Hi Margo,

 

Due to the nature of this please immediately pick up the phone and call BdC PartnerSupport.

 

Its important to understand if you are not using a 3rdparty service - aka Channel manager to manage operating across more than one OTA, you will get double bookings.

 

 

The BdC calendar sync feature is both limited and not real time instant, so it will never sync bi-directionally in real time and result in double booking//overbooking.

 

examples of known channel managers , free and paid for :

 

syncbnb.com

nobeds.com

cloudbeds.com to name a few.

 

PS : finish your profile by adding listing link
