Hotel-X development
At TravelgateX we like to break projects into smaller tasks, as the saying goes: "one step at a time". That's why we split the Hotel-X development into 3 phases:
1. The Content Phase
This is the phase that will take you the longest due to the work and logic required in order to obtain the information (query acquaintance) and the treatment of it (mapping logic).
On average, Buyers developing Hotel-X spend approximately 12 days in this phase.
2. The shopping phase: Booking flow
Composed of two queries:
- Search
- Quote
And one mutation:
- Book
The shopping phase takes, on average, 8 days to our Buyers.
3. The Reservation management phase
Composed of one query and one mutation:
- Booking
- Cancellation
Our booking management methods take, on average, 5 days to our Buyers.
Adding up the three phases, it takes an average of 25 days to complete the development. Obviously, the total time will depend on the amount of resources allocated to the project. We've had clients who developed in 7 days, others in 2 weeks and some take months.

Hotel-X certification
Certifying your development consists of performing 4 cases and providing the logs of each of the queries and mutations through a certification ticket (more information here).
On average, Buyers spend 3 days approximately to certify.
Seller activation
Thanks to our automatic activation process, connecting a new Seller takes on average 7 days.
Live
Once the Buyer receives the activation data, the ball is on their court for the mapping process and internal testings prior going live. These have a noticeable impact on the total onboarding time, taking on average 7 days to be completed.
Adding up all the milestones timings, it takes on average a total of 37 days to fully develop Hotel-X and go live with the first Seller.
