Video Walkthrough Create Unique Booking Widgets for Partnered Resellers Step 1: Find the Widget Link Not seeing the Reseller? Step 2: Share the Widget Installment Instructions With The Reseller

When you partner with resellers, there are various Reseller Booking Methods those partners‍ can use to accept bookings on behalf of your business. This article illustrates how reseller sales can be tracked using booking widgets. 

For this method to work properly:

  • Your team must produce unique booking widget(s) for each reseller. In other words, if you want to track the sales of both a local hotel and a local resort, you would need to create separate widgets for each one.
  • The reseller must use their designated booking widgets consistently when booking.
