Travelio

What Travelio does

Travelio is an Indonesia-headquartered online property rental and sales marketplace founded in 2015 and operating as a private company (legal entity PT. Horizon Internusa Persada). The platform aggregates furnished and unfurnished inventory — apartments, houses, villas, hotel residences, shophouses (ruko), and boarding houses (kost) — across 17 or more Indonesian cities including Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, Medan, Bali, Makassar, Semarang, Malang, Tangerang, Bogor, Depok, Karawang, and Bekasi, with supporting operations in Solo, Wonosobo, and Situbondo. Travelio supports daily, monthly, and yearly rental durations, with pricing denominated in Indonesian Rupiah starting from approximately IDR 1,000,000 per month for entry units. The platform combines a self-serve consumer marketplace (web, iOS, Android) with a dedicated enterprise channel (Corporate Housing), a third-party property management partner program (TPM Partners) for property owners, a professional property-management sub-brand (Travelio Realty), and a buy/sell property brokerage service (Jual Beli Apartemen).

Travelio's revenue model spans four streams: transaction fees on completed rental bookings, recurring subscription-style billing for monthly and annual rentals (with installment options that do not require credit cards), managed-services fees from professional property management (linen, cleaning, room-boy services), and transaction fees on property sales. Distribution is omnichannel Indonesian-domestic, leveraging the website and mobile apps for self-serve consumer acquisition, SEO content marketing (Travelio Blog), organic and paid social (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok), email/newsletter promotional programs, and seasonal/event-driven promotions such as staycation deals with discounts up to 30%. The technology stack is a typical web-plus-native-mobile property rental platform with social login (Google, Facebook), OTP verification via SMS and WhatsApp, and standardized hospitality-quality scoring across properties, but no public-facing API, SDK, or MCP was disclosed.

In April 2023 the company closed a Series C round led by a Korean financial group with participation from 500 Global, AppWorks, KTB Ventures, ORZON Ventures, Pavilion Capital, and Thai strategic investor PTT Oil and Retail Business Public Company. Capital is allocated to launching a rent-to-own vertical addressing low homeownership among Indonesian middle-class millennials and to expanding the city footprint. Headcount sits in the 501-1000 range based on company-provided firmographics; revenue and valuation figures are undisclosed across sources.
