Onboarding help for new partners: Hot Tip #2 - Connecting to a channel manager

Hot Tip #2

Welcome back to our Hot Tip Series for new partners. This week's focus will be on your Channel Manager connection. 

Connecting to a channel manager

You might have your property listed on more than one channel and want to make sure that your inventory is correctly managed and in real time. This can be done by having your property connected to a channel manager

There are many providers out there and each of them has unique benefits and capabilities. It's best that you choose a channel manager that fits your needs. Once you have chosen your provider, getting your Booking.com listing connected is rather simple. 

Head to your Booking.com extranet, on the top right-hand corner you'll find a section "Account". A drop down will appear after you click on it - choose "Connectivity Provider" and follow the steps outlined on the page.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or require any help. You can compose a message via the extranet under Inbox > Booking.com messages. Otherwise click on See Contact Options > select a relevant topic eg. Account > select a relevant subtopic eg. Other > then click see all contact options > Message > write your message. 

Our 24/7 partner support team is available on one of the numbers listed in your extranet or check out the overview of where you can reach us.

I use Hosthub / SyncBnB to combine all of my calendars into one easy place. They update about every 5 minutes and offer a NO "double booking" guarantee. They offer features that allow access to team members, such as cleaners, and also offer a place to keep track of expenses. I currently have 4 properties on 4 different channels and will likely have 6 up and running by the summer. I love the multi-calendar feature and it's worth the money because it makes my life easier.

I want to cancel the reservation # 2450491451

It is the "super high season" and I do not want to risk that the customer cancels his reservation 14 days before arrival without cancellation fees and I could not quickly find other customers because it is the high season , it is very dynamic. Another thing: I do not accept cash payments, I only accept payments by bank transfer or by credit card but I did not find on the intranet where to put this condition. Thanks for your help.

Sam yesterday someone called from Booking and told me if someone cancel yo need to ask the guest for the money it is IMPOSSIBLE. I would recommend to change the 14 days for 30 days and you will have more day to find a new reservation. Unfortunately Booking don’t have how to get the money for the guests in some countries.

Actually I have been trying to contacta the guest before they arrive and ask for 50% deposit in my account to 

I hop this can helo  you.

Hello I’m a new host in booking.

My customers all pay cash when they arrive to my house. But I don’t know  how will booking pay to me the cancellation when it happens 14 days before they arrive?
