If you’re planning to list your hotel on MakeMyTrip, here’s something that saves you real duplicate work: MakeMyTrip and Goibibo run on the same hotel partner extranet. Both platforms are owned by MakeMyTrip Limited (Goibibo came in through the 2017 acquisition of the ibibo Group, and as of 2026 has been further consolidated into one unified India entity), and operationally, one partner registration through the shared Connect extranet gets your property listed on both MakeMyTrip and Goibibo simultaneously. This guide covers the actual registration process, documents required, and what to expect from commission and performance on both platforms.
The Shared Extranet, What It Means for You
MakeMyTrip’s hotel extranet, called Connect (also referenced as InGo-MMT), is the single partner dashboard you use to manage your listing, rates, availability, and bookings. Because MakeMyTrip and Goibibo are run by the same parent company and share this backend system, you do not need to separately apply to Goibibo once you’re registered through MakeMyTrip’s Connect extranet, your property’s inventory and rates sync across both consumer-facing platforms from this one dashboard.
This is meaningfully different from the relationship between, say, Booking.com and Agoda (also siblings under Booking Holdings, but run as genuinely separate registration processes and extranets). For MakeMyTrip and Goibibo specifically, the shared backend means less duplicate data entry, but it also means you can’t meaningfully differentiate your presence between the two platforms, your rates, availability, and property details will be consistent across both, since they’re drawing from the same source.
Documents Required for MakeMyTrip/Goibibo Registration
- Business registration or trade license, proof your hotel is a legally operating commercial establishment.
- GST registration certificate, with your GSTIN.
- PAN card of the property owner or the business entity.
- Bank account details for payment settlements, MakeMyTrip processes payouts on a periodic settlement cycle after deducting commission.
- Proof of property ownership or authorization to operate, ownership documents or a lease/rental agreement, along with authorization from the owner if you’re managing rather than owning the property.
- Photo ID of the primary account holder who will manage the Connect extranet account.
- FSSAI license, if your property has an in-house restaurant or food service component being featured in the listing.
Step-by-Step Registration Process
Step 1: Access the Partner Registration Page
Navigate to MakeMyTrip’s hotel partner signup (accessible via their business/partner section) and begin the registration. This is the same entry point that provisions access to the shared Connect extranet.
Step 2: Submit Property and Business Details
Provide your property name, location, room count, category, and legal business details including your GSTIN and PAN.
Step 3: Upload KYC Documents
Submit the documents listed above for verification. MakeMyTrip’s KYC (know-your-customer) approval process for hotel partners typically takes 3 to 7 working days once a complete document set is submitted, incomplete submissions extend this considerably, since the verification team cannot approve a partial application.
Step 4: Set Up Your Room Inventory and Rates
Within the Connect extranet, configure your room types, base rates, and rate plans (refundable, non-refundable, with or without meal plans). This inventory setup automatically reflects across both MakeMyTrip and Goibibo’s guest-facing listings.
Step 5: Upload Property Photos and Content
Add photos, amenity details, and property descriptions. As with every OTA, photo quality has an outsized effect on booking conversion, so this is worth investing in properly rather than using phone photos taken quickly.
Step 6: Verification and Go-Live
Once your KYC is approved and your listing content is complete, MakeMyTrip activates your property, and it becomes bookable on both MakeMyTrip and Goibibo at the same time.
Commission Structure
MakeMyTrip’s commission on hotel bookings typically ranges from 15% to 25%, depending on your property type, city, and any specific programs or promotional placements you opt into. Most independent hotels fall in the 18% to 22% range. Since this commission applies across bookings coming from either MakeMyTrip or Goibibo (given the shared backend), there’s no separate commission structure to negotiate per platform. It’s one commercial relationship covering both consumer-facing brands.
Managing Your Listing Across Both Platforms
Since MakeMyTrip and Goibibo draw from the same inventory, a change you make in the Connect extranet, a rate adjustment, a blocked date, an updated photo, reflects on both platforms simultaneously. This is operationally convenient but means you should think of your presence on these two platforms as one unified channel for forecasting and rate strategy purposes, rather than two independent revenue streams to manage separately. Some hotels do notice different booking volume patterns between the two brands (Goibibo has historically had a budget-conscious, often younger guest base compared to MakeMyTrip’s broader audience), which is useful to know for guest service expectations, even though you can’t set platform-specific pricing to target that difference.
Common Mistakes Hotels Make
- Assuming Goibibo needs a separate application, leading to confusion when hotels search for a standalone Goibibo partner signup that doesn’t meaningfully exist as a separate process from MakeMyTrip’s.
- Incomplete KYC document sets, which is the single biggest cause of delayed approval, submit everything in the required list at once rather than piecemeal.
- Underinvesting in photos, assuming the listing will perform the same regardless of image quality, when in practice photo quality meaningfully affects click-through and booking conversion on both platforms.
- Not understanding that rate changes apply to both platforms simultaneously, leading to unintended pricing exposure if a promotional rate meant for one context ends up visible on both.
How This Fits With Your Other OTA Listings
Most hotels run MakeMyTrip/Goibibo alongside Booking.com, Agoda, and sometimes OYO as parallel booking channels. Since MakeMyTrip/Goibibo is effectively one channel from an inventory-management perspective, and Booking.com/Agoda is a separate pair with their own shared parentage but independent extranets, hotels managing three or more of these relationships typically benefit from a channel manager that syncs availability centrally, see our guide on CRM and channel manager integration for hotels for more on this.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to register separately for Goibibo if I’m already on MakeMyTrip? No, the shared Connect extranet means a single MakeMyTrip registration also lists your property on Goibibo. There is no separate standalone Goibibo partner application for the same property.
Can I set different prices on MakeMyTrip vs. Goibibo for the same room? No, since both platforms draw from the same rate and inventory data in the shared extranet, you cannot set platform-specific pricing between MakeMyTrip and Goibibo for the same property.
Is redBus related to this registration process? RedBus is also owned by MakeMyTrip Limited, but it’s a bus ticketing platform, not a hotel booking platform, it has no relevance to hotel listings and runs on entirely separate infrastructure from the hotel Connect extranet.
How long does the full process take from application to going live? With a complete document set, KYC approval typically takes 3 to 7 working days, and most hotels can be fully live, inventory loaded, photos uploaded, rates set, within 2 to 3 weeks of starting the process.
What if my hotel is already listed on MakeMyTrip but I want to update my documents or banking details? This is handled directly within the Connect extranet under your account/KYC settings, without needing to restart the full registration process.
