Our business model

We are a leading global hotel search and price comparison platform.

Hotel search
made simple

trivago is a leading global hotel search and price comparison platform and one of the most recognized travel brands worldwide. We help travelers find the best place to stay and the best time to go by simplifying their hotel search experience. Our metasearch lists more than 5.0 million hotels and other types of accommodation in over 190 countries. Once travelers find their perfect deal on trivago, they are seamlessly directed to the advertiser’s booking site to complete their reservation.

How we
make money

We are a marketplace for our advertisers and match our users’ searches with large numbers of hotel and other accommodation offers. Advertisers can either pay us when a user clicks on their advertised rate (Cost-per-click), or when a booking is completed (Cost-per-acquisition). In both cases, travelers are redirected to the advertiser’s website, where they book their perfect stay.

Stepping into the German tech market was always in my career plan, and trivago was one of a few companies that have always interested me because I knew it would be a perfect place for my professional growth.

Working in HR has not been easy these past years and we had to deal with quite some ambiguity across different topics but luckily here at trivago I met a lot of people that share the same work ethics as I do, which makes collaboration productive and fun.

Brand Media Buying Lead

Graduating in tourism during the pandemic was a challenge, but things fell into place. Right after, a friend from trivago told me about an open role as an International Media Buyer. I applied, got it, and life immediately got busier and more exciting!

Data Scientist

When I started out as a part-time working student, focusing on quality assurance, I was introduced to the domain of data exploration. Since then, I have been captivated by the excitement of delving into data to discover new perspectives and create value.

Carolina

Carolina

Strategy & Operations Lead

I've always been a doer, a maker — the type who likes to imagine the concept, plan the operations, and bring things to reality — and nothing is better than being in a company that encourages the intrapreneurial spirit for me to explore my full potential.

Saskia

Saskia

Backend Engineering Lead

I started working at trivago nearly 12 years ago when I was still in school and wanted to earn some extra money on top of my usual allowance. At that time I was already participating in computer science classes, and with trivago being an IT company in my hometown of Düsseldorf, all my requirements were fulfilled!
