How to Get Started

Become a Virgin Experience Gifts Experience Partner

Install the Integration in Xola

  • Go to the App Store in Xola.
  • Locate the Virgin Experience Gifts app and click Install.

Configure Your Experiences

  • Click Visit Settings Page or go to  Settings > Apps > Virgin Experience Gifts > Configure.
  • Select the experiences you want Virgin Experience Gifts to access. This gives Virgin Experience Gifts permission to view the selected experiences' availability.

Complete the Mapping

  • Once enabled, Virgin Experience Gifts will contact Xola's integrations team to finalize the mapping between your products and their system.

How it Works

Once connected, here’s what you can expect:

  • Live Availability Sync
    When a time slot is reserved on Xola or VEG, both platforms update instantly to avoid overbooking.
  • Reservations Flow Into Xola
    VEG reservations appear in your Purchases tab just like direct reservations.
  • Gift Redemption Simplified
    VEG customers book using a gift code provided by Virgin. These codes are processed and validated directly through the integration—no manual entry required.
  • Standard Confirmation & Reminders
    Customers receive your usual Xola confirmation emails and pre-arrival reminders, just like a standard reservation.
  • Reporting All in One Place
    VEG reservations show up in Xola reporting, making it easy to track performance by channel.

Tips for Success

  • Keep Experience Details in Sync
    VEG pulls experience information from your Xola experiences. Make sure your descriptions, pricing, and scheduling in Xola are always up to date.
  • Include Detailed Redemption Instructions
    Work with the VEG team to ensure customers clearly understand how to redeem their gift and book a date.
  • Monitor Redemption Activity
    Track gift redemptions through your Xola Purchases tab. Use tags to help identify VEG customers for personalized service or follow-up.
  • Set Clear Cancellation Policies
    Make sure your refund and reschedule policies are clearly defined in both platforms to avoid confusion.
