Your questions answered
Transparency is at the heart of eola. If you don’t see your question here, get in touch with our team.
Where will my activities appear?
On the eola marketplace, where people search by place, date or activity, and on Google Things to Do. New listings can take a little while to show up on Google.
Do I set anything up separately for the marketplace?
No. It uses the photos, descriptions, prices and times already in your eola account, so a change you make there shows on your listing too.
Do marketplace bookings mean extra admin?
No. They land in your eola calendar like any other booking, with the same forms, reminders and check-in, and are marked as marketplace bookings in your reports.
How does eola promote my listings?
eola works on how activities rank on Google, builds spotlight pages, runs ad campaigns and emails customers about things to do near them.
Do marketplace customers sign my waivers?
Yes. They book under your policies and get the same disclaimers, questions and reminders as everyone else.
How do I see what the marketplace has done for me?
Owners can open Reports, then Impact, for a look back over the last twelve months, including the new customers the marketplace found.
