Stop being the
invisible middleman.
You find the customers. You curate the experiences. You do the work. Then the OTA takes the commission and keeps the customer relationship. Spotinga gives you the tools to go direct — or use our infrastructure to power your own operation without rebuilding from scratch.
If you curate or distribute experiences for others
Spotinga works across the distribution chain. Whether you sell for someone else, build for someone else, or market for someone else — this is for you.
Curate experiences for clients and book directly without going through OTAs — keeping your margin and your customer relationship.
DMOs, CVBs, and regional tourism bodies helping operators go online and become visible on Google without enterprise contracts.
Building a curated experiences marketplace? Use the Spotinga API as infrastructure — booking engine, contacts, and GTTD in one stack.
Operators who run experiences on behalf of hotels, airlines, or corporate clients — needing a clean booking system without public branding.
The OTA dependency trap
OTA commission rates vary, but the direction is always the same: up. Promotional slots cost more. Premium positioning costs more. Eventually you're working for the platform.
The OTA owns the customer email, the review, and the next re-engagement campaign. When they book again, it'll be on the OTA's terms — not yours.
Commission restructures, search algorithm updates, review policy changes — each one can sink a reseller's revenue overnight. You have no control and no recourse.
That's the average cut Viator and GetYourGuide take on every booking you generate.
On a $200 tour, you just handed $50 to a platform that doesn't know your customer, your story, or your destination — and keeps the contact details for their next remarketing campaign.
Be visible where travellers book
Google Things To Do (GTTD) lets experiences appear directly in Google Search and Maps results — not as an ad, but as a native booking option. OTAs have had this advantage for years. Spotinga gives it directly to operators and resellers.
As a certified GTTD connectivity partner, Spotinga publishes your products to Google's feed. Travellers see your experiences. They click. They book — directly with you. The customer is yours, not the OTA's.
You choose how much of the stack you use
Spotinga is modular by design. Some resellers just need GTTD connectivity. Others want the full booking engine. Power users build on the API.
Use Spotinga purely to publish your products to Google Things To Do. Keep your existing website and booking systems — just add Google visibility.
Run GTTD plus a complete direct booking flow. Customers book directly through your Spotinga-powered storefront — or embed the widget on your own site.
Use the Spotinga REST API to power your own marketplace, white-label product, or custom integration. Early access available — reach out to get on the list.
The customer list that nobody can take away
Every booking through your Spotinga storefront creates a contact you own. Build segments. Run campaigns. Reward loyal bookers. Offer early access to new experiences. Market directly to people who already trust you — without paying an OTA for the privilege.
No algorithm. No policy change can cut your reach to these customers. This is your list, in your account, exportable at any time.
