Algarve Fun is a Portuguese online travel agency (OTA) for activities along the Algarve coast, with its heaviest inventory in boat trips, including the Benagil caves, plus water sports, theme and water parks and day trips. For operators, it brings holidaymakers around Albufeira, Lagos, Vilamoura and Portimao, from families to stag and hen groups.

📒 NOTE

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

How it would connect

Algarve Fun would connect directly to Ventrata's OCTO API

Next step

Introduce Algarve Fun to [email protected]

 

Requesting an Algarve Fun Connection

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

FAQs

Does Ventrata integrate with Algarve Fun?

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

Can Algarve Fun connect to Ventrata?

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

How do I request an Algarve Fun integration?

Email your Algarve Fun 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 Algarve Fun'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 Algarve Fun connection do once it's live?

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