For Industry Members

You don't implement OCTO. You benefit from it.

Whether you're an operator, DMO, agency, or service provider — your tech partners handle the integration. You get faster onboarding, broader distribution, and fewer connectivity headaches.

Who joins as an Industry Member?

Any business that benefits from open connectivity — without building the integration itself.

Membership matters

You don't have to implement the spec to have a stake in its success. Here is why industry members join OCTO.

Fund the standard's growth

Your membership funds the work that grows OCTO adoption. More adoption means more connected partners and a stronger network for your business.

Early access to new capabilities

Review upcoming spec capabilities through member review before they go public. Stay ahead of changes that affect your connectivity.

Member updates & quarterly briefings

Stay informed with roadmap highlights, quarterly briefings, and member-only news about the standard's direction.

Website recognition (opt-in)

Your logo and description on the OCTO website. Visibility to partners and prospects across the network.

Which tier is right for you?

Most industry businesses go with the Industry Member tier. Build your own integration? Technology Member is the right fit.

Frequently asked questions

No. If your technology platforms support OCTO, you benefit automatically — faster partner connections, less integration friction. Membership gives you a voice in how the standard evolves, directory access, governance voting, and priority support. It also funds the adoption work that brings more tech partners on board.

If your reservation system has implemented the OCTO standard, then yes, the technical integration is handled for you. You can check our member directory to see which technology partners currently support OCTO. Even if your tech is covered, joining as an Industry Member ensures you stay informed, have a vote, and support broader adoption.

If your engineering team builds and maintains your own OCTO API integration rather than relying on a third-party platform, you should join as a Technology Member instead of an Industry Member. This gives you access to implementation support, spec committee participation, certification tools, and technical working groups. Learn more about Technology Membership.

Starts at $199/year. Includes member directory access, governance voting, community updates, priority support, and event access. You can also shape the standard's future through the Advisory Board and working groups.
