Distributors Overview

Why TXA is revolutionising Australian tourism marketing

TXA provides direct connection to the
Supplier’s booking system

The key difference between The Exchange and earlier models and technologies is that we offer genuine dynamic two-way ‘direct connection’ to the booking system of the Supplier.

This allows Distributors easy access to comprehensive data from a portfolio of accommodation, tours, ticketed events and attraction businesses with the most sophisticated and easy-to-use management tools.

TXA is the single national booking exchange

Supported by all State and Federal Government Tourism Organisations, TXA has been selected by the GTOs to facilitate a more cost effective way for Distributors to access and sell Suppliers’ inventory.

TXA enables access to comprehensive and
valuable information through one set of services

Unlike traditional ‘bed banks’, ‘inventory pools’ or ‘affiliate’ models that only supply rates and/or availability, with TXA you choose what you want to use.

TXA can provide;

Business and product description (ATDW or Supplier self-authored).
Live rates.
Live availability.
Multiple points of booking.
Ability to create ‘campaign’ pricing.
Full, detailed reporting.

TXA gives you The Right Tools

To cost-effectively use the data in the Exchange, you can choose:

Booking Pages for your listed Suppliers.
Search and Book Pages to search across all Suppliers for live availability and pricing.
eXchange Booking API to keep the consumer completely within your system right through to booking completion.
LaunchPad.
