destin® the legacy platform for our suite of products was developed with the assistance of a major accounting consulting firm. You will know the exact profits real time.

No more paper versions or lost emails, Planners and customers alike are fully informed of updates real time.
Designed and developed by transportation experts the destin platform saves time and gives planners peace of mind. There is no problem with updates at the last minute and they can be done by participants via their own dashboard that contains everything they are doing. No more printing departure notices, they are sent via email or SMS and can handle two way communication.
Operational reports are not only available for the service providers but a unique dashboard for the planner makes available every possible report that literally keeps planners up to date in real time. Program itineraries with events shown with every activity/supply and the suppliers with contact numbers. All of this creates much needed transparency for planners and for the service provider empowers field staff to make decisions in moments of truth where decisions must be made.
Financial reports provides a missing component for most service providers. We have seen the GP% increase an average of 12% with destin handling the final billing due to the audit trails and the ability to update additional purchases during program operations.
Daily sales reports provides service providers from DMOs to hotels the ability to measure sales from different sources and shows all suppliers and just how much business is given to each supplier.
