    Frequently asked questions

    Common questions about tourism software and tools

    What is this list?
    Software and digital tools we have seen work for tourism businesses, grouped by what they do: bookings, channel management, CRM, marketing, websites, payments, accounting and operations. Each has its own page with what it suits, pricing and how it fits with Launchpad.
    How do I know which tool is right for my tourism business?
    Start with the job you need done and your business stage. A one-person tour operator and a multi-property accommodation group need different tools. A free consultation looks at what you have, what you pay and what you are missing.
    Do these tools work with Launchpad?
    Many connect directly, and Launchpad's CRM, marketing and booking tools replace several of them for smaller operators. Each tool's page says how it fits.
    Are these recommendations independent?
    Some links are affiliate links and say so on the tool's page. That never changes what we list or what we say about a tool; we include tools because operators we work with get value from them.
    How are the tools priced?
    Most are subscriptions, some charge per booking, and a few are free at a basic tier. Each page shows the pricing model and starting price where the vendor publishes one.
