FunAndSun Hotel API Integration via Vervotech
Production-grade coverage
99.998% mapping accuracy
One REST endpoint
FunAndSun is a B2B bedbank and hotel wholesaler headquartered in United Arab Emirates. It contracts directly with hotels and resells inventory through XML and REST APIs to OTAs, tour operators, and travel agencies. Vervotech maps the FunAndSun catalog to canonical hotel IDs so every property a customer pulls from FunAndSun aligns 1:1 with the same property served by peer bedbanks and direct suppliers.

What Vervotech does for FunAndSun
- Canonical hotel IDs. Each FunAndSun property resolves to a single Vervotech hotel ID shared with every other connected supplier.
- Room-level mapping. Identical room types from FunAndSun collapse with peer suppliers' equivalents into a canonical room ID, so you can shop rates without duplicate inventory.
- Continuous refresh. Static and dynamic FunAndSun content is pulled on a recurring cycle, so newly contracted properties enter the mapped catalog without engineering work.
- One REST endpoint. Call FunAndSun content through the same Vervotech endpoint that serves the rest of your supplier mix.
- Bedbank deduplication. Where FunAndSun overlaps with peer bedbanks on the same property, Vervotech keeps a single canonical record and exposes both rate options under one listing.
How the FunAndSun integration works
- Ingest. Vervotech pulls the FunAndSun hotel content feed on a continuous refresh cycle. Both static (hotel attributes) and structural (room and board types) data are captured.
- Normalize. FunAndSun's schema is mapped to a canonical Vervotech model. Currency, language, geocoding, and amenity vocabularies are standardized.
- Resolve. Every FunAndSun property is matched to a canonical Vervotech hotel ID using deterministic rules (address, geocode, name) and ML scoring trained on 3M+ properties.
- Deduplicate rooms. Equivalent room types from FunAndSun are collapsed with peer supplier rooms into a canonical room ID.
- Expose. FunAndSun content is reachable through one Vervotech REST endpoint, mixed with the rest of your supplier inventory.
Example FunAndSun response via Vervotech
Vervotech returns FunAndSun properties enriched with canonical IDs that match the same property as served by peer suppliers.

Typical FunAndSun use cases
- OTAs and metasearch: blend FunAndSun rates with peer suppliers behind a single property listing, with no duplicates and no schema drift.
- Travel agencies and TMCs: route bookings to FunAndSun when its rate wins, fall back to alternates when it does not, all under one mapped catalog.

Frequently asked questions
What is FunAndSun?
- FunAndSun is a bedbank or wholesaler based in United Arab Emirates that distributes hotel inventory. Vervotech maps the FunAndSun catalog to canonical hotel IDs so it can be queried through the same API as 152+ other suppliers.
How does Vervotech integrate FunAndSun?
- Vervotech ingests the FunAndSun feed on a continuous refresh cycle, normalizes its schema (hotel attributes, room types, geographic data) to a canonical model, and resolves every property to a Vervotech hotel ID. Customers call one REST endpoint and receive FunAndSun content alongside every other connected supplier.
What FunAndSun data is mapped?
- Static content (hotel names, addresses, geocodes, amenities, images, descriptions) and structural data (room types, board types, occupancy rules) are mapped to canonical Vervotech IDs. Dynamic data (rates, availability) is passed through with canonical ID enrichment so customers can rate-shop FunAndSun against peers.
Can I rate-shop FunAndSun against other suppliers?
- Yes. Because FunAndSun properties share canonical hotel and room IDs with the rest of the Vervotech network, rates from FunAndSun are directly comparable with peer suppliers under the same property listing. Profit Maximizer can also automatically rebook to a better source after the original booking if the price drops.
What is the FunAndSun coverage tier on Vervotech?
- FunAndSun is currently in the production-grade tier on Vervotech's mapping pipeline. Coverage is monitored continuously and re-computed as FunAndSun publishes new inventory or schema changes.
How long does it take to go live with FunAndSun through Vervotech?
- Customers with a Vervotech account can start querying FunAndSun content immediately, no separate FunAndSun integration project required. The 7-day free trial gives access to FunAndSun content alongside the rest of the supplier network from day one.
What does FunAndSun integration cost?
- Vervotech Hotel Mapping starts at $499 a month and includes the full supplier network. Bundle packages discount up to 50% when you connect multiple suppliers. There are no per-supplier integration fees on top of the subscription.
