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

Reseller Portal: let Plan A Agency book your products itself through your Reseller Portal, so its bookings go straight into Ventrata.
Manual bookings: enter Plan A Agency bookings yourself in the Backoffice, so your capacity stays accurate.
Through another connected platform: check the List of Supported Connections & Partners in case Plan A Agency sells through a platform that's already connected to Ventrata.
