Opero Channel Manager connects the system you run to online travel agencies. Map each listing to the product behind it once, and every channel sells from the same pool as your counter. A booking anywhere changes what everywhere else can sell.
In pilot with Follow Me To Maldives. Viator and GetYourGuide next. An optional add-on, priced at launch.

How it works
From the Counter's Sell on OTAs page, connect Opero POS in one step. The channel manager reads your services, options, schedules and capacity, and keeps them in step as you change them.
Every online listing, with its options and schedules, is mapped to one product in your system. Do it once at onboarding; the channel manager never guesses by name.
A season grid per service and channel, apart from your counter price. The channel manager carries each rate to that one channel, which adds its commission. Nothing is converted or marked up on the way.
Every sale, cancellation, hold and capacity change sends the new remaining count to every channel the slot is on. A channel booking holds a seat in your system before it is confirmed, then lands in your counter with the channel named.

Channels and systems
One connector per channel, one connector per system. Adding either never changes how the other side works.
Channels
The Maldives online travel agency. First channel, in pilot: listings, live counts, bookings, rates and payments both ways.
Next. We are going through the connectivity partner programme; the channel manager will act as your reservation system there.
Next, on the same footing as Viator. Every channel added sells from the same pool.
Systems
Connected from the Counter in one step. Catalogue, capacity, rates and bookings flow both ways today.
One connector per system, so an operator keeps the tools they already run.
For operators with no system: maintain products, slots and capacity in the channel manager itself and receive bookings there.
Questions
A channel manager for excursion and activity operators. It connects the system you run to online travel agencies, maps each of your listings to the product behind it, and keeps every channel selling from the same pool of capacity as your counter. Bookings made on a channel land in your system with the channel named, and what happens on site flows back.
Follow Me To Maldives is the first channel and is in pilot now. Viator and GetYourGuide are next: we are going through their connectivity partner programmes, and neither is live yet. Every channel you add sells from the same pool.
Opero POS today: an operator connects from the Counter's Sell on OTAs page and the channel manager reads the catalogue, capacity and rates from there. Connectors for other point of sale and reservation systems, and an extranet for operators with no system, are planned.
Capacity is one pool. Every sale, cancellation, capacity change and hold in your system sends the channel manager the new remaining count for that slot, and it passes the count to every channel the slot is listed on. A booking from any channel holds a seat in your system first, so the last seat can only go once.
You do, in the Counter: net rates per channel and per season, separate from your counter price. The channel manager carries them to that one channel, which adds its own commission to reach the guest price. It never converts or marks up a rate.
Exactly what the channel told the guest, in the channel's currency. The booking in your counter is priced at that amount, so the drawer, the receipt and the channel agree.
It will be an optional paid add-on, priced when it launches. It is in pilot now. Nothing that runs your operation in Opero POS moves behind it.
