History

In 2015, Las Vegas-based Remark Holdings (then known as Remark Media) acquired Vegas.com with the goal of making it the "go-to booking destination for new millennial travelers." Remark Media paid a reported $15.5 million in cash and $9.5 million in stock, with $10 million in future stock options and up to $3 million depending on Vegas.com's performance in the following three years.
