GDS

Decentralized Travel Booking Engine (Autonomous GDS Spider aka Booking Bot)

What is GDS

GDS is an NPM module that allows independent travel agents and All Global Nomads to search the internet for the best travel booking prices across a fully extendable travel booking engine directory, it can also be configured to allow Host Agency Booking Portals and provides a full mechanism to process payments via a stripe API bridge and book travel flights and accommodations on any pre-defined Third Party websites with a custom configuration file. As well as set smart contract commission agreements for travel services and instantly settle commission agreements on payments made via Crypto.
