Booking.com Must Adhere to EU's Digital Markets Act

The European Commission enforces new rules to promote fair competition and transparency in digital marketplaces.

Booking.com has been designated as a 'gatekeeper' under the EU's Digital Markets Act, requiring compliance with new regulations.
The Digital Markets Act aims to ensure fair competition by allowing hotels and travel services to offer better rates on alternative platforms.
Booking.com must provide continuous, real-time access to data generated by hotels and customers, facilitating innovation and competitive offers.
Failure to comply with the Digital Markets Act could result in fines up to 10% of Booking Holdings' global turnover, with higher penalties for repeat offenses.
Booking.com has submitted a compliance report to the European Commission, asserting its adherence to the new regulations.
