TravelTriangle – Follows up on the exponential success of its Android app, downloaded by over half a million users, to reaffirm its position as India’s fastest growing travel marketplace
Building on its recent market success and growth, TravelTriangle, India’s first comprehensive holiday marketplace, has launched its iOS mobile application to an impressive user reception. Rolled out recently, the app has clocked over 30,000 downloads since its launch with a 4+ rating on App Store. With the TravelTriangle Android app having accrued over half a million downloads with an average rating of 4.3 on Google Play since its launch, the platform has once again underlined its position as the fastest growing travel marketplace in the country.
One of the major reasons behind the traction that TravelTriangle mobile apps have generated in the Indian market is the swift, seamless in-app flow which makes planning and booking a holiday an amazing and hassle-free experience. The application allows users to browse listed destinations on the platform to design and book customized holiday packages on the go. All TravelTriangle users need to do to generate customized holiday packages is provide the destination, departure city, travel dates, and contact details. Once these details are entered, multiple travel agents listed on the portal provide a price quote for the requested package. Users can then personalize the package as per their needs with expert agents, discuss package inclusions and exclusions, and hotel/accommodation as well as flight and cab charges with agents to select the most value-driven holiday option.
Commenting on the iOS app launch, ​Mr. Prabhat Gupta, Co-Founder and CTO, TravelTriangle, said, “TravelTriangle is currently growing faster than any other online travel marketplaces in the country. With a combination of tech expertise and insights on the Indian travel sector and consumer behaviour, we are enabling travellers to book highly-customized and theme-based holidays on the go. This differentiation has been the primary reason behind the outstanding customer response for our Android app, and is also the driving force behind the significant traction that the TravelTriangle iOS app has generated within such a short span of time. We aim to build on this positive market response to further consolidate our position in the sector and establish ourselves one of the top online travel marketplaces in the country.â€
In addition to searching and booking holiday packages, TravelTriangle also allows its users to compare packages from different travel agents & chat with them. The platform also allows users to make payments in convenient instalments upon the closure of a quote, thereby significantly enhancing the user experience and ease-of-booking.
Thanks to its impressive growth and positive contribution margin, TravelTriangle recently secured $10 million in Series B funding from RB Investments with participation from existing investors, SAIF Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners. TravelTriangle currently has over 650 travel agents on board offering a wide range of holiday packages, and aims to offer more than 100 holiday destinations in India and across the globe in the near future.
