Priceline is an online travel marketplace that connects travelers with airlines, hotels, car rental companies, cruises, and vacation packages. It uses two business models: an agency model that earns commissions on bookings and a merchant model that buys travel services wholesale and resells them at a markup. It offers fixed-price listings and discount options such as Express Deals and Name Your Own Price, plus flexible options like free cancellations and pay-at-arrival, accessible via a mobile app. Under Booking Holdings, its goal is to help budget travelers access a wide range of options while giving consumers more negotiating power through transparent pricing and valuable deals.
