Selling the destination is a key success factor in selling products, so destinations can use TXGB to become a distributor. This will allow you to market all of the products within your destination and benefit from the analytical data and campaign tools that TXGB provides. However, this needs to be done in line with Package Travel Regulations (PTR), which is currently at your own risk.

But before any sales can take place, we need to ensure the product is available on the platform. We’ll be working closely with suppliers to get their products registered, so please encourage your local businesses to get involved. Details on the benefits to suppliers are listed in the ‘suppliers’ section of the website.

At present DMOs and DEF projects who connect to TXGB as a distributor selling multiple products will need to ensure they’re PTR compliant and have the appropriate bond and legal cover in place.

No. You don’t need to, but you can if you want, to help support your marketing activity. Alternatively you may want to use TXGB as a method for showcasing bookable product in your destination with no commission taken.

If you’re PTR compliant, you’ll be able to run campaigns through TXGB. For example, for your destination, you could group all garden products together and apply a price discount, or just use as promotional grouping. Similarly, if you were promoting a touring route, TXGB allows you to pull together all product within a set distance of that route for example, two miles either side of a certain plotted path. There are lots of exciting possibilities to really bring your destination to life.
