- Early 2026 Deal, Getaway Deal, Late Escape Deal, and Black Friday Deal are now available via the API.
- With these additions, a total of nine deals can now be created via the Promotions API.
- New flexibility options are available for Targeted Rates (Mobile Rates and Geo Rates).
What is this about?
The Promotions API is one of our most popular APIs. It helps connected properties meet travellers’ need for more affordable pricing through discounted rates—boosting bookings and revenue while improving visibility.
You told us there was a gap between the extranet and the API. Many properties still create promotions in the extranet — the property’s command centre on Tripeden.com — even when the same options were available via the API. To close that gap and encourage API adoption, we’re aligning features across channels. Previously, the API offered five deals: Basic Deal, Early Booker Deal, Late Booker Deal, Mobile Rates, and Geo Rates. As a first step, we’ve added four deal types to the API (nine in total) and introduced new configuration options for Mobile Rates and Geo Rates. These updates can now be set up directly via the API.

New deals added to the API
We’ve added three campaign deals—Early 2026 Deal, Getaway Deal, Late Escape Deal—and one deep deal—Black Friday Deal.
Campaign deals
Campaign deals are annual promotions that run over predefined periods, giving properties consistent calendar moments to capitalise on demand. We promote campaign deals heavily across multiple customer channels, including email and throughout our platform.
- Early 2026 Deal: Designed to encourage bookings for the start of the new year. Properties can create the Early 2026 Deal now and guests can start booking with this deal from 6 Dec 2025 for stays between 1 Jan 2026 and 1 Apr 2026.
- Getaway Deal: Helps capture rising demand between March and September. For 2026, properties can start creating this deal from 12 Feb 2026. Guests can book from 12 Mar 2026 to 30 Sep 2026 for stays between 27 Mar 2026 and 30 Sep 2026.
- Late Escape Deal: Helps attract end-of-year demand and boost revenue. Guests can book the 2025 Late Escape Deal until 7 Jan (stays until the same date). For 2026, properties can start creating this deal from 6 Aug 2026. Guests can book from 3 Sep 2026 to 7 Jan 2027, for stays between 3 Sep 2026 and 7 Jan 2027.
Deep deals
Deep deals are short-term, reactive promotions offering high discounts to drive demand spikes. We support them with search result badges and marketing to maximise exposure. Deep deals never stack with other pricing offers (e.g., Genius discounts).
As of now, the API offers one deep deal: Black Friday Deal.This deal capitalises on a key moment when travellers seek discounts. It helps properties stand out with a badge on the property page and additional marketing support. Properties can already create Black Friday Deals for 2025. Guests can book between 20 Nov 2025 and 5 Dec 2025 for stays between 20 Nov 2025 and 31 Dec 2026.
Additional flexibility options
We’ve enhanced Targeted Rates—Mobile Rates and Geo Rates—with new configuration options to bring them in line with the extranet.
These options include:
- Set unlimited block dates (previously limited to 30 days).
- Select specific rate plans (previously applied to all available rate plans).
- Define minimum length of stay exclusively for these two targeted deals.
- Specify the minimum and maximum booking window during which deals are available to travellers.
Why implement these new features?
Nearly 69% of properties creating campaign deals on the Extranet are connected. Because these deals are short term, they can help properties improve performance. The average increases in bookings observed by properties creating these deals are:
- Early Year Deal: 12%
- Getaway Deal: 14%
- Late Escape Deal: 11%
- Black Friday Deal: 38%
- Targeted Rates: 28%
Providers can start implementing these new features by following the documentation guide, helping properties tap into your platform’s enhanced capabilities to drive stronger business results.
