How to make a website for a ticket booking agent

Plenty of people still prefer to book through a nearby agent: elders who don't use apps, families booking for a wedding group, workers going home for festivals. They want to know what you book, what you charge on top of the fare and when your counter is open. A small website tells them and sends them to your WhatsApp.

What people look for on a ticket booking agent website

• What you book: train, bus, flight and event or concert tickets, and group bookings
• Your service charge per ticket or per booking, separate from the fare
• The details to send for a booking: names, ages, ID details, travel dates and class
• Counter hours, including early-morning hours on busy booking days if you keep them
• Help with cancellations, date changes and refunds as the operator allows
• Whether you are an authorised agent for any operator, with the number if you have one
• Directions to the counter and a WhatsApp button

The pages your website needs

• Home: What you book, your counter's area and hours, the service charge in one line and a WhatsApp button
• What we book: Train, bus, flight and event tickets, group bookings for weddings and tours, and what you can't book
• How to book with us: Details to send on WhatsApp, how you confirm the fare before booking, how payment works at the counter or by UPI, and how the ticket is sent
• Cancellations and changes: How you help with cancellations and changes, that refunds follow the operator's rules, and your charge for this
• Contact: Counter address with landmark, hours, phone, WhatsApp and a Google Maps button

Sample words for your home page

Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.

How to make it with AppCub, step by step

1. Decide the pages. Most ticket booking agent websites need these pages: Home, What we book, How to book with us, Cancellations and changes, Contact.
2. Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
3. Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
4. Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
5. Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.

Copy this request, change the details to match your ticket booking agent, and paste it into AppCub:

Tips for a ticket booking agent website

• Show your service charge separately from the fare; people compare it with booking themselves.
• Never promise confirmed seats or waitlist clearing; availability is the operator's decision.
• If you are an authorised agent for an operator, show the number if you have one, and follow that operator's rules on how agents advertise.
• Write the details you need as a short list people can copy into WhatsApp.
• Say how you delete passengers' ID details after the booking, so people feel easier sharing them.
• Put your counter on Google Maps with a free Google Business Profile; many customers come on foot from nearby.

What it costs

• Describing your website and seeing AppCub’s plan for it is free.
• Making it and changing it in chat uses credits for the work done: start with the 2-day trial for ₹99 (150 credits) or the one-time App Pack for ₹499 (200 credits, no autopay). Starter is ₹1,599 a month for 700 credits.

Good to know

• The website can't show seat availability, take payments or issue tickets; AppCub doesn't connect to railway, airline, bus or event booking systems. Customers message or visit you, and you book on the operator's system as usual.
• The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
• A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
• Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.

Questions

Can customers check train availability on my website?

No. AppCub doesn't connect to railway, airline or event booking systems. Customers send their dates on WhatsApp and you check availability for them.

Should I show my service charge on the website?

Yes, as a separate line from the fare. It helps customers decide before they message.

Can I promise confirmed tickets in the busy season?

No. Seats and waitlists are the operator's decision. Say you will tell the customer what is available before you book.

How do customers pay a ticket agent who has a website?

The website has no payments. Customers pay at the counter or by UPI after you confirm the fare on WhatsApp.

Can I list wedding group bookings on the site?

Yes. Describe group bookings on the what we book page and the details you need from the family.

Will people near my counter find me on Google?

The pages are made so Google can read them, with your counter's address and hours in a standard format. Where they appear is Google's decision.
