How long does it usually take to get my white label portal up and running after I sign up?

Yes, a white label portal is normally live a good deal faster than a website built from scratch, because the booking engine, the search screens and the supplier connections already exist and are simply configured for your brand.

Most of the work on our side is setup rather than development. We create your portal, apply your logo, colours and agency details, point it at your domain and switch on the supplier connections you have chosen. If you come to us with your branding files ready, your domain details in hand and a clear idea of which suppliers you want to use, that stage moves along quickly and you can usually be looking at a working portal in test mode soon after you sign up.

What really sets the timeline is the part that is not in our hands. If you are using your own supplier contracts, you have to wait for each supplier to issue your credentials and clear you for live traffic, and some of them take their time over it. Payment gateways also run their own checks on your business before they allow live payments. Your plan matters as well, since a portal with several supplier connections, more than one currency or more than one brand has more to configure and test than a single straightforward site.

The most useful thing you can do is get the paperwork moving before the build starts, so ask us for the list of branding files, domain details and supplier information we need, and begin your supplier and payment gateway applications at the same time instead of waiting until the portal is otherwise finished.
