Following the launch of Jovago.com in Nigeria in 2013, Africa’s no. 1 hotel booking portal, Jovago, founded by African Internet Holding (AIH), has now expanded to Kenya and Senegal in order to better provide seamless hotel booking services to customers across Africa.
Jovago facilitates the booking process for its users with an informative, reliable and user-friendly service, by listing travel destinations and providing hotel information online. The booking portal does not apply booking fees and customers have the option to choose between paying at the hotel and using the secure online payment option.
With its move into Kenya and Senegal, Jovago aims to provide even more customers with the best hotel booking experience. Last month, Jovago announced that they have exceeded 2000 hotels in Africa listed on their website, with the expansion to Kenya and Senegal, the listings keep growing. Jovago already offers now the widest range of African hotels and has over hundred thousand hotels listed worldwide.
With a rapidly growing middle class African market, the role of tourism is increasing and social and economic activity have become even more important. People start to move more and more from one place to the other in search for business or cultural exchange. With this comes the challenge of choosing which hotel to stay in, customers need Jovago’s support when looking for the right deal. Jovago’s goal is to create a full transparency on hotels, its prices and services to guide every user through the different offers by several destinations. Jovago also recently started an affiliate program in Nigeria that lets travel agents and individuals earn revenue when they make bookings on the Jovago website.
Marek Zmyslowski, Managing Director of jovago.com, comments: “The hotel industry in Kenya and Senegal is currently presenting huge potential, just like it was in Nigeria when we first became operational there in 2013. The further expansion into the African markets makes us Africa’s no. 1 booking portal, providing more and more customers with the best hotel booking experience and Jovago’s fast, reliable and easy-to-use services.”
