The old way

Still sending payment links for every booking?

Client asks → WhatsApp reply → payment link → wait → follow up → confirm manually. It works — until links expire, payments get missed, and clients book elsewhere while waiting.

With ZanBooking, your clients don't ask for a link. They go to your booking page, choose their tour, and pay directly. Payment is the confirmation. You focus on running great tours — ZanBooking handles the selling.

What's not included in the setup price.

The TZS 500,000 setup fee covers installation, configuration, and connecting your Pesapal API keys. Uploading your tours, packages, photos, and descriptions is not included — but we can handle it for an additional fee if you'd like.

You'll also need your own server and domain. If you don't have these, we can set them up for you separately.

FAQ

Questions about ZanBooking.

Do I need a Pesapal account already?

Yes. ZanBooking connects to your existing Pesapal account using your API keys. If you don't have one yet, we can point you in the right direction before setup.

Do I need to have a website already?

No. ZanBooking works as a standalone product at its own URL. If you have a website, you simply link to your booking page from it.

Does Vigilio Tech take any commission on bookings?

No. Zero. Payments go directly from your client to your Pesapal account. We have no involvement in your transactions after setup.

Can I use my own domain name?

Yes — booking.yourbusiness.com, tours.yourbusiness.com, or a separate domain. We handle the setup.

What if I want my tours uploaded for me?

Available as an add-on. Ask for a quote based on how many listings you have.

What happens after setup?

Two months of free support included. After that, we're available for maintenance and updates at our standard rate.
