Inventory source
How Expedia works with Roomer — and for you
Expedia is one of the inventory sources behind your Roomer site's hotel pages. Its rates and availability flow in through Roomer's hotel rails — primarily Vio, which aggregates the major networks — so the “check availability” button on a hotel you featured can resolve to an Expedia rate whenever it's the best one. No Expedia affiliate account, no link building, no maintenance.
What Expedia is
One of the largest travel booking groups in the world, with deep hotel coverage across the US and globally, a loyalty program travelers actually use, and a checkout most of your North American audience has bought from before. Familiarity converts.
What changes on Roomer
Coverage without the program. Expedia's affiliate route means applications, per-link tracking and upkeep. On Roomer, its inventory is simply part of the rate competition behind every hotel page Aura builds.
Best rate wins. Your page isn't loyal to any single source — the rails route whichever network prices the room best, Expedia included. Your follower gets the competitive rate; your recommendation stays credible.
Tracked to the video. Every booking, whichever source fulfills it, attributes to the exact reel that drove it.
Standard Roomer terms. Typical hotel commissions run 4–8% of booking value — and on Roomer, 100% of it goes to you. No revenue split, no platform cut.
