In the latest edition of our product roundup, we’re introducing:
A way to save on transaction fees while better enabling group/corporate bookings
Tools to optimise your inventory and convert enquiries faster
Controls to save time managing on and off-sale and maximise revenue
Bank Transfers
Your customers can now pay via bank transfer post-booking
The Problem:
It’s challenging to reduce fees and increase margins when customers are only given the option to pay with credit card.
Some corporate bookings require invoices to be approved by an internal finance team before they can pay.
The Solution:
✓ Save on transaction fees: Bank Transfers have lower fees than credit cards and are available in more locations than instant-bank transfer
✓ Provide invoice status updates: Customers can download an invoice if they choose, and you can view updates as payment status changes (awaiting payment, payment received etc)
✓ Better enable corporate bookings: It’s now easier to convert bookings that require an approved invoice before paying

Availability View
See a timeline view of all products and variants by day, in their respective time zones, with time slot capacity
The Problem:
It’s challenging to visualise or find availability when you have experiences that start multiple times per week or per day.
If a customer submits an enquiry for multiple products (ex. Tickets, accommodations, and transportation), you have to check availability of each item individually.
The Solution:
✓ Single product view: Get a live, granular view of the availability and capacity of your products
✓ Convert enquiries faster: Make it easier to slot in inbound requests when you can clearly see availability and capacity of your products
✓ Increase revenue: Leave less inventory on the table and maximise the inventory you have

Online Booking Window
Pre-set the dates your experiences go live and are available to purchase online
The Problem:
There’s a need to automatically set on and off sale dates to manage things like pricing tiers and operational down-time before an experience starts.
You may want to prioritise stock for large group bookings, limiting instant online bookings to the week prior.
The Solution:
✓ Control advance bookings: You can determine when and for how long your experiences go on sale
✓ Remove manual inventory management: Easily control how much inventory is available online, without having to manually hide variants or leave products unpublished.
✓ Incentivise earlier bookings: Setting ticket tiers incentivises customers to jump on tickets early to secure the best price.
