The short version

  • Each has a real cost: myCWT pricing is per transaction and agent touches cost several times an online booking, so a programme with low online adoption pays far more per trip than the quoted online fee implies.; Revinate pricing is not published and is quoted per property scaled by room count with a monthly floor, so small properties often find the minimum higher than the campaign revenue they can realistically generate.
  • They diverge on capability: myCWT covers Online booking tool, Revinate covers Guest profile resolution.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

myCWT

  • Pricing is per transaction and agent touches cost several times an online booking, so a programme with low online adoption pays far more per trip than the quoted online fee implies.
  • myCWT cannot be licensed as software on its own, so a buyer who likes the tool but wants a different servicing partner has no route to it.
  • CWT was acquired by Amex Global Business Travel, with the deal closing in July 2025, leaving genuine uncertainty about whether the myCWT platform survives long term alongside Amex GBT's own Egencia and Neo tools.
  • Hotel content is anchored on the CWT programme, so clients with strong direct hotel relationships often find their own negotiated rates displayed inconsistently against programme rates.
  • The consumer facing app trails mainstream booking apps on search speed and content breadth, which suppresses online adoption and therefore raises the average transaction cost of the programme.

Revinate

  • Pricing is not published and is quoted per property scaled by room count with a monthly floor, so small properties often find the minimum higher than the campaign revenue they can realistically generate.
  • Value depends on database size and quality; a hotel with a few thousand contacts and mostly OTA business will not recover the licence cost through email revenue.
  • The platform is sold as several products including marketing, messaging and reservation sales, so the quoted figure often covers less than a buyer assumes and the full stack costs considerably more.
  • Profile resolution quality depends on how the PMS was operated, and a property with poor data capture at check-in gets a cleaner database that is still missing email addresses for most guests.
  • It is hotel-specific, so a group with mixed accommodation including serviced apartments or vacation rentals will find parts of the model and integrations do not fit those units.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

myCWT: Can I buy myCWT without using CWT as my travel agency?

No. It is delivered as part of a CWT managed travel contract and is not licensed separately.

Revinate: What does Revinate cost?

It is not published. Expect a per property monthly figure scaled by room count with a minimum, and confirm which products are inside that number.

myCWT: What actually drives the cost?

Transaction fees. The gap between an online booking fee and an agent touched fee is the single biggest lever, so measure your likely online adoption before comparing quotes.

Revinate: Does it replace my email tool?

Yes for guest marketing, because it is built on merged PMS profiles rather than a contact list you upload.

myCWT: Does the Amex GBT acquisition affect the platform?

It creates roadmap risk. Amex GBT completed the CWT acquisition in July 2025 and already runs Egencia and Neo, so ask for written platform commitments across the contract term.

Revinate: Will it work with a small database?

Poorly. The economics depend on having enough guest records with usable email addresses to generate attributable revenue.

Revinate: Is Ivy included?

Not necessarily. Messaging is priced separately from the marketing platform; confirm in writing.
