RateHawk integration on ReservationHub

RateHawk is the B2B travel booking platform of Emerging Travel Group, which is headquartered in the UAE. As of April 2026 it offered about 3.2 million accommodation options from some 350 suppliers to more than 110,000 travel professionals in over 120 markets, alongside flights and transfers.

About RateHawk

RateHawk is built for travel agents, tour operators and corporate travel managers. It began operating around 2016 and, according to trade press marking its tenth year in April 2026, now includes more than 250,000 directly contracted hotels among its accommodation options. The rest comes from wholesalers, DMCs and other suppliers, which makes it both a direct contractor and an aggregator of other bedbanks.

Its parent, Emerging Travel Group (ETG), also runs the consumer brand ZenHotels and the business travel platform Roundtrip. ETG reported gross transaction value of USD 4.8 billion for 2025, up 30% on the previous year.

Technical access is through the ETG API, documented for partners with sandbox, certification and production stages. The documentation separates a Content API for hotel data, a B2B API for net trade rates and an Affiliate API for partners that earn commission on publicly available rates. RateHawk's own site describes integration models based on net prices, commissions or affiliate terms.

Agencies that add RateHawk alongside other hotel sources will usually need hotel content mapping, since many properties are also sold by other suppliers.

RateHawk integration: FAQ

Does ReservationHub integrate with RateHawk?
Yes. RateHawk is one of the pre-built hotel supplier connections listed on the ReservationHub partners page. Once your RateHawk API credentials are added, its hotel content is searched alongside your other suppliers in one results list.
Do I need my own RateHawk contract?
Yes. You open your own RateHawk account and obtain API access from RateHawk directly; ReservationHub does not provide contracts or rates. Hotel supplier connections count towards plan limits: one on Basic, two on Standard and unlimited on Premium.
What can I sell through RateHawk?
Mainly hotels and apartments worldwide, both directly contracted and sourced from other suppliers. RateHawk also offers flights and transfers on its platform. Which products are available through your API connection depends on your agreement with RateHawk.
What is the difference between the RateHawk B2B and Affiliate APIs?
The ETG API documentation describes B2B calls that return special trade rates not found in open sources, and Affiliate calls that return publicly available inventory on special terms. Trade sellers working at net rates normally use the B2B model, while affiliates earn commission.
