The travel request market in Central Asia and for outbound travelers is fragmented, offline, and opaque. Ketmon gives travelers and agencies a structured request workflow.
The problem
Travelers find agencies through WhatsApp groups and word of mouth — no price transparency, no protection.
Agencies compete on price in chat groups and lose bookings to off-platform deals.
No structured request record, weak follow-up, and little visibility if something goes wrong.
The solution
Verified agencies, transparent pricing, and request tracking — all in one place.
Travelers can send structured requests and get agency follow-up without leaving Ketmon.
Immutable booking records, SLA enforcement, and dispute resolution protect both sides.
Business model
Lead fees
Agencies pay a fee per qualified lead delivered. Travelers pay nothing.
Agency operating balance
Agency-side operating balances support internal request handling and governance tools.
Future streams
Additional agency-side services may be added later if the pilot expands.
Market
Uzbekistan alone processes millions of outbound and inbound tourist trips annually. The vast majority are booked offline with no digital paper trail.
