Travel agencies · Nigeria
Travel agencies in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt and beyond juggle airline tickets, hotel bookings, visa fees, Hajj and Umrah packages and tour deposits — each with a different supplier, a different margin and a different payment date. Tallium AI puts your invoicing, receipts, bank matching, VAT records and reporting in one app so you always know what a booking actually earned you and what you still owe your consolidator. Unlimited users on every plan, one flat USD price, and books that stay ready for your monthly VAT return to the NRS.

Key takeaways
A NGN 1,800,000 ticket sale might only leave NGN 90,000 in commission after the airline or consolidator takes its share. When gross ticket value and your actual earnings sit in the same spreadsheet, the business looks far healthier than it is — and you only find out when the supplier settlement lands.
Customers pay part now and part later, sometimes by transfer to a personal account, sometimes cash at the counter. Meanwhile the airline, hotel or ground handler wants settling on their own schedule. Without one ledger, you're chasing balances by memory and WhatsApp threads.
A cancelled Umrah package or a reissued ticket means credit notes, partial refunds and clawed-back commission — often months after the original sale. Recreating what was charged, refunded and still owed takes hours when the paperwork lives in three places.
Nigerian VAT is charged on your service fee and commission, and returns are due monthly. If invoices are hand-typed in Word and receipts live in a shoebox, every filing period becomes an all-nighter — and there's nothing clean to hand your accountant or show if NRS ever asks.
Record the gross fare and what you pay the supplier, and Tallium AI shows the net commission and service fee that actually belong to your agency. Group by consultant, corporate client, route or package type to see which parts of the business genuinely pay for themselves.
Every deposit, instalment, cash payment and bank transfer posts against the customer's account, so anyone at the counter can see what's still outstanding. Supplier bills sit on the other side with due dates, so you know what has to be settled before the next ticketing cycle.
Issue a credit note straight from the original invoice and Tallium AI adjusts the customer balance, the revenue and the VAT records together. When a clawback comes through weeks later, the whole trail — sale, refund, adjustment — is on one screen.
Snap supplier bills and expense receipts with your phone and the AI reads the amounts and suggests a category. Your VAT figures build up as you go, so preparing the monthly VAT return is a review job rather than a rebuild. Confirm current rates, thresholds and filing rules with NRS or a qualified local tax professional.
Send professional ticket, package and service-fee invoices with your agency's branding, record part payments, and issue credit notes for refunds and cancellations without breaking the audit trail.
Double-entry books running quietly in the background — client receivables, supplier payables, bank matching and staff expenses all in one ledger your accountant can actually work from.
Keep VAT-ready records on your service fees and commissions, with tax-inclusive or exclusive pricing per line and clean summaries to support your monthly VAT return.
Profit and loss, cash position, aged receivables and per-consultant commission — the numbers you need before you commit to the next block of seats or a group booking.
Plain-English nudges on slipping margins, overdue corporate accounts and unusual spend, so problems surface in the quiet season instead of at year end.
Build your plan in a minute — pay only for the parts of your business you run. From $79/month per shop.
