I tried logging in and registering at https://dev-gotrip.bookingcore.co/ after choosing a package, and it works perfectly. It doesn’t lose the session. But the bug is still there on Booking Core.
Is API integration available for this project?
If yes, could you please share the API documentation or integration details?
Hi, I’m planning a large-scale global marketplace. Can Booking Core handle this in one installation?
Please tell me the maximum number of:
Are limits determined by database constraints, server resources, or script architecture? Does the system use pagination and lazy loading for large datasets?
Have you tested with real-world data (e.g., 10,000+ hotels, 50,000+ tours, 100,000+ customers&vendors)? If yes, what were the results?
I NEED TO SCALE GLOBALLY WITHOUT REBUILDING LATER
Thank you.
Hi proshabo
Thank you for sharing your vision.
To be completely transparent, for a truly global-scale marketplace, the success of the project depends not only on the script itself, but also on the overall technical architecture, infrastructure, optimization strategy, and long-term development team.
BookingCore can provide a strong foundation for this type of platform, and some of our customers are indeed building large-scale projects with it. However, those projects usually involve long-term customization, optimization, and continuous technical support from experienced developers.
In practice, scaling globally is not simply about installing a script — it requires:
- Server and database optimization
- Performance tuning
- Custom workflow development
- Scalable infrastructure and maintenance
- Continuous monitoring and upgrades
So while BookingCore can absolutely be used as the core system, large projects typically require a dedicated technical team to maintain stability and scalability over time.
We prefer to be honest about this rather than promise unrealistic “unlimited scale” claims.
If you are planning a serious long-term marketplace project, we would be happy to discuss the best technical approach with you.
Thanks
Thanks for replying. Where can we discuss the technical approach?

Hello,
I’m planning to purchase Booking Core (Extended License) for a live project and need to properly evaluate the system before proceeding.
The demo admin link currently appears to be inaccessible on my end. Could you please provide the latest working demo URLs and login credentials for:
- Admin dashboard
- Vendor (service provider) account
- User/customer account
I’d like to fully review the platform from all perspectives, including tour management, booking flow, vendor features, and payment setup.
This will help me make a confident purchase decision.
Looking forward to your prompt response. Thank you.

almost 7 years ago Flag Also, would be good if you could take deposits / partial payments, and add services, padding times to set between bookings… Availability calendar, and choose booking by time available not just days, and set days / blocks when not open / closed… don’t know if its another bug, but on the search page the locations is a dropdown box, wouldn’t an input field with autocomplete be better? “
can you please respond to this 7-year old request?
on the search page the locations is a dropdown box, wouldn’t an input field with autocomplete be better?
Hi khaledms

Looks like your support Telegram is not working so I will leave this here.
Pre-purchase enquiry:
I run an interstate bus shuttle and I would like to buy this script.
However, I see there is no provision for bus module so I would like to know if you can provide one that is not open to vendors.
1. Features should include bus and route search with fees displayed alongside search results.
2. Seat booking for passengers to select their preferred seats.
3. One-way or Round Trip for passengers to choose their preference.
I will like to also have a means of contacting your team privately next time so we can discuss the fee for this project.
Thank you.
Hi Falipikin,
Thanks for your interest in our script, but we have no Bus module yet.

It has been 4 days and no reply on ticket #3865
Would it be possible to integrate flight comparison tools alongside accommodation listings from Booking.com? For example, a solution similar to Skyscanner for flights combined with Booking.com for hotel reservations.
Hi Niko_Bellic,
At the moment, BookingCore does not have a built-in feature for flight comparison like Skyscanner, nor direct integration with Booking.com listings.
However, it is possible to integrate flight APIs or third-party services through custom development, depending on the provider you choose. The same applies if you want to connect external accommodation sources.
Please note that building a system similar to Skyscanner + Booking.com combined would require significant customization and API integration from third-party providers.
If you have specific APIs in mind, feel free to share them — we can review and advise on the best approach.
Thanks
