New Direct Booking

Ocean View Villa #3

$87.00 in OTA fees saved.

OTAs take 20% for one reason. They made booking your hotel easier than you did.

OTAs take up to $100,000 a year from independent hotels. Not because they know your guests. Not because they add value. Because a guest who can book in two clicks will never pick up the phone.

85%

of guests book on OTAs

OTAs have SEO, loyalty programs, and review trust. Your website has a phone number. Kivarra levels the playing field.

$80k

Average annual OTA fees

A 30-room hotel at $150 ADR and 20% OTA commission loses $80,000 a year. Direct bookings are how you take it back.

1 Email

isn't enough

A single “Thank You” email gets ignored. Kivarra’s automated outreach system turns past guests into direct bookings.

Everything you need to stop losing guests to OTAs. Set up in 30 minutes.

Tools built to work together, every day, without adding to your workload.

A direct booking button on your website.

It takes just 1–2 direct bookings a month in OTA fees saved for Kivarra to pay for itself.

Built for hotel operators, not IT departments.

Kivarra is built for the owner who runs the front desk, manages the bookings, and still has to answer emails after dinner. Not for 500-room chains with revenue managers and IT staff — that's Revinate and Cendyn, at $500/month and three months to onboard.

30 minutes to set up.

One line of code. Works on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, or any static site. No IT team, no onboarding calls, no waiting.

Works with any PMS.

Drop in a CSV export from any PMS. Kivarra's import Assistant maps your columns, deduplicates returning guests, and tells you exactly what it did — in plain English.

Legal. Compliant. Proven.

Your PMS guest data belongs to you, not the OTAs. Revinate and Guestfolio have operated on this exact legal basis for 15+ years.

Simple pricing.
No surprises.

No setup fees. No long contracts. 21 days free.

"Is this actually allowed?"

Yes. Your guest data belongs to you. OTA terms restrict solicitation during a stay — not after checkout. Kivarra waits 24 hours before sending anything, the same approach Revinate and Guestfolio have used for 15+ years. GDPR, CAN-SPAM, and unsubscribes handled automatically.

"Is the AI Assistant actually useful for a small hotel?"

Yes — especially for small hotels. You're already doing the work of three people. The Assistant handles guest requests, looks up your stats, and manages your sequences so you can focus on the guests in front of you.
