Ventrata doesn't connect to Staybook yet. See how to request a Staybook integration through the OCTO standard, and what to do meanwhile.

Staybook is an Indian travel booking platform based in New Delhi for hotels, admission tickets, tours, activities and rail passes, focused on curated stays and experiences across India with hotel listings in around 180 cities. For operators, it brings Indian domestic leisure and business travelers who book things to do alongside rooms and day-use stays, plus outbound travelers buying rail tickets for Japan, Taiwan and Europe.

📒 NOTE

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

Requesting a Staybook Connection

We're always open to new integrations. Staybook can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Staybook could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Staybook would be created in Ventrata instantly, with Ventrata tickets issued to the customer.

 

To set up an integration project:

  1. Introduce us. If you work with Staybook, send one email to your Staybook contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Staybook.

  2. We take it from here. Ventrata's connectivity team contacts Staybook, shares Ventrata's OCTO API documentation and test credentials, and agrees the plan with them.

  3. Staybook builds and certifies the connection. Staybook 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.

  4. Connect and sell. Once it's live, Staybook appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.

If Staybook works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Staybook after your introduction.

📗 TIP

Working with Staybook in the Meantime

Until a connection is live, you can still sell through Staybook in whichever way suits you, for example:

  • Reseller Portal: let Staybook book your products itself through your Reseller Portal, so its bookings go straight into Ventrata.

  • Manual bookings: enter Staybook bookings yourself in the Backoffice, so your capacity stays accurate.

  • Through another connected platform: check the List of Supported Connections & Partners in case Staybook sells through a platform that's already connected to Ventrata.

 

FAQs

Does Ventrata integrate with Staybook?

Not yet. There's no reseller connection between Ventrata and Staybook today, so availability, prices and bookings don't sync automatically. You can request one: introduce Staybook to [email protected], as described above.

Can Staybook connect to Ventrata?

Yes. Staybook can connect through Ventrata's OCTO API, the same open standard behind Ventrata's 350+ API connections. Nothing needs to be built on your side. If Staybook prefers its own API specification, we're happy to consider that as well.

How do I request a Staybook integration?

Email your Staybook contact and [email protected] together, and say which products you'd like to sell. Ventrata's connectivity team takes it from there. See How to Request a New API Connection or Partner for details.

How long does it take?

It depends on Staybook's development team. Most resellers finish building in 2 to 10 business days, followed by OCTO certification and Ventrata's own checks. We keep you updated throughout.

What will the Staybook connection do once it's live?

Like Ventrata's other OCTO reseller connections, Staybook could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Staybook would be created in Ventrata instantly, with Ventrata tickets issued to the customer. See Connections & Partners Explained for how connections work.
