Xola

What it does

Xola is booking and marketing software for tours and attractions. The pricing page says Xola does not charge a subscription. It assesses a partner fee on each purchase and says there is no added OTA fee of the kind it is contrasting. The same page shows card processing at 2.39% plus $0.30 in the example given, and it says rates vary outside that example. This profile does not treat the card rate as if it were the partner fee. The product includes checkout, waivers, ticketing and a customer CRM.

Who it suits

Operators who prefer a per-purchase fee to a monthly subscription and will ask what the partner fee is in dollars.

Integration and setup

Ask for the partner fee as a percentage or flat amount, separate from the card rate. Confirm whether an OTA booking adds another Xola fee.

What to check before buying

• Write down the partner fee and the card rate as two numbers.
• See a waiver attached to a ticket.
• Ask how refunds treat the partner fee.

Limitations and considerations

• The partner fee amount is described as small but not printed as a single percentage in the text reviewed.
• Card rates and the partner fee are different lines.
