Selling abroad

Sell in their language. Charge in their currency.

Eleven languages, on your side of the screen and theirs — and prices that follow a bank feed rather than a number somebody typed in last year.

Guest content per language

Product editor with the language selector open, showing the same activity written in two languages.

Words you wrote, not something a computer guessed at.

Languages

  • Eleven, for staff and guests alike. English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Hindi, Arabic and Russian — across the booking page, the confirmation, the tickets, the emails and the system your team uses all day.
  • Real words, not machine translation. You write the wording for each language — activity names, ticket types, membership plans, emails — so a guest reads something written for them rather than something a computer guessed at.
  • Nothing is ever blank. If a translation is missing, it falls back to your own language rather than showing an empty space. Where we can fill one in for you automatically we do, and a failure to translate never stops you saving your work.
  • Your team and your guests can differ. A manager in Lyon works in French while a guest checks out in Japanese, on the same booking.

Currency

  • Rates arrive twice a day from a bank feed. Guests see prices in their own currency and you do nothing to make it happen.
  • Yesterday's bookings keep yesterday's rate. Today's rates never quietly rewrite what you already sold, so last month's figures still say what they said last month.
  • A bad day for the feed never stops you selling. If rates go stale, foreign currencies pause and your home-currency sales carry straight on. The worst case is that you sell in one currency for an afternoon.
  • A real move is not treated as an error. Currencies genuinely do move several percent in a day. We flag it rather than refusing the day's rates, because rejecting a valid rate would switch off foreign sales at exactly the moment the rate mattered.
  • Different currencies per site, page or till. Your ferry terminal and your city-centre box office do not have to present the same one.

And it all still adds up

  • Every penny is accounted for. Totals are split across tickets, taxes and fees in whole pennies, so the parts always sum to the whole and nothing disappears into rounding — even across a million transactions.
  • What you quoted and what settled are kept apart. Our rates decide what a guest is asked to pay; your payment processor remains the truth about what actually landed in your account. Mixing those two up is how a reconciliation report becomes impossible to explain.
