    Overview

    Within TrekkSoft, you can create three different types of accounts for users. The three roles available are explained below:

    Guests

    All individuals who have booked a trip with you - both previous and upcoming tours. Compared to buyers, a guest does not have to be the person who pays for the booking. Your guest records will also include any additional information you’ve collected from your custom field.

    Buyers

    All individuals who have paid for a booking. These are the people who have entered their email address and received the order receipt/booking confirmation. There will only be one buyer per transaction and this is the person who will appear as the Buyer in the Basket Details View.

    NOTE! Each booking can only have one buyer. However, it can have one or multiple guest/s associated with the booking.

    Users

    Anyone who has access to your back-end booking system is a User. This includes employees, agents, accountants, editors, admins and more.
