The next step in connectivity: Price over API

In an effort to improve our connectivity with our partners, simplify the tasks of our suppliers and improve the experience of our travelers, we released a new feature: Price over API.

This feature has been long awaited and welcomed by both partners and suppliers. We have seen tremendous progress in its adoption, but we want to increase its adoption even more.

If you don’t offer yet Price over API to our mutual suppliers, find out how to do so here.

Questions? Our team will be happy to answer them.

Price over API is composed of two aspects, Pull and Push. Pull is when GetYourGuide requests price updates and availability. Push (Notify Availability Update endpoint) enables partners to send updates. 

There are many benefits to adopting this feature, but here are some highlights:

  • Partners strengthen their connectivity with Europe’s largest marketplace for travel activities, GetYourGuide. 

  • For the 2024 Connectivity Partner Program, adopting Price over API in its entirety (Pull and Push) significantly impacts partner scoring (take a look at the CPP Cheat Sheet and Program Guide about this).

  • Automates a previously manual task for suppliers  (price updates on GetYourGuide)

  • Automation also enables greater flexibility in pricing categories ( customer groups, seasons, times, etc.).

  • Reducing the need for manual updates minimizes the possibility of price mismatches and increases price parity, customer satisfaction, and revenue.
