Connectivity for travel agencies & OTAs

Turn a booking into a connected trip.

Travel agencies and online travel platforms — like our partner Wego — add eSIM connectivity and ancillary products alongside flight and hotel bookings.

Connectivity is one of the few travel ancillaries that applies to almost every itinerary a travel agency or OTA sells — unlike a specific insurance product or a destination-specific tour, a traveler needs data in whichever of 180+ countries they're flying to, which makes it a near-universal attach-rate opportunity rather than a niche upsell.

Adding it doesn't mean building carrier relationships or a billing system from scratch — an API or hosted widget attaches to an existing booking or checkout flow, with plan destination matched automatically to the traveler's itinerary rather than requiring a manual selection step. Ancillaries like lounge access, fast-track, and meet & greet sit in the same catalog, so a single integration adds several attach-rate opportunities rather than just one. Wallet-based billing means an OTA is only charged wholesale for what travelers actually activate, with markup captured automatically rather than reconciled manually, and dashboard reporting by route and agent shows exactly where the attach rate is strongest. Zetexa's partner Wego uses this same pattern to add connectivity directly into its existing flights-and-hotels booking flow.

Can this be added to our existing booking checkout?

Yes — via API or a hosted widget, connectivity and ancillary products can be attached as an upsell step in your existing flight or hotel checkout flow.

Is this what Wego built?

Wego is a real Zetexa partner, and this page describes the same integration — connectivity and ancillaries attached directly to its existing flights-and-hotels booking flow. See the Wego case study for the full partnership details.

What ancillary products can we bundle alongside eSIM?

Lounge access, fast-track security/immigration, and meet & greet airport assistance can all be bundled alongside eSIM in the same checkout flow.

How do we get paid or track margin on this?

You see attach rate and revenue by route, destination, and agent from your dashboard, and billing is wallet-based — you're only charged wholesale for what travelers actually activate, with your markup captured automatically.

Does coverage match the destinations we actually sell?

In almost all cases, yes — with 180+ countries covered, the connectivity upsell applies to nearly every itinerary you sell, and plan destination is matched automatically to the traveler's route.
