ChangeGroup is an international currency exchange group owned by Prosegur, operating more than 100 bureaux de change at airports, city centers and tourist hubs in 37 cities across Europe, the United States and Australia. For operators, it brings travelers already in destination, around five million customers a year who exchange money, claim tax-free refunds or send transfers at a branch and buy tours and attraction tickets over the counter.

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

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