Hotel Pull Sellers API Development Roadmap & Timings

Starting a new development is always a tricky task due to the lack of information surrounding the project and the difficulty to estimate the resources and time required. That lack of information leads to an - under or over - estimation of the resources needed and consequently to the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of the project planning, as well as a waste of time and resources.

At TravelgateX we want to ease that process by providing all the necessary information, roadmap and timings, to effectively calculate the amount of resources and timing that will require the Hotel Pull Sellers API development.

Hotel Pull Sellers API development

At TravelgateX we like to break projects into smaller tasks and as the saying goes: "a small step at a time". That's why we split the Hotel Pull Sellers API development into 3 phases:

1. The Content Phase

This is the phase where all the static content methods (Hotel list, Room list, Mealplan list, etc.) are implemented. 

On average, the Sellers developing the Hotel Pull Sellers API spend approximately 9 days in this phase.  

2. The Shopping phase: booking flow

• Search
• Quote
• Book

The shopping phase takes our Sellers, on average, 14 days.

3. The Reservation management phase

• Booking (reservation read and reservation list)
• Cancel

Our booking management methods takes our Sellers, on average, 7 days.

 

Adding up the three phases, it takes a total of 30 days to develop our Hotel Pull Sellers API. Obviously, the total time will depend on the amount of resources allocated to the project and the methods implemented (here you will find a list of the methods that are required).

Hotel Pull Sellers API certification

In order to certify that the Hotel Pull Sellers API has been developed and all the implemented methods work correctly, we will need you to provide a set of information, so we can perform all the scenarios required (more information here).

On average, our sellers spend approximately 15 days to certify our Hotel Pull Sellers API.

Buyer activation

Thanks to our automatic activation process, connecting a new Buyer takes on average 2 days.

Live

Here, the buyer should perform the mapping work and the testings prior to going live, so it has a noticeable impact in the total onboarding time (more information here). This step takes, on average, 7 days.
