BeMyGuest launches booking system for Asian tour suppliers
Singapore based tours and activity aggregator BeMyGuest has unveiled an industry first booking system and channel manager specifically for Asian attractions, tours and activity suppliers.
Announced at ITB Asia 2018 in Singapore, Xplore allows suppliers to collect payments in multiple Asian currencies and run product promotions in multiple languages for their B2C customers.
Xplore is available in a software as a service model and its channel manager function allows suppliers to generate electronic tickets to B2B customers, in bulk to traditional travel agents, or via a booking API to the supplier’s OTA partners.
"For many years BeMyGuest has been bridging the technology gap that exists between a very digitally enabled distribution landscape and a very, manual and traditional supply of attractions, tours and activities products in Asia," said CEO Clement Wong.
Blanca Menchaca, COO and co-founder of BeMyGuest said: We developed Xplore to support operators by providing the tools they need to scale online sales, specifically real-time availability and instant confirmation. Collecting weight for example, is vital information a hot air balloon operator in Myanmar needs to know to be able to confirm a booking, but traditionally the operator would contact the customer directly to collect this information."
"The system digitises such complex check-out options as well as capacity and time-slots, immediately transforming products previously unavailable to be instantly booked."
Xplore also links with BeMyGuest’s existing distribution network which includes the BeMyGuest Agent Marketplace comprising about 500 traditional travel agencies, and via API to major Asia based travel sites such as Indonesia’s Traveloka, Ctrip, and Naver in Korea.
