Tiket.com, the immediate competition of Traveloka in Indonesia, is now Go-Jek’s latest partner

Go-Jek has announced its latest collaboration, this time with Indonesia’s online travel booking startup Tiket.com to launch Go-Travel, as reported by KrAsia. This comes after announcing that its users are now armed with a chat room.

Go-Travel will allow Go-Jek’s users to book hotel rooms through Go-Jek. However, the option will only allow bookings for hotels, and not for flights or train tickets.

Go-Pay isn’t available as a payment option for Go-Travel just yet and the company said it will spend more time to integrate the experience.

Tiket.com reemerged as a travel booking frontrunner after being acquired by GDP Venture through e-commerce platform Blibli in 2017. Blibli and Tiket.com are both owned by Djarum Group, an Indonesian conglomerate.

Aside from Go-Travel, recent news also said that Go-Jek is developing a Go-Mall feature on its apps that will have JD.id and, possibly, Blibli.
