very different regions are an impressive variety of microcosms ranging from the space-age high-rises of Kuala Lumpur to the smiling longhouse villages of Sarawak and the calm, powdery beaches of the Perhentian Islands. And did we mention the food? Malaysia (particularly along the peninsular west coast) has one of the best assortments of delicious cuisines in the world.
Start with Chinese–Malay 'Nonya' fare, move on to Indian banana leaf curries, Chinese buffets, spicy Malay food stalls and even some impressive Western food. Yet despite all the pockets of ethnicities, religions, landscapes and the sometimes-great distances between them, the beauty of Malaysia lies in the fusion of it all, into a country that is one of the safest, most stable and easiest to manage in Southeast Asia.
