Cost Savings

Our size and scale allow us to share costs and leverage market efficiencies through shared services, strong negotiated rates with intermediary partners and favorable credit card interchange rates.

Marriott's position as the world's largest travel company allows us to negotiate rates with online travel agencies (OTAs) and affiliate partners so we can deliver the most favorable OTA commission rates in the industry to our owners.

Marriott's comprehensive procurement strategy delivers high-quality products at the lowest possible prices, with the savings passed onto owners and franchisees. In addition to our negotiated pricing, we leverage significant volumes and strong supplier relationships to generate further cost efficiencies.
