Hello everyone!

My name is Luca and I work as a freelancer in the field of digital solutions for campsites. Today I would like to discuss with you a topic that is very close to my heart: the integration of a property management system (PMS) with a Wix site.

I have noticed that on sites like [https://www.campinglapierreverte.com/] when you click on “Reserver” there is a fantastic search bar for availability, which allows customers to enter check-in and check-out dates, the number of guests, and other relevant information to check the availability of camping spaces. I would like to create something similar.

Here are some questions for you, and I hope you can help me:

Is it possible to integrate a third-party PMS with a Wix site? Are there specific PMS providers that you would recommend or with which Wix already has partnerships?

What are the technical requirements for such an integration? Are there specific APIs or plugins on Wix that could facilitate this process?

Can Wix support real-time updates from the PMS for availability and booking confirmation?

Do you have examples of similar integrations done with Wix that I can refer to?

Finally, could you give me an idea of the estimated time and costs for such an operation?

I believe that implementing this feature could greatly improve the online booking experience for campsite customers and simplify the booking management process for operators.

Thank you very much for your time and assistance. I look forward to reading your responses and any additional information you can provide.

Best regards

Hi Luca

Sounds like an interesting project. This is definately possible in Wix, but you’ll need some coding experience.

The most important point is, that the PMS has to have an API which you can access. Then using Wix Fetch you could send the Values of the Input elements to that API, which then returns an answer (i.e. Available / Not Available, etc.)

Wix can support real-time updates from the PMS, but that depends heavily on the programming and integration of your PMS API.

Hope that helps :slight_smile:

Wix doesn’t have built-in plugins for most PMS platforms, so custom coding is usually required. You’d also want to make sure the PMS supports real-time updates to keep everything accurate for users. As for time and costs, it depends on the complexity of the API and the level of customization you want, but hiring a developer could make things smoother.For managing properties in general, working with platforms like valleymanagementgroupinc.com can simplify a lot of the admin tasks and help free up time for projects like this.
