Plekify + WETU

Plekify for WETU

Your WETU content, fully bookable — in three steps.

WETU supplies the content. Plekify makes it bookable, on your own domain, for people and for AI agents.

One Pin ID, a store that updates itself

Give Plekify a WETU Pin ID. Get back a full storefront — rooms, activities, dining, 3D tours — built on Shopify.

Your team keeps working in WETU the way it always has. Content changes there. The storefront updates itself. No double capture, no stale pages.

  • Rooms, activities, dining and 3D tours pulled straight from your WETU content
  • Auto-updating: edit in WETU, the storefront follows
  • Suppliers maintain their own content; Plekify keeps it live

Connect your Pin ID


An itinerary that books itself

An itinerary UUID becomes a complete, bookable, agent-readable site. Every stop is a page. The journey itself is a Shopify product, priced and ready for checkout.

Two reference itineraries are live today:

Hoffmann Anniversary — 12 nights, 5 stops, R1.06m. Romantic, wine-route, Western Cape.

Osei Milestone — 10 nights, 4 stops, 3 chapters, R2.8m. Multi-region, big-five.

Each itinerary ships with four views, generated from the same source:

  • Traveller presentation
  • Pre-departure pack
  • Operator dossier
  • Operations brief

Every view links back to the WETU source itinerary. Nothing is duplicated by hand.

Four views, one WETU itinerary, nothing assembled by hand

Pick a journey. See what each person actually receives: the traveller's bookable presentation, their pre-departure pack, the operator dossier, the operations brief. Same UUID, four outcomes.

These are live pages on real itineraries, not mock-ups. Edit the WETU itinerary once and all four re-publish on demand.

Trade terms included

Your trade partners don't pay by card. Plekify doesn't make them.

  • Draft orders for agents and DMCs, built from the same itinerary product
  • Payment-terms templates — FIXED, RECEIPT, or NET — applied per account
  • Price override to the canonical total, no manual recalculation
  • Invoice URL issued per order, ready to send or file

This is B2B settlement on-account, the way TSC-consortium DMCs already work — just attached to a bookable page instead of a spreadsheet.

Agent-shoppable, human-readable

The same WETU content and itineraries are published for AI agents to shop directly — via MCP and UCP — and for people to browse normally. One build, two audiences.

  • Synchronised to a Shopify store on your own domain
  • Reachable by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI as structured, agent-readable pages
  • UCP: the open standard co-developed by Shopify and Google — your /.well-known/ucp manifest goes live, and you stay merchant of record
  • A full human-visible version ships alongside — nothing agent-only, nothing hidden

Check your UCP manifest


How the sync works

  • SOAP v8 is WETU's only write surface. Plekify writes through it; you never touch it directly.
  • REST is read-only. Plekify handles re-sync so your WETU account stays the source of truth.
  • Re-publish on demand, whenever the WETU source updates — no manual export, no rebuild.
  • Server-rendered HTML plus structured data, so pages are readable by search engines and AI agents alike, not just browsers.

Built by a SafariNow founder

Matthew Swart is building this

I built SafariNow from scratch, then spent years watching agents fall in love with a WETU itinerary and email back to ask "so how do I pay?" That gap between beautiful and bookable is the whole business.

Plekify exists because WETU-grade content deserves a checkout, not a PDF. Book 30 minutes — I'll look at your actual Pin, not a demo.

Evidence: SafariNow peaked at R141.8m in bookings a year.

Live sites built from real Pin syncs

These are working storefronts, not mock-ups. Each one started as a WETU Pin ID and now runs as a public Shopify site you can browse today.
