The last thing any event organiser wants is for delegates to fall victim to online accommodation fraud. I-PRAC can help you get on with running an event, safe in the knowledge that your clients are protected from fraudsters.
Many event venues offer a limited supply of hotel rooms, with the allocation of resources usually managed by the event organisers. However, once the allocated rooms are filled, delegates often find themselves scrambling to find alternative accommodation within the vicinity of the event.
I-PRAC has discovered that some of the largest event organisers outsource their accommodation requirements to external agents who they feel can be trusted to offer their delegates a safe booking environment.
Unfortunately, these external agents often don’t have the listing resources to accommodate all guests. This is where problems arise, as clients can end up booking through illegitimate web portals, property owners or rental agencies, exposing them to the risk of rental fraud.
