Marketplace Platforms
Every seat sold once, every voucher scannable offline, and operators paid after the guests actually travel.
Travel marketplace development in the Philippines runs on a kind of inventory nothing else shares: a seat on Saturday's 6am boat to Coron is worth full price on Friday and worth nothing on Sunday.
An animated week booking calendar for a clinic: patients fill open time slots themselves, a two-hour appointment visibly holds the hour beneath it so the slot cannot be double-booked, and an automatic reminder is sent before the visit.
Patients book their own slot, reminders do the chasing, and nobody gets booked twice.

Date and headcount chosen first, with live remaining capacity, so nobody plans a trip around a boat that filled an hour ago. Per-person pricing with child, senior and PWD rates, joiner versus private options priced differently, add-ons like transfers, gear rental, drone shots and environmental fees, and a cut-off that closes bookings at the time the operator actually needs the manifest.
A capacity calendar per departure or time slot, not a stock count. Seasonal and holiday rate cards, blackout dates, minimum-pax rules that auto-cancel an under-filled joiner tour on a set day, and a manifest with guest names, ages, contact numbers and dietary or medical notes ready to hand to the coast guard or the resort. Operators confirm or decline inside a countdown.
Confirmation is a QR voucher in email, Messenger or Viber, with the pickup point, the guide's number and what to bring. Guides check guests in by scanning, and the app works offline — a boat captain in El Nido has no data and the check-in cannot depend on it. Scans sync when signal returns, and the manifest exports as a printable sheet for anyone who prefers paper.
Travel rarely takes one payment. Book with a 30-50% downpayment, balance due a set number of days before departure, with automatic reminders and an auto-release of the seat if the balance lapses. GCash, Maya and local cards through PayMongo, international cards for foreign guests, and prices displayed in USD or EUR while settling in pesos so an Australian family can see what they are actually paying.
The policy is enforced by the platform, not argued in Messenger at 5am. Tiered refunds by days before departure, a separate weather and force-majeure rule that offers rebooking credit rather than cash, and operator-initiated cancellation that refunds guests automatically and logs against the operator's record. Guests see the policy before paying, which is where most travel disputes are actually won.
The mechanic that makes travel different: money is held until the departure date has passed and no dispute is open, then released minus commission. Paying at booking means chasing an operator for a refund when a typhoon cancels a trip they never ran. Payout runs go to GCash or bank on your schedule, with a per-operator ledger of bookings, commission, refunds and adjustments.
Operators upload DOT accreditation, LGU permits, boat registrations and insurance certificates, with expiry dates the platform tracks and prompts. Reviews attach only to completed trips. Travel agents and resellers get their own logins with net rates, so a Manila agency can book your operators at trade pricing and keep the mark-up, which is where a lot of a travel platform's early volume comes from.

Business ₱199,000 covers traveller booking, the operator console, capacity calendars, vouchers, payments and admin on a 15-day target. Downpayment-and-balance billing, offline QR check-in, multi-currency display and agent net-rate accounts are scoped on top and quoted before work starts. 50% down, the balance in milestones, free hosting for year one then from ₱499/month.
₱199,000 on the Business package buys traveller booking, the operator console, capacity calendars, QR vouchers, payments and admin. What moves the number after that is how you sell departures: split downpayment-and-balance billing, offline check-in scanning for guides working without signal, foreign-currency display for inbound guests, and net-rate logins for travel agents. Those are scoped against your departure count and season structure, and the complete figure is agreed before any work begins.
Capacity is held per departure the moment checkout starts and released if payment fails, so two families cannot buy the last three seats at once. Operators taking walk-in or phone bookings update the same calendar, and minimum-pax rules auto-cancel an under-filled joiner tour on a set day rather than the morning of. One departure, one honest seat count.
After the departure date has passed and no dispute is open — this is the single most important rule in a travel platform. Paying at booking means chasing an operator for a refund when a typhoon cancels a trip that never ran. Payouts run to GCash or bank on your schedule, with a ledger per operator showing bookings, commission, refunds and adjustments.
Yes, and most Philippine operators prefer it. Take 30-50% to confirm the seat, with the balance due a set number of days before departure. Reminders go out automatically and an unpaid balance releases the seat back to inventory at your cut-off, so a half-paid booking does not quietly block a paying guest. Both payments show on one booking record.
As a separate policy from voluntary cancellation. Guest-initiated cancellations follow tiered refunds by days before departure. Weather and force-majeure cancellations usually offer a rebooking credit valid for a stated period rather than cash, which keeps operators solvent through typhoon season. Operator-initiated cancellations refund the guest automatically and log against that operator's reliability record.
Prices can display in USD, EUR, AUD or another currency at a rate you control, while the transaction settles in pesos. International cards and PayPal are supported alongside GCash and Maya. Vouchers, itineraries and reminders send in the guest's language where you provide the translations, and pickup times display with the timezone spelled out to avoid the classic 6am mix-up.
Travellers book on mobile web and rarely install an app for a one-off trip, so start there. The app matters on the operator side: guides need offline check-in scanning and the day's manifest on a boat with no signal. Pro at ₱149,000 includes a branded Android app, which is usually the right place to put that budget first.
