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

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