Team mission

Revenue Platform is responsible for the systems and data that turn GetYourGuide bookings into accurate, auditable financial outcomes. We own the booking lifecycle and its conversion into accounting-ready financial data; the foundations for financial and payout data; and the tooling/integrations that keep revenue flows correct at scale, including partner tax information (including validation), FX rates, and auditability of financially-impacting modifications.

Our mission is to enable internal, customer-facing product teams to confidently launch and operate new best-in-class experiences for our Travelers. We succeed when Suppliers get paid correctly and on time, and when Finance & Accounting can trust the numbers. We achieve this by providing clear contracts, reliable platforms, and trustworthy data across sensitive financial domains. 

We empower engineers with high autonomy to develop deep domain knowledge and drive solutions, balancing pragmatic and strategic tradeoffs daily. We navigate this complex space together and collaboration is key to our success.
