In response to the addition of instant bookings to Alpha Holiday Lettings’ offering, Kigo CEO Shawn Convery said of the move “This is coming at a really great time for both parties as we are preparing a new release of our API, and we’re seeing great inquiry volumes through Alpha Holiday Lettings. Instant booking is the direction that the industry is definitely going, and improving our connection to Alpha Holiday Lettings will further strengthen the booking volumes for the connected agencies by allowing customers to convert the second that they are ready to do so.
