How It Works
iTrip.net is comprised of a group of independent licensees each owning their own exclusive territory in the iTrip system. The licensee provides customer service to the vacation rental property owner while iTrip.net provides networking and internet traffic to the vacation rental portal. Travelers can search iTrip.net to find a vacation rental at no charge.

Property owners and customers benefit from online booking, flexible rental periods and rates. Exclusion of “rotation” practices, more freedom for the property owner to enjoy their investment and overage bookings realized by multiple units in the system are benefits associated with iTrip.net’s business model. The company thinks of said model as “virtual property management” for the rental owners.

Competitive Environment
iTrip.net competes with many online vacation rental companies including istopover.com, Homeaway.com and FlipKey. These sites allow travelers to go online and browse vacation rental properties for free. In 2008, TripAdvisor announced it was taking a majority stake in FlipKey. VRBO.com, owned by HomeAway.com, also offers online vacation rentals.
