Launched the REST API that serves as the infrastructure for development of the booking system
Mon, Mar 25, 2024
Jicoo now offers a REST API that dramatically reduces the cost of development for booking functions, allowing for a wide range of uses, such as connecting to in-house systems and providing reservation services for external parties.
By providing Jicoo's functions via API, users can immediately use the proven and abundant functions simply by registering them on the site, and can utilize them in various business scenes such as in-house systems for internal DX and new business services for external use with extremely low development man-hours. This will be available in various business scenes such as in-house systems for internal DX and new business services for external use with very little development effort.
The REST API makes it easy to incorporate Jicoo's extensive booking functionality into external systems. In addition to seamlessly invoking the booking functionality, it is also possible to receive booking information and reflect it in CRM and databases.
As long as you have a Jicoo account, you can use it with your team for all plans, including the Free plan.
Background of API Provision
Traditionally, booking systems have not had a development platform like Stripe for payment systems, so countless booking systems have been provided with their own implementation and development. In the recent Corona disaster, countless booking systems were developed to handle vaccinations, and news of their malfunctions has been circulating in Japan.
One reason for this is that building a reliable system for booking requires know-how and complex development. In addition to the initial development, costs related to operation and maintenance are also incurred, making it difficult to develop a system that meets the company's needs in the first place.
