Requesting an Experience Oz Connection
We're always open to new integrations. Experience Oz can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Experience Oz could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Experience Oz 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 Experience Oz, send one email to your Experience Oz contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Experience Oz.
We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Experience Oz, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.
Experience Oz builds and certifies the connection. Experience Oz 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, Experience Oz appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.
If Experience Oz works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Experience Oz after your introduction.
📗 TIP

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