It’s well and truly awards season, with entries to SiteMinder’s 2024 Partner Awards closing in October and winners being announced in November.
Now is the perfect time to get involved, so make sure you check out all the vital information on our dedicated awards page.
We could roll out countless adjectives to explain why being a partner of SiteMinder is so valuable, why the awards are so important, and why winning one is something to be truly proud of. But why should we say it when we have a host of past winners who can do a much better job of it?
Let’s take a look back at some of our prior winners and what being recognised as a leader within the industry meant to them.
How does it feel to win a SiteMinder Partner Award?
As the industry’s leading hotel platform, providing hotels with unbeatable results, it’s a real feather in the cap to even be a finalist in SiteMinder’s awards, but winning one is something else:
Derek Martin, TrevPAR World, Expert Partner of the Year 2021, 2022, 2023
“Winning it once was a mega achievement but winning it a third time in a row validates all of our hard work and we feel really privileged to win this award.”
“The fact that we are in Africa and won SiteMinder’s global award opened up people’s eyes that SiteMinder can be a strong player in South Africa. We feel like we’re really working together with SiteMinder to contribute to the success of our industry.”
Tamie Matthews, RevenYou, People’s Choice of the Year 2023
“I’m so excited to win! We love nothing more than working with a wide range of clients and to watch them grow off the back of our expertise. To have them nominate us and essentially say thank you by helping us win this award, is icing on the cake.”
“We love working with SiteMinder, it has the best channel manager we have found. It’s easy to setup for our clients, it’s easy to use, and it’s instinctive.”
Sharon Smith, Hop Software, PMS Partner of the Year 2022
“Totally awesome to win the award. The team has worked so hard for three years to be where we are and to be recognised by SiteMinder today is fantastic.”
“SiteMinder is a great partner to work with, and it’s nice to have someone we know and trust when it comes to recommending tech to hotels and working with OTA connections that our clients prefer.”
Why is it important to be a part of the SiteMinder Partner Program?
Winning a partner award is just the cherry on top of all the benefits that are gained from being involved in SiteMinder’s Partner Program.
Let’s hear from some more of our celebrated winners on how they feel about participating in the program.
Amelia Gain, Preno, Rising Star of the Year 2022
“We’ve worked closely with SiteMinder as a partner for a long time so it feels great to be recognised. I don’t think there are enough awards in this space so SiteMinder’s awards are incredibly important.”
“The partner program has helped us immensely with customers building trust in us and it’s amazing to work alongside a like-minded business which is a leader within the industry.”
Munish Chetty, Marketing Distribution Concept, People’s Choice of the Year 2022

Savvas Georgiou, Welcome Pickups, App Partner of the Year 2023
“SiteMinder has been an invaluable partner in our journey as a business. The seamless integration between SiteMinder and Welcome Pickups allows hotels to offer a quality transport solution to their customers.
