Answers to Common Questions
These answers are written to help agencies, IATA partners, and consolidators understand the TourismCore model clearly before moving to a live discussion.
General Questions
TourismCore is an airline distribution platform designed for travel agencies, IATA agencies, and consolidators. It is built to support B2C and B2B airline distribution operations with a structured commercial and operational foundation.
TourismCore should be positioned as an airline distribution platform rather than a generic SaaS tool. The focus is on business infrastructure, distribution capability, commercial control, and long-term scalability.
TourismCore is built for travel agencies, IATA agencies, and consolidators that want stronger control over airline distribution operations, customer sales channels, agency distribution channels, and commercial workflows.
The platform positioning is centered on airline distribution. The main message should stay focused on airline distribution capability rather than broad generic travel software language.
Plans & Platform Model
TourismCore is structured around three core platform models: AirStart, AirAgency, and AirEnterprise. Each one is designed for a different level of control, distribution complexity, and business scale.
AirStart is the entry-level model built around a shared API setup and a B2C-focused structure. It is suitable for agencies entering airline distribution with a lighter initial setup.
AirAgency is designed for agencies that want their own API setup and need support for both B2C and B2B distribution. It offers a stronger business foundation for growing distribution operations.
AirEnterprise is the ownership-focused model for larger organizations that require deeper control, self-hosted possibilities, advanced customization, and enterprise-level distribution capability.
Pricing & Commercial Questions
TourismCore pricing is structured around four main parts: setup fee, annual fee, integrations, and modules. This creates a clear commercial model aligned with platform scope and business requirements.
No. TourismCore should not be presented with a transaction fee model. The positioning is based on platform setup, annual commercial structure, integrations, and optional modules rather than revenue sharing on bookings.
Pricing should be shown in USD only. That keeps the commercial presentation consistent and aligned with the website positioning.
Integrations should be treated separately. The exact cost depends on the provider, technical scope, connection method, and implementation complexity.
Modules are optional and should be positioned as separate functional layers added based on business needs, operational complexity, and growth stage.
Implementation & Growth Questions
Yes. One of the strengths of the TourismCore model is that businesses can begin with the most suitable platform layer and then add integrations, modules, and additional capability as operations grow.
Modules allow businesses to expand operational capability without changing the core platform foundation. They help add commercial control, agency distribution features, reporting, workflow support, and custom business logic over time.
The best path is to request a demo. TourismCore can then recommend a plan and module combination based on business model, API requirements, B2C/B2B needs, and operational complexity.
The main next step is to request a demo through /demo/request. That allows the conversation to move from general website information into business-specific recommendation and scope discussion.
