Channel Manager — illustration

Why this matters

OTAs drive 30–60% of bookings for most tour operators — and they all want real-time inventory, real-time pricing, and instant booking ingestion. The standalone channel-manager SaaS (Rezdy, Bokun, Cloudbeds) that solves this charges $99 to $299 per month, every month, forever. They also sit between you and the OTA, see your customer data, and add latency to every sync. Yatra Channel Manager talks to each OTA directly, lives inside your own WordPress, and costs nothing extra on the Agency plan.

What changes once Channel Manager is on

Concrete operational outcomes — not feature checkboxes.

  • Zero double-bookings — pessimistic locks on every seat during promotion.
  • Real-time inventory sync — event-driven push fires the moment availability, pricing, or bookings change.
  • Direct API access — no proxy, no markup, no customer-data leakage.
  • Signed webhook ingestion — HMAC-SHA256 + timestamp freshness checks reject replay attacks.
  • Per-channel circuit breaker — a flaking OTA can't drag down the rest.

What you get

Every surface, every toggle, every audit trail — covered.

Channels tab

One connection per OTA. Encrypted credentials (libsodium AEAD), sandbox/live toggle, commission %, inventory buffer, price offset. Health badge per channel.

Trip mappings

Link each Yatra trip to its counterpart product on each OTA. Per-mapping price override + sync toggles + bulk operations.

Bookings inbox

Inbound OTA bookings stage here, then promote into the main Yatra booking list with full traveler details.

Sync activity log

90-day audit trail of every push, pull, and webhook with HTTP status, duration, and full error context.

Webhook receiver

Public signed endpoint, always-on. Never drops inbound bookings even when the module is being reconfigured.

Hourly safety-net cron

If a webhook misses, the cron pulls last-24h bookings and reconciles. No lost reservations.

The SaaS this replaces

Same capability. Without the monthly bill or the data middleman.

How you turn it on

No engineering. Open Yatra → Modules, toggle, follow the wizard.

  1. 1

    Apply for OTA partner access

    Viator + GetYourGuide both take 1–4 weeks to approve. Start the application before you wire up the technical side.

  2. 2

    Enable + add channel

    Toggle the module on, then create a Channel record per OTA. Paste API key + webhook signing secret. Click Test connection.

  3. 3

    Map your trips

    Link each Yatra trip to its OTA product ID. Set a per-channel price offset to cover commission and keep your net whole.

  4. 4

    Go live

    Start in sandbox, verify a test booking flows end-to-end, then flip to Live. Yatra handles inventory + pricing pushes automatically.

Questions before you upgrade

Which OTAs are supported today?
Built-in adapters for Viator and GetYourGuide — the two largest tour-and-activity OTAs by booking volume. Additional channels are implemented per request via the ProviderInterface contract; file a request with the OTA you need and we will scope it with you.
Do I need a partner agreement with each OTA?
Yes. OTAs only issue API keys to approved suppliers. Apply directly: viator.com/supplier for Viator, supplier.getyourguide.com for GetYourGuide. Typical lead time 1–4 weeks. Yatra doesn't broker these relationships.
How is overbooking prevented if two channels sell the last seat?
During booking promotion the module takes a pessimistic database lock on the trip availability row, validates the seat is still free, then commits. Concurrent attempts on the same seat are rejected with a clean error so the OTA can re-offer their customer an alternative.
What happens if a webhook is missed or fails?
Two safety nets. First, the receiver returns 200 OK even on signature failure (logged separately) so the OTA never retries-stormingly. Second, an hourly cron pulls the last 24 hours of bookings from each channel and reconciles. Nothing falls through.
Where are credentials stored?
In the WordPress database, encrypted via libsodium AEAD (XChaCha20-Poly1305). The admin UI never displays the full credential after save — only a masked last-4 hint. The encryption key derives from your WP secret keys; rotate those and credentials remain valid.
Can I run multiple accounts on the same OTA?
Yes. Each Channel record is independent — use the Account label field to distinguish e.g. "US production" and "EU staging". Both can be Live simultaneously.
