Access Surf OTAs with Ease: Explore Bookinglayer Connect Partners

Increasing your visibility online can help you sell out your surf trips faster. In tandem with accepting direct bookings, you can utilize popular surf travel platforms to broaden the reach of your business. Unfortunately, partnerships with these sites can be time consuming, often requiring multiple emails or calls to confirm a single booking. 

Two years ago, we decided to tackle this problem. We introduced Bookinglayer Connect—a solution designed to streamline these interactions. Bookinglayer Connect helps businesses partner with select surf travel platforms without adding any extra administrative work. Using Bookinglayer Connect, our clients can add their surf trips to popular surf travel platforms in just a few clicks. 

Last month, we added our seventh surf travel partner to Bookinglayer Connect. So, we are taking the opportunity to detail all of our surf travel partnerships and how they can help you boost your bookings. These select platforms seamlessly integrate with our services, ensuring an effortless connection of your offerings to a global audience.        

LUEX

LUEX features both surf and snow trips around the world. Operating since 2007, the site has cemented itself as a go-to resource for surf travel within its global audience. LUEX goes the extra mile by providing key insights to bookers — from wave breakdowns to packing tips to safety precautions — for every trip they promote. This gives your guests all of the details they need. In return, the platform charges a 15% commission on bookings.
