FastX Codes

FastX codes are unique identifiers created by Travelgate to make connectivity across the Marketplace easier and more efficient.
They represent a unified way to identify hotels, boards, and rooms, so you can work with multiple Suppliers using a single, consistent set of codes.

As a Buyer, you only need to map to the FastX codes — once you do, you can seamlessly access and book content from any connected Supplier without having to remap each one individually.

To make mapping even easier, FastX codes are available in GIATA under the name "travelgate". This means that if you already use GIATA, integrating with Travelgate becomes even simpler — everything aligns smoothly.

The sections below explain how FastX codes work and how you can retrieve them through our API.

Hotels​

There are two ways to obtain FastX hotel codes:

1. FastX Hotel Master​

This is a single call that returns the master list of FastX hotels available to you in the Travelgate Marketplace. It includes all unique hotels offered by the Sellers you are connected to. As you add new Sellers, any new properties they provide — not already offered by your other connected Suppliers — are automatically included in your master list.

To retrieve it, make a hotel list call using your FastX access, which you can find in the MyConnections section under the Seller “Travelgate”.

You can also receive the GIATA code associated with each hotel if you have activated this functionality.

2. Hotel List by Supplier​

Travelgate maintains full transparency. In addition to FastX codes, you can also access each Supplier’s static data. When you make a hotel list call to a specific Supplier access, you’ll receive:

  • The Supplier’s native hotel code and hotel information.
  • The FastX hotel code in the mappings node.
  • The GIATA code, if you have activated this functionality.

This allows you to keep your systems synchronized with both the standardized FastX codes and each Supplier’s own identifiers.

Boards​

To get the list of FastX boards, make a boards call using your FastX access (available in MyConnections under “Travelgate”). This will return the complete set of meal plans you’ll encounter in the booking flow — all identified with standardized FastX codes and names.

Rooms​

With FastX, Travelgate standardizes room names and codes across all connected Suppliers. We process each Supplier’s room descriptions in real time and convert them into unique FastX room codes and standardized names.

When you perform a search call, you’ll receive both:

  • The FastX standardized room code and name
  • The Supplier’s native code and description

This ensures a consistent experience across the Marketplace while keeping full visibility into each Supplier’s original data.
