Thermal: Reseller Connection (Not Yet Available)

Ventrata doesn't connect to Thermal yet. See how to request a Thermal integration through the OCTO standard, and what to do meanwhile.

📒 NOTE

Ventrata doesn't currently support a reseller connection with Thermal. Thermal isn't available under Connections → Connections in the Ventrata Dashboard yet, so your availability, prices and bookings can't sync with Thermal automatically.

Requesting a Thermal Connection

We're always open to new integrations. Thermal can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Thermal could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Thermal would be created in Ventrata instantly, with Ventrata tickets issued to the customer.

 

To set up an integration project:

  1. Introduce us. If you work with Thermal, send one email to your Thermal contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Thermal.

  2. We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Thermal, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.

  3. Thermal builds and certifies the connection. Thermal 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.

  4. Connect and sell. Once it's live, Thermal appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.

If Thermal works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Thermal after your introduction.

📗 TIP

See How to Request a New API Connection or Partner for what to include in your introduction email, with a sample you can copy.

 

Working with Thermal in the Meantime

Until a connection is live, you can still sell through Thermal in whichever way suits you, for example:

  • Reseller Portal: let Thermal book your products itself through your Reseller Portal, so its bookings go straight into Ventrata.

  • Manual bookings: enter Thermal bookings yourself in the Backoffice, so your capacity stays accurate.

  • Through another connected platform: check the List of Supported Connections & Partners in case Thermal sells through a platform that's already connected to Ventrata.

 

FAQs

Does Ventrata integrate with Thermal?

Not yet. There's no reseller connection between Ventrata and Thermal today, so availability, prices and bookings don't sync automatically. You can request one: introduce Thermal to [email protected], as described above.

Can Thermal connect to Ventrata?

Yes. Thermal can connect through Ventrata's OCTO API, the same open standard behind Ventrata's 350+ API connections. Nothing needs to be built on your side. If Thermal prefers its own API specification, we're happy to consider that as well.

How do I request a Thermal integration?

Email your Thermal contact and [email protected] together, and say which products you'd like to sell. Ventrata's connectivity team takes it from there. See How to Request a New API Connection or Partner for details.

How long does it take?

It depends on Thermal's development team. Most resellers finish building in 2 to 10 business days, followed by OCTO certification and Ventrata's own checks. We keep you updated throughout.

What will the Thermal connection do once it's live?

Like Ventrata's other OCTO reseller connections, Thermal could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Thermal would be created in Ventrata instantly, with Ventrata tickets issued to the customer. See Connections & Partners Explained for how connections work.
