Trip.com is one of Trip.com Group's global consumer-facing travel platforms. Official sources show hotels and flights alongside trains, rental cars and additional travel products.

## Ecosystem role

Trip.com carries both OTA and travel-marketplace roles. Travelers can discover, compare and book across multiple verticals under one brand surface.

## Multi-vertical identity

Hotel properties, flight itineraries, train journeys and rental-car products are different canonical entities. Their vertical-specific identifiers and lifecycles should remain intact even inside one consumer session.

## Developer / partner surface

Trip.com also provides separate developer and partner surfaces. Do not treat the consumer Trip.com entity and partner API products as one technical contract.

## Technical modeling

Separate platform, vertical, supplier, seller, booking owner, payment owner and servicing owner, especially in cross-sell and package scenarios.
