What HolidayMe does

HolidayMe (legal entity Traveazy DMCC) is a Dubai-headquartered B2B SaaS travel technology platform founded in 2014 that serves airlines, destination management companies (DMCs), destination marketing organizations (DMOs), travel agencies, and Umrah travel providers across 50+ markets. The company aggregates 1M+ hotels via direct connections to five global chains (Hilton, IHG, Accor, Jumeirah, Rotana), integrations with all three major GDS systems (Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport), and leading bed banks (Hotelbeds, WebBeds, Expedia, TBO, IOL), combined with 400+ airlines and 85+ payment gateways including Virtual Credit Card support. Its proprietary dynamic packaging engine combines flights, hotels, transfers, and activities into real-time personalized bundles using dynamic pricing and customer behavior signals, processing 1.2M+ API requests weekly at 99.8%+ success rate.

The platform is delivered through three primary go-to-market motions: enterprise SaaS subscriptions with demo-based sales targeting airlines and tourism boards, white-label storefront licensing enabling travel companies to launch branded digital booking platforms, and API/integration partnerships with channel managers, GDS providers, and NDC aggregators. Revenue is generated through a mix of platform subscriptions, transaction/booking fees, white-label licensing royalties, and direct Umrah package sales. Specialized verticals include the Umrah-as-a-Service module (end-to-end pilgrimage booking with visa processing, Haramain High-Speed Railway integration, and 100+ hotel partners near holy sites) and the Haramain Train + Transfers consumer product.

HolidayMe is backed by approximately $47 million across six disclosed funding rounds from 2015 through 2023, with notable investors including Accel, Gobi Partners, Algebra Ventures, Global Ventures, BY Venture Partners, Al Sanie Group, and Certares. The company operates from offices in Dubai (headquarters), Jeddah, Pune, Cairo, and Singapore, supporting a workforce of 251-500 employees. Named enterprise customers include flydubai, Saudi Tourism Authority, MakeMyTrip, and Trip.com. The company acquired Tripfez in November 2018 to expand its Southeast Asia Umrah footprint and has received industry recognition including Forbes Middle East's Top 5 Funded Startups (2020).
