RateHawk Expands Support For Australian Advisors

RateHawk, one of the fastest growing B2B travel platforms in the market, is giving Australian travel advisors added reason to explore its tools in the lead up to Christmas, following the extension of its seasonal Gift Card Giveaway.

The platform, which launched in Australia in 2024, is designed specifically for travel professionals and aims to streamline the booking process while offering access to competitive rates and smart features that support business growth.

Founded in 2016 by the Emerging Travel Group, RateHawk now provides 2.9 million accommodation options worldwide, along with flights, transfers, car hire and rail tickets in one place.

Advisors can use book and hold functionality with flexible payment terms, rely on twenty four hour support across both local and global teams, and set their own margins and commissions.

Its Pre Check service verifies booking details in advance and API hotel connections are available for partners who prefer direct integration.

In Australia, RateHawk is supported by a team of six specialists led by Danielle Leckenby, Head of Business Development Oceania. Together they bring more than 90 years of industry experience.

The company has also been recognised internationally, recently being shortlisted for two categories at the Globe Travel Awards 2026: Best Accommodation Only Provider and Best Technology Provider.

RateHawk has extended its festive incentive for new advisors, with the Gift Card Giveaway now running until December 12.

The promotion rewards hotel bookings with gift cards, offering a straightforward way for new users to earn as they become familiar with the platform.

Advisors who complete their first paid hotel booking will receive a $25 gift card.

Further rewards scale with booking volume, with $5,000 in bookings earning a $50 Visa gift card and $10,000 in bookings earning a $100 dollar Visa gift card.

With the holiday period approaching, the incentive provides a timely opportunity for advisors to trial the system while collecting a few seasonal bonuses.

RateHawk has also released a short introductory video for those wanting to learn more about the platform’s features.
