I used them too but soon got unsolicited spam email trying to sell me visa services etc. They ask for info from you before passing it to the hotel when really only the hotel needs your info. Clearly they are harvesting data for future use or resale. See below:

If you search for a hotel in Bangkok on Agoda it asks you:

Quote

Visiting Thailand? Start here, and make sure your entry requirements are covered.
Book stays for vaccinated travelers with inclusive PCR tests and airport transfer, or all-inclusive quarantine stays for non-vaccinated travelers.

Then you click on the button there to just see those packages. This is probably one of the easiest ways to book such a package.

I ended up booking direct with the hotel, wouldn't say it was a pleasant experience they all a bit backwards like its 1990, here's a word doc  or pdf please fill in your credit card details for authorization including security code etc.. you could return it via email though instead of fax or carrier pigeon. Use a disposable/one-time card if you go this route as its extremely insecure - if it did leak though the merchant would be in clear violation of PCI-DSS (a set of terms governing how card data is transitted and managed, and which is enforced at the scheme level - i.e. visa / mastercard / amex)  so you'd have little problem with getting the charges refunded for peace of mind.

I got the same email once. I deleted it and haven't seen anything since. The asq.in.th is a handy up-to-date portal of available hotels and once you select the hotel, you are dealing direct with that hotel.

well they went to all the trouble to create that website and keep it up to date, for free by the way, so why should they not be allowed to shill their paid services?

Agoda is simple and definitely gives you all necessary information needed to apply for the new Thailand Pass on one sheet.

It would be expected that they built their website to earn commission from the hotels. Nothing wrong with that and they have created a good and useful website. They appear to be a booking website except you do not book with them. They collect all your data and supply it to the hotel who then contacts you to proceed a booking. What the website at asq.in.th does not do is state they they will share your data with 3rd parties nor do they give you the option to "opt out" of this. Could you imagine if booking.com, Expedia, Agoda etc. did the same and shared your full name, date of birth, nationality and travel plans with 3rd parties? Nowhere on the asq.in.th site do they say that they are thaivisacentre.com. They have a "privacy policy" that is clearly worthless. Next time I will be more guarded with my info. Maybe you don't care about yours as much.

Agoda was the simplest.
