Ratenparität
Grundsatz, dass ein Hotel auf OTAs und im Direktvertrieb dieselbe öffentliche Rate anbietet.
Rate parity is the commitment that a published room rate matches across OTAs and the property's direct channel. Parity clauses have been challenged or relaxed in several jurisdictions (EU member states, Germany specifically) which gives independents room to publish lower direct rates legally. Closed-user-group discounts (members, loyalty program) typically sit outside parity.
