The platform's deep integration with Tripadvisor's 1.4 billion reviews creates a powerful review-to-booking funnel unique in the experiences category. Viator operates on a commission-based model, charging operators 20–25% per booking with no upfront listing fees.\n\nViator reported full-year 2024 revenue of $840M (+14% YoY) and Q4 2024 revenue of $186M (+16% YoY). The tours and activities market is estimated at $300B globally, with online penetration still below 20%, positioning Viator for continued structural growth. Viator's B2B distribution API and white-label solutions expand its reach well beyond direct consumer traffic.

About
Oracle Hospitality is the hospitality technology business unit of Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) — providing cloud-based property management systems (PMS), point-of-sale systems, loyalty platforms, and distribution management solutions to hotels, resorts, cruise lines, casinos, and restaurants globally through the OPERA Cloud PMS platform and the MICROS F&B point-of-sale system. Oracle Hospitality serves the world's major hotel brands — Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, Wyndham, and thousands of independent properties — with OPERA Cloud managing reservations, front desk check-in/check-out, room assignments, rate management, and guest profile data in a multi-property cloud platform that replaced the legacy on-premises OPERA 5 system. Oracle acquired Micros Systems (restaurant and hospitality POS) in 2014 for $5.3 billion and has operated the hospitality technology division as Oracle Hospitality since. Oracle Corporation named Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia as co-CEOs in 2025 (replacing Safra Catz, who transitioned to executive vice chair), with Larry Ellison remaining as Chairman and CTO — a leadership transition that signals the next phase of Oracle's cloud infrastructure and AI strategy in which Oracle Hospitality's cloud-native property management platform benefits from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and Oracle's AI integration capabilities. The OPERA Cloud PMS migration (moving legacy hotel properties from on-premises OPERA 5 servers to Oracle's cloud-hosted OPERA Cloud) represents one of the largest hospitality industry digital transformation programs underway globally.
