Avis Budget UK has announced the launch of a new website for the UK travel trade. 

www.abgbeep.com brings the company’s Avis Car Rental and Budget Car Rental brands on to the same platform for one-stop-shopping for travel professionals.

The new portal also features destination and driving guides and training tools for agents.

Avis which has approximately 5,500 locations in 170 countries, will be bookable on the Beep portal so that travel agents can offer customers products and services that the company provides.

Budget will also be available through Beep, providing travel agents commissionable bookings and access to vehicles at 3,500 locations in more than 120 countries.

Avis Budget Group’s UK director of travel partnerships, Jeanette Harper, said: “Beep makes the booking process simpler, more efficient and more rewarding for our valuable trade partners.

We’re thrilled to launch the new portal and look forward to spreading the Beep word at forthcoming trade events including the ITT and ABTA conferences and visiting travel agencies as part of an upcoming merchandising campaign.”

Agents will receive commission when they make a booking through Beep and there will be monthly incentives and competitions for them including the chance to win an Amazon Echo every month. Travel agent concessionary rates can also be accessed.
