Travelzoo: Reseller Connection (Not Yet Available)

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

Travelzoo is a members-only travel deals club publishing negotiated and test-booked travel and entertainment offers, reaching 30 million travelers through country editions in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Australia and Japan. For operators, it brings deal-led demand from travel enthusiasts who pay an annual membership for access to its offers.

📒 NOTE

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

Requesting a Travelzoo Connection

We're always open to new integrations. Travelzoo can connect to Ventrata directly through OCTO, the open API standard for tours, activities and attractions that Ventrata helped found. Once it's connected, Travelzoo could check your live availability and prices in Ventrata, and bookings, changes and cancellations made on Travelzoo 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 Travelzoo, send one email to your Travelzoo contact and [email protected], so both teams are in the same thread. Say which products you'd like to sell through Travelzoo.

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

  3. Travelzoo builds and certifies the connection. Travelzoo 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, Travelzoo appears under Connections → Connections, and you connect it like any other reseller.

If Travelzoo works with its own API specification rather than OCTO, we're happy to consider that too. We'll discuss the options with Travelzoo 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 Travelzoo in the Meantime

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

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

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

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

 

FAQs

Does Ventrata integrate with Travelzoo?

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

Can Travelzoo connect to Ventrata?

Yes. Travelzoo 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 Travelzoo prefers its own API specification, we're happy to consider that as well.

How do I request a Travelzoo integration?

Email your Travelzoo 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 Travelzoo'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 Travelzoo connection do once it's live?

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