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

Requesting an Entrées Connection
We're always open to new integrations. Entrées can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Entrées could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Entrées 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 Entrées, send one email to your Entrées contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Entrées.
We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Entrées, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.
Entrées builds and certifies the connection. Entrées 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, Entrées appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.
If Entrées works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Entrées 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 Entrées in the Meantime
Until a connection is live, you can still sell through Entrées in whichever way suits you, for example:
Reseller Portal: let Entrées book your products itself through your Reseller Portal, so its bookings go straight into Ventrata.
Manual bookings: enter Entrées bookings yourself in the Backoffice, so your capacity stays accurate.
Through another connected platform: check the List of Supported Connections & Partners in case Entrées sells through a platform that's already connected to Ventrata.
