WhatsApp for travel agencies

From first quote to welcome home, all on WhatsApp

Recoverly is WhatsApp for travel agencies, tour operators and visa consultants: quote follow-ups that keep custom itineraries from going cold, booking confirmations, pre-trip reminders for documents and pickups, and itinerary updates travelers see on hotel Wi-Fi, not days later in email. It runs from your agency's number, in 8 languages.

The problem

Where travel bookings slip

Travelers shop around before they book, and most of the risk comes after they do. Both ends run on follow-up.

Quotes that vanish into inboxes

You spend an hour on a custom itinerary, email the quote and hear nothing. The couple booked with whoever followed up first.

Travelers missing documents

An expired passport or a missing visa turns departure day into an emergency for your team and a refund conversation nobody wants.

Changes that arrive too late

A flight is rescheduled or a tour is canceled for weather. Your email sits unread until the traveler is already home.

Automations

WhatsApp for travel agencies: six flows from quote to review

Ready-made flows with templates and timing. Connect your booking system or CRM through Zapier or a webhook, adjust, publish.

Quote follow-up

A WhatsApp copy of each quote with a View quote button, a nudge at 24 hours if they're silent, and a price-hold reminder at 72 hours. It stops the moment they reply.

Booking confirmations

The moment a booking is confirmed, travelers get the reference, dates, inclusions and balance due date, in their language. It's the message they'll search for at the check-in desk.

How it works →

Pre-trip reminders

48 hours before departure, a passport, visa and insurance checklist with a Documents ready button. 12 hours before, pickup time, meeting point and the driver's number.

Itinerary updates

When a flight time changes or a tour moves, your booking system or a Zap sends the change and the traveler has it in seconds, with a button to reach an agent.

Welcome home, review and referral

When your booking system marks the trip finished, wait 48 hours, then ask how it went, with a link to your Google or Tripadvisor page and a referral code to share.

How it works →

Seasonal deal broadcasts

Early-bird summer packages, long weekends, last-minute cabins. Send to opted-in travelers on your schedule.

The booking confirmation and pre-trip timeline travelers read

Travelers skim emails; they read WhatsApp. This timeline puts every detail in one thread they can scroll back through at the gate, with replies going to your agents. Build it once per trip type with WhatsApp automation; quiet hours follow the traveler's time zone.

  • Booking confirmed. Reference, dates, inclusions and balance due date.
  • Balance due. A payment-link reminder, triggered by your booking system.
  • 48 hours before departure. Documents checklist. No tap on Documents ready? An agent calls.
  • 12 hours before. Pickup time, meeting point, driver's name and number.
  • Back home. Welcome back, review link and referral code.

FAQ

WhatsApp for travel & tourism, asked and answered

Across the whole trip: quote follow-ups, booking confirmations, balance reminders, document checks, pickup details, itinerary changes and a review ask once travelers are home. Recoverly automates each step from your booking system and keeps every conversation in one shared inbox.
Yes. A booking confirmation is a utility message: once Meta approves your template, usually within minutes, Recoverly sends it the moment a booking is confirmed in your system, with the reference, dates and inclusions filled in. See how WhatsApp automation triggers work.
Yes. Templates come in 8 languages, from Spanish and French to Arabic and Brazilian Portuguese, and the AI assistant replies in whatever language the guest writes in. WhatsApp also works over Wi-Fi, so guests abroad still get pickup times and changes.
Only travelers who said yes to marketing, through a checkbox on your inquiry or booking form or the chat widget on your website. Broadcasts use Meta-approved marketing templates, and a STOP reply takes a traveler off the list for good. See campaigns.
Yes. Coexistence mode links the number you already use without taking it off the WhatsApp Business app. The same chats appear in the shared inbox, where any agent can pick up a thread and the AI assistant covers common questions after hours.
$19/month (Lite) covers every automation, the AI assistant and one shared inbox; seasonal broadcasts are included. $49/month (Pro) adds integrations such as Zapier and priority support. There's no per-agent pricing and no message cap, and Meta bills its fees at cost (rates by country). Get started with early access to the web app.

Follow up on every quote. Brief every traveler.
