Rethinking Hotel Distribution with a Brand New RateTiger

For the first time in its 20 years of existence, RateTiger has updated its brand logo.

The change in visual identity aligns with the product’s focus on Distribution and Connectivity and the infinite possibilities that RateTiger offers through its secure and scalable solutions. A new product focused RateTiger website was unveiled as part of this rebranding. The RateTiger product user interface has also been redesigned to make it more intuitive to make the navigation clearer and fill any usability gaps, to make every interaction seamless.

Clearly change is the only constant!

Every company evolves with time and keeps updating its products, offerings and value proposition. Since its inception in 2001, eRevMax, the company behind RateTiger, has evolved from a single product company to a multi-product, multi-brand entity. At the heart of this product rebrand is the company’s desire to align its visual identity with the company’s core values and principles, to accurately reflect what RateTiger stands for today.

Here is an update from the company regarding their rebranding initiative.

The Evolution of RateTiger

Background

eRevMax was founded in 2001 and we were the 1st to introduce the concept of online rate shopping through our first product RateTiger Shopper in 2002. Driven by the initial success, we went on to launch industry’s first hotel channel management software in 2004 - RateTiger Channel Manager.

The tool was developed based on requirements shared by hoteliers and witnessed a lot of early adopters in the West. Since then, we have developed a multitude of solutions which has helped shape the hospitality online distribution space. Here below is a timeline showing some key milestones in our journey so far.

RateTiger Today in 2022

The RateTiger brand has evolved over the last 20 years. Keeping in line with our key goal of Distributing Happiness, the logo and the new website has been designed. The primary idea behind this new logo is to represent the clear purpose of RateTiger - “Bridge that connects hotels to the online world of infinite possibilities”.

The Concept behind Rebranding

The infinity symbol in the logo represents the limitless possibilities and our dedication to serve the hoteliers. The color blue which is the color of the sky and the ocean represents the unlimited trust our clients have on us and security we provide to them.

The new RateTiger Website gives a clear picture of our technology and solutions, making it easier for hotel to navigate through our offerings. At the helm of RateTiger is a diverse and experienced team working dedicatedly towards our goal of “Distributing Happiness”.
