Features

Discover and Filter

Search by destination, dates, price, amenities and guest rating - built to convert visitors into bookings.

Secure Payments

Online payment, deposits, guest reviews and host payouts with commission controls you set.

Host Dashboard

Hosts manage listings, calendars, pricing and earnings from one clear dashboard.

In-app guest-host messaging keeps the conversation and the booking on your platform.

Why Own vs List on TripAdvisor

Keep Your Guests and Your Data, Not Pay a Commission

On TripAdvisor, you pay fees on bookings and the marketplace owns the guest relationship. Running your own platform keeps the commission and the customer data yours.

Building from Scratch

  • Review systems and moderation are complex
  • Months of development and hiring
  • High cost and risk before launch
  • Slow to market while competitors grow

A Proven Travel Platform Foundation

  • Listings and reviews ready to go
  • Moderation and trust tools built in
  • Booking where it adds revenue
  • Launch faster, iterate as you grow

Why the Market

Reviews Are the Trust Layer of Travel

Travellers trust other travellers. A platform that collects honest reviews and pairs them with bookable listings becomes the natural place to plan and book a trip. The hard part is the review engine, moderation and structured travel data - exactly what a proven platform foundation gives you. NCrypted has built travel and booking platforms for two decades, including work with global hospitality brands.

Matt KuntzExecutive Director, NAMI Montana, USA

NCrypted has helped our little nonprofit develop a powerful website, Treatment Scout, to help people find and review treatment clinics for mental health and addiction. I have been amazed by their ability to bring this complex and important project to life under our very lean budget.

Jan Rangul

NCrypted understands our project and shows keen interest in listening to our requirements. I have spoken to the business team at NCrypted more in recent time than anybody else, regarding my project. I have really high expectations from them on my upcoming projects.

Wouldn't choose anyone else for my software, 10 stars! I have been working with NCrypted for over 3 years now, and they are always right there with me, hand-in-hand, for anything I need for my software. I have never had any bad comments or complaints, and I will undoubtedly keep recommending them.

NCrypted has been handling our projects since 2018. The team they put together for our work has been excellent - their commitment to our projects is second to none. They see our project as theirs.
