Agoda is a prominent online travel agency that operates a digital marketplace connecting travelers with hotels, vacation rentals, flights, and other travel services worldwide. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Singapore, Agoda has established itself as a major player in the online travel booking sector, with particular strength in the Asia-Pacific region. The company operates a performance-based advertising model, working with accommodation providers and leveraging digital marketing channels to drive bookings. As a subsidiary of Booking Holdings Inc.
