Requesting a Caribba Connect Connection
We're always open to new integrations. Caribba Connect can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Caribba Connect could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Caribba Connect would be created in Ventrata instantly, with Ventrata tickets issued to the customer.
To set up an integration project:
Introduce us. If you work with Caribba Connect, send one email to your Caribba Connect contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Caribba Connect.
We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Caribba Connect, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.
Caribba Connect builds and certifies the connection. Caribba Connect builds against the OCTO API and passes OCTO certification, then Ventrata certifies it with test bookings. Most resellers finish development in 2 to 10 business days.
Connect and sell. Once it's live, Caribba Connect appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.
If Caribba Connect works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Caribba Connect after your introduction.
📗 TIP

Working with Caribba Connect in the Meantime
Until a connection is live, you can still sell through Caribba Connect in whichever way suits you, for example:
Reseller Portal: let Caribba Connect book your products itself through your Reseller Portal, so its bookings go straight into Ventrata.
Manual bookings: enter Caribba Connect bookings yourself in the Backoffice, so your capacity stays accurate.
Through another connected platform: check the List of Supported Connections & Partners in case Caribba Connect sells through a platform that's already connected to Ventrata.
