Tripr.TV - First Video Portal to Pay Travellers for Their Holiday Movies


AMSTERDAM, January 30 /PRNewswire/ --     As the first worldwide video portal, Tripr.TV (http://www.tripr.tv) is 
launching a service in which travellers can easily publish video reviews of 
hotels. Filmmakers receive a commission when the video results in a booking 
of the filmed hotel.

Now everyone can easily publish and share videos via Tripr.TV. As soon as
other travellers place a booking after watching a video review, the publisher
of the film will receive one third of the commission fee. The customary
commission rate in the hotel industry varies between 5 and 15 percent per
reservation.

The videos are published on the Tripr.TV website as well as on other
websites, which will increase the exposure and the income of the published
film. Tripr.TV creates a unique virtual marketplace for video content in the
travel industry.

Jan Kooman, founder of Tripr.TV: "We are basically a kind of YouTube for
the travel industry. Everyone can publish their own videos. Hotels are marked
with a flag on Google Maps so you can easily spot in which area a hotel is
situated. Because videos are created by the travellers themselves, you will
get a good impression of the hotel before making a booking. Moving images are
much more realistic then the, often outdated, pictures of hotels."

About Tripr.TV

Tripr.TV is the first video portal with hotel reviews where the traveller
gets a good sense of the hotel and its surroundings before he places a
reservation.

Within the travel industry, Tripr.TV distinguishes itself by tuning in to
the huge popularity of streaming videos and user generated content. The
online booking of a hotel is made more transparent by adding video footage of
hotel rooms, facilities and their locations. This offers travellers a more
independent view of their travel destination.
