What Eghamat24.com does

Eghamat24.com (اقامت 24) is an Iranian online travel agency and the country's first formally authorized hotel reservation center, licensed by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization since 1385 (2006). The platform aggregates inventory from approximately 1,500+ hotels across 170+ Iranian cities and selected international destinations (Turkey, UAE, Iraq, Armenia, and Georgia), offering real-time availability, user reviews, map-based discovery, negotiated rates, and free cancellation. Beyond core hotel booking, the platform bundles domestic and international tour packages combining hotels and flights, sells standalone flight tickets, lists traditional and eco-tourism stays, and operates a sub-product called Gasht (گشت) for attraction, theme park, desert safari, yacht, and restaurant tickets in Dubai and Kish.

The technology stack is a web and Android-native OTA with a booking engine, Shetab Iranian card payment integration, Rial-denominated international settlement, in-app push notifications, a 1M+ review database, and companion apps on Google Play, Cafebazaar, and Myket. The product spans consumer self-serve booking, a B2B partner portal for travel agencies with commission economics, and a 24/7 nationwide phone channel (1685). No AI/ML capabilities, proprietary recommendation systems, or third-party AI integrations are documented.

Monetization is principally transactional commission on hotel room nights, with the platform acting as the merchant of record between hotels and consumers; hotels provide net rates and Eghamat24 retains the markup. Customer segments include domestic Iranian leisure and pilgrimage travelers (especially Mashhad-bound), outbound Iranian tourists booking international hotels in Rials, B2B travel agencies purchasing agent inventory, and attractions tickets purchasers via Gasht. The company is privately held, headquartered at the Science and Technology Park of Razavi Khorasan in Mashhad, and operates additional offices on Kish Island and in Dubai.

Regional players

• Wego: Middle East–focused travel metasearch and OTA operating across the GCC and broader MENA. Wego is comparable to Eghamat24 as a regional OTA serving travelers searching for hotels and flights in the Middle East, although it does not specifically target the Iranian domestic market.
• Almosafer: Saudi Arabia–based online travel platform (part of Seera Group) offering hotels, flights, and packages across the Middle East. Almosafer is comparable in business model (online travel booking, B2C and B2B) and regional focus, though it serves the Saudi/GCC market rather than Iran.
• Flyin: Egyptian online travel agency offering hotel, flight, and holiday bookings across the MENA region. Flyin is comparable to Eghamat24 as a regional OTA with multi-product travel offerings, though it is focused on the Egyptian and broader Arab market.

Direct peers

• Expedia: Global OTA offering hotels, flights, packages, and activities. Expedia competes with Eghamat24 for cross-border Iranian travel bookings, especially to the U.S., Europe, and major MENA cities, with a much larger loyalty and technology ecosystem.
• Lastminute.com: European online travel agency offering hotels, flights, and holiday packages across Europe and MENA. Lastminute.com is comparable to Eghamat24 on hotel and package bookings for outbound Iranian travelers heading to European destinations.
• Trip.com: Global online travel agency owned by Trip.com Group, with strong presence in Asia and growing MENA footprint. Trip.com overlaps with Eghamat24 on international hotel and flight inventory, particularly for outbound Iranian travelers to Turkey, UAE, and East Asia.
• Agoda: Asia-focused online travel agency owned by Booking Holdings, specializing in hotel reservations across Asia and the Middle East. Agoda overlaps with Eghamat24 on hotel inventory in destinations popular with Iranian travelers (Dubai, Turkey, Southeast Asia).
• Booking.com: Global online travel agency and the largest hotel booking platform in the world. Booking.com continues to list Iranian hotels and competes directly with Eghamat24 for Iranian outbound and inbound bookings, while operating at vastly greater scale and brand recognition.
• Hotels.com: Expedia Group–owned global hotel booking platform with deep inventory in MENA. Hotels.com is a direct competitor to Eghamat24 for international hotel bookings, especially among Iranian travelers using the same Shetab-card payment workaround.

Broad incumbents

• Tripadvisor: Global travel meta-search and review platform with hotel and experience booking. Tripadvisor competes with Eghamat24 on user reviews and meta-search, but is a broader, multi-vertical incumbent rather than a transactional OTA.
