Commerce Platform
How do SPOTLIO’s B2B and B2C Commerce solutions work?
SPOTLIO’s Commerce Platform is a powerful revenue-boosting solution that is fully compatible with Inntopia. Through Inntopia’s API, we gather information about your products and present it via frictionless booking pages that encourage your customers to complete their orders and build bigger packages. With an array of powerful features such as advanced caching technology that gives super fast search results, a single-page booking experience that allows customers to add multiple products across different product categories all from the same page. Book a free consultation with us today for a full overview of this powerful tool.
How does SPOTLIO’s Commerce Platform differ from other booking systems?
We are not a booking system but a booking platform that sits on top of Inntopia. That means you don’t need to set all the products again, we just take the information from Inntopia.
