Built for operators
Connect your channels once and the messages customers send you on WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger turn into ready-to-confirm bookings by themselves. No copy-paste, no typing, nothing for your guests to install — you just tap confirm. Only messages that mention a booking are ever read; never your private chats.
Unlike Rezdy or FareHarbor, we never take a cut of your bookings. One flat monthly price, every sale is yours.
Automatic SMS and WhatsApp reminders before each trip cut no-shows without you lifting a finger.

Most booking platforms take a per-booking fee or a commission on sales you sourced yourself. Retveno is a flat monthly subscription with 0% commission — bring the customers over your own channels and keep every euro. On 40 bookings a month at €60 average, a 6% fee is over €1,700 a year you simply stop paying.
TrekkSoft grew up around European operators who need a booking desk and channel management together — destination-level businesses with counters and agents. Smaller operators moving away are usually paying for both halves and using neither: no desk, no agents, just a phone with a full inbox.
A monthly subscription with per-booking fees on top gives you a fixed cost you can plan and a variable cost you cannot. The variable half is the one that grows with a good season, which is the season you least want to be sharing.
Send a Stripe checkout link in one click to collect a deposit, and let automatic WhatsApp and SMS reminders cut no-shows before each trip. Set departures with capacity so a full group never gets double-booked. Set up in an afternoon — no developer required.
Only if agents or OTAs are actually filling your trips. If your bookings arrive as messages from people who already found you, a channel manager is infrastructure with nothing plugged into it — and it is usually the more expensive half of the bill.
