“If you have a TXA connected booking system”

You will need the following information about your business:

1. Business information; requires basic information about your business such as contact person, email address and contact numbers.

2. Activating your website; if you want to use TXA to power bookings on your own website to place a book button requires either your FTB [file transfer protocol] details for your website or your web developer’s contact details so our tech can liaise with them to get the book now button loaded to your website. You can use TXA or your own system for your own website, it is your choice.

3. Description, Booking Terms and Conditions of Use; this information is required for your TXA booking pages as they appear when customers click through book buttons on listings on the various TXA distributors;
