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

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

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