TuristHub SaaS - Accommodation Marketplace, Agent Portal and Direct Booking Platform

TuristHub SaaS is a complete PHP web platform for launching an accommodation marketplace with direct bookings, property owners, agencies, subscription plans, room availability, online payments and customer accounts. It is built for entrepreneurs, travel businesses, agencies and developers who want to create a branded booking platform for hotels, villas, guesthouses, apartments, resorts and private stays.

Built for multi-property accommodation platforms

TuristHub SaaS is more than a single hotel website. It includes a platform admin area, an agent portal, tourist accounts and a public accommodation catalog. The platform owner manages subscriptions, agents, payment settings, SEO, homepage content, translations and updates, while each agent can manage properties, rooms, prices, availability and bookings.

For Platform Owners

Use TuristHub SaaS to create your own accommodation booking platform. You can sell listing access to agents, manage subscription plans, approve properties, configure payment processors, control homepage content, generate SEO sitemaps and monitor bookings from the admin area.

For Agents and Property Owners

Agents get their own portal where they can add properties, manage rooms, define prices, update availability, receive bookings, view transactions and manage billing details according to the plan limits configured by the platform owner.

For Travelers

Travelers can search accommodations, compare room options, create an account, save favorites, make bookings, continue pending payments, change payment processor when allowed and download booking invoices.

Payments and Booking Policies

TuristHub SaaS supports practical booking payment flows: pay at property, bank transfer, Stripe checkout and PayPal checkout. Room categories can request full prepayment, a fixed/percentage advance payment or no online payment, depending on the accommodation policy.

Google Places Demo Content

The installer can start a Google Places demo import for a selected city, helping you prepare a realistic marketplace demo with accommodation listings. A cron script can refresh imported cities later.

SEO and Multilingual Ready

TuristHub SaaS includes clean URLs, dynamic metadata, editable SEO links, sitemap generation, multilingual labels, JSON translations and an admin translation editor. It is prepared for public accommodation platforms where search engine indexing and localized UI matter.

For Developers

The codebase is modular, PHP-based and template-driven. Routes are organized by application area, templates are separated from business logic, translations are stored in JSON files and the plugin foundation allows new functionality without rewriting the core.
