Tiqets API integration for museum and attraction tickets

Connect your Tiqets account to PHPTRAVELS and sell museum, attraction and experience tickets next to your own tours: live dates and time slots, adult and child ticket types, an availability check before payment, the order, the e-ticket and the voucher.

  • Live dates and time slots
  • Adult, child and other ticket types
  • Your markup on every ticket
  • Sold in the tours module

How it works

A ready Tiqets connector in the tours module

Tiqets is a ticketing platform for museums, attractions and experiences that distributes tickets to travel companies through an API. PHPTRAVELS lists Tiqets as a ready supplier in the tours category: it calls the Tiqets API with your own distributor credentials and runs product search, time-slot availability, ordering and ticket delivery in the same booking workflow as your own tours and other activity suppliers. A public setup guide is not linked for this connector yet, so ask our team for the configuration steps when you are ready.

  1. Apply to Tiqets as a distributor and receive your API key
  2. Enable the Tiqets module in the admin and add the API key
  3. Choose cities and attractions, and set your ticket markups
  4. Test search, availability, order and ticket delivery in the sandbox
  5. Switch to live and Tiqets tickets appear in your tours search
