'''<span style="color:#019cde;“>{{#fas:external-link-square-alt}}  </span> Auto Actions for Expedia messaging and Calendar Additions'''
 +
 +

 +
 +
For the Calendar we have released a number of enhancements:
 +
*a * icon with a price indicates that there is a minimum stay set in the daily price rule for this daily price.
 +
*hover texts on the Daily Prices in the Calendar show you miniumum stays, maximum stays and prices for different occupancies
 +
*group bookings are marked with a {{#fas:circle}}  icon. For the master booking, the circle is filled.

'''<span style="color:#019cde;“>{{#fas:external-link-square-alt}}  </span> New onboarding flow for Booking.com'''
 +
 +
As part of our ongoing effort to improve workflows we have changed the way our connection with Booking.com works.
 +
 +
'''Why have we done this?'''
 +
 +
Until now we have automatically confirmed connection requests. When we confirm a connection request Booking.com deletes the properties prices and availability and expects the prices and availability to be sent from the channel manager. 
 +
 +
Since we can not know if a property is ready this can result in properties being closed at Booking.com. 
 +
 +
'''What changes?'''
 +
 +
The change we have made allows you to activate the connection yourself when you are ready.
 +
 +
'''What happens if I am already connected?'''
 +
 +
Nothing. The change only applies to new connections.
 +
 +
The instructions for the [https://wiki.beds24.com/index.php?title=Booking.com:_Synchronise_bookings_prices_availability mapping] and  for the [https://wiki.beds24.com/index.php?title=Booking.com:_Import_Properties_from_Booking.com_to_Beds24 property import] have been updated.

'''<span style="color:#7bcbed;“ >{{#fas:plus-square}} </span>Messaging integration with Expedia Group (Beta)'''
 +
 +
As an Expedia Elite partner Beds24 was granted early access to Expedias new messaging API.
 +
 +
You can now conveniently communicate with guests who booked via Expedia from the booking in Beds24. Messages from guests will also show under MESSAGES.
 +
 +
The feature is automatically enabled.  [https://wiki.beds24.com/index.php/Expedia_Mapping#Send_and_receive_messages For more information click here].
 +
 +
This function is still in beta testing while Expedia fixes bugs. At the moment you can send  only messages manually. Automatic sending will be possible shortly

We’re honored to be one of the select few to receive this status as a nod to the quality of service we provide.

'''<span style="color:#7bcbed;“ >{{#fas:plus-square}} </span>Receive Airbnb suspension warnings in Beds24'''
 +
 +
As a host, it is important to be aware if an Airbnb listing is at risk of being suspended. This is why we now show Airbnbs suspension warnings under MESSAGES. If you see such a message click on the link in the message for details. Resolve the issues immediately if required by involving Airbnb support.

'''<span style="color:#019cde;“ >{{#fas:external-link-square-alt}}  </span> Rates renamed to "Fixed Prices"'''
 +
 +
As a next step on the updates to the control panel we will rename "Rates" to "Fixed Prices". The change will go live shortly. Some help pages have already been updated, the rest will follow shortly. If you see any place where the term "Rates" is used by the end of this week please let us know.
 +
 +
Why we want to do this: Many customers starting with Beds24 confuse what we call rates with channel rate plans. Using the terms "Daily Prices" for dynamic prices and "fixed prices" for prices which have a start and an end date should stop this. 
 +
 +
In terms of functionalty nothing will change.

Auto Actions for Expedia messaging and Calendar Additions

Automatic sending for messaging with Expedia is now possilbe.

For the Calendar we have released a number of enhancements:

  • a * icon with a price indicates that there is a minimum stay set in the daily price rule for this daily price.
  • hover texts on the Daily Prices in the Calendar show you miniumum stays, maximum stays and prices for different occupancies
  • group bookings are marked with a icon. For the master booking, the circle is filled.

All implemented and next planned changes are documented here.

13th April 2024

New onboarding flow for Booking.com

As part of our ongoing effort to improve workflows we have changed the way our connection with Booking.com works.

Why have we done this?

Until now we have automatically confirmed connection requests. When we confirm a connection request Booking.com deletes the properties prices and availability and expects the prices and availability to be sent from the channel manager.

Since we can not know if a property is ready this can result in properties being closed at Booking.com.

What changes?

The change we have made allows you to activate the connection yourself when you are ready.

What happens if I am already connected?

Nothing. The change only applies to new connections.

The instructions for the mapping and for the property import have been updated.

All implemented and next planned changes are documented here.

Beds24 is now Airbnb Preferred+ Partner

Airbnb’s 2024 list of preferred partners is out and BEDS24 was named a Preferred+ partner! We’re honored to be one of the select few to receive this status as a nod to the quality of service we provide.

You can learn more about the program and what it means for us and our customers on our blog.

Beds24 confirmed as an Expedia Elite Partner and a Vrbo Preferred Partner

Expedia Group recognizes and rewards only select few connectivity partners who achieved excellent results on various technical and performance metrics, as 'Elite Partners' . In 2024, only the top 2% of Expedia Group's connectivity partners are Elite. We are proud to be part of it.

Receive Airbnb suspension warnings in Beds24

5th February 2024

Rates renamed to "Fixed Prices"

As a next step on the updates to the control panel we will rename "Rates" to "Fixed Prices". The change will go live shortly. Some help pages have already been updated, the rest will follow shortly. If you see any place where the term "Rates" is used by the end of this week please let us know.

Why we want to do this: Many customers starting with Beds24 confuse what we call rates with channel rate plans. Using the terms "Daily Prices" for dynamic prices and "fixed prices" for prices which have a start and an end date should stop this.

In terms of functionalty nothing will change.

All implemented and next planned changes are documented here.

Strong customer Authentication in the EU

Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) comes into effect on September 14th in Europe.

This will affect EU based businesses charging cards issued within the EU. Non EU business’s and non EU cards should not be affected by the new rules.

Bookings from OTAs:

Collecting a credit card number without SCA will no longer be a reliable means of security as the card holders bank will likely reject the transaction. Many OTAs including Booking.com and Expedia can collect guest payments at the time of booking (channel collect) with SCA. The OTA will then distribute the funds to you by bank transfer or virtual credit card so you avoid the need to deal with SCA and declined transactions. Beds24 can automatically process the virtual cards on the day the funds become available at Stripe and deposit them directly to your account. If you require security or prepayment but do not want the OTA to collect payment, you can accept bookings without card or deposit from the OTA and send a payment request to the guest from Beds24 manually or using auto actions.

Direct bookings:

You can collect a card payment with the booking using SCA. If you require additional payments from EU guests you will need to send a payment request so the guest can complete the SCA again.

Payment Gateways:

Paypal and Realex will are taking care of the required functionality from their end.

If you enable ‘Strong Customer Authentication’ for Stripe in SETTINGS-> PAYMENTS -> PAYMENT GATEWAYS ->STRIPE , it enables SCA authentication for Stripe booking page payments and payment requests sent to guests.

Payment requests:

Payment requests sent to the guest after booking are an alternative to collecting a card from an OTA as security. Information on how to set up payment requests is available here.

You can find more information about SCA on our blog.

September 12th 2019

  • A negative value will be deducted for each guest less than the "Maximum Guests" setting for the daily price. The daily price will not be available for more than the daily price Maximum Guests value.

There are limitations for channel management which are different for each channel. Channels do not accept children prices and most channels cannot accept the extra person price. Please see the daily prices help pages and channel help pages for more information.

Upgrade your Airbnb XML connections to "synchronous availability check"

Airbnb has now implemented the option to check availability and accept or reject a booking at the very last step of the booking process, when the guest enters their payment method.

The normal XML availability check is performed when the guest first clicks the book button. Airbnb does not limit the time they give a guest to complete the booking so it is possible the room can become unavailable before the guest completes the booking.

By upgrading your Airbnb connection, both checks will be performed. The upgrade requires granting Beds24 permission to accept or reject reservations in your Airbnb account.

How to upgrade:

  • If you have multiple Airbnb accounts, log completely out of Airbnb.
  • Log into Beds24. If you have connected more than one Airbnb account in Beds24 make sure you are logged into the Beds24 account/subaccount which is connected to the Airbnb account you are logged in.
  • Go to Settings > Channel Manager > AirBnB.com XML > Specific Content
  • Scroll down and click the 'Airbnb additional functions' link.
  • Then click the button. This will take you to Airbnb where you should log into the Airbnb account connected to your beds24 account.
  • Accept the new permissions and you will be returned to Beds24

To check the upgrade worked, log into your Airbnb account and go to ACCOUNT SETTINGS -> CONNECTED APPS. Click on "Beds24". If you see "Accept and decline reservations" in the list of permissions, your upgrade worked and a final check of availability will now be made at the end of every booking process.
