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

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