SPARK POP: Reseller Connection (Not Yet Available)

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

SPARK POP is an Australian online marketplace for family experiences, listing around 1,400 activities from more than 300 brands and selling experience gift cards alongside direct bookings. For operators, it brings families in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast, with school holiday, birthday party and corporate group demand.

📒 NOTE

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

Requesting a SPARK POP Connection

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

FAQs

Does Ventrata integrate with SPARK POP?

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

Can SPARK POP connect to Ventrata?

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

How do I request a SPARK POP integration?

Email your SPARK POP 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 SPARK POP'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 SPARK POP connection do once it's live?

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