Seamlessly connect Widgety and WordPress

“Any time we wanted to update a page on our old website, we’d need our developers to do it for us, which was a slow and frustrating process. We were also limited by an integration that only pulled through top-level cruise itinerary information. In 10 weeks, BANC designed and built a new website integrated with Pontoon™. Now, we can pull through full Widgety data for nearly 60,000 cruise itineraries, which our agents can edit with unique info and exclusive deals themselves.”

“One of the biggest issues of our old site was that customers had to book and pay through a third party, which affected things from both a journey and brand perspective. With Pontoon™’s features, we were able to sync Widgety itineraries with our Resco booking system, something that’s made our booking and payment processes far smoother than they used to be. Our customers in different time zones can now book their next Hebridean adventure without the need for our sales team to manually assist them.”

“WordPress is widely used by many of our customers, and Pontoon™ offers them the option to essentially plug-and-play into an existing website, or get help to add it in. We have seen the flexibility from their team and I trust that they can quickly get a new agency onboarded. I am looking forward to future developments with booking, touring and further customisation. It’s crucial to us that the hold up between an agency getting up-to-date, accurate cruise content is as short as possible and the Pontoon™ solution works.”
