Beroni, a company specializing in R&D for the tourism and travel sector, and the Association of Travel Agencies of Gipuzkoa (BIDAIKIDE) have signed a partnership agreement to enable member agencies of the association to access the Lleida-based company’s technology on preferential terms, with discounts on service contracts.
This means that BIDAIKIDE members who wish to do so can subscribe to Beroni’s cloud-based software on favorable terms, upgrade their existing on-premise solution if they are already part of Beroni’s client base, or integrate the hotel comparison tool from its Wasabi-s platform, which provides access to more than 65 different providers, offering a total of 2.6 million hotels.
The agreement also enables agencies in Gipuzkoa to implement the Ticket BAI module, the name of the joint project between the three provincial tax authorities and the Basque Government, under which all individuals and legal entities engaged in economic activity must use invoicing software that meets a set of requirements.
BIDAIKIDE, an organization founded in July 2021, currently comprises a total of 30 independent travel agencies and franchises. Its mission is to safeguard the needs and interests of travel agencies in Gipuzkoa and to serve as a representative of the sector before government agencies and institutions. All member firms are also bound by a mandatory code of ethics, which, among other provisions, includes a commitment to support travelers at every stage of their journey (before, during, and upon return).
Josep Bellés, CEO of Beroni, believes that the agreement signed with BIDAIKIDE “could be very appealing to the agencies in this association, given the terms agreed upon, but above all because it provides them with access to advanced technology for their day-to-day work, and could also represent a significant qualitative leap forward on their path to digitalization.”
