<div class="heading">Last Minute and Early Booker Prices</div>


A last-minute-rate can be created using ''Max days until check-in'' in the daily prices and rates.
This page explains how to create last minute prices.


The setting defines how many days in advance this rate is bookable. For example a setting of 0 will allow this rate to be booked for a stay tonight. A setting of 3 means this rate is only available at least 3 days before the first night of the booking.
=Last Minute Prices=
A last-minute-price can be created using '''Max days until check-in''' in the daily prices and fixed prices.
 
The setting defines how many days in advance a price is bookable. For example a setting of 0 will allow this price to be booked for a stay tonight. A setting of 3 means this price is only available at least 3 days before the first night of the booking.
 
Example: You want to create a last-minute-orice which is only available 7 days before check-in. You need two  prices, your normal price which is always available and and an additiional last-minute-price.
 
'''Option 1 using Daily Prices (recommended)'''
 
Go to PRICES -> DAILY PRICE RULES and create your two Daily Prices:
*Daily Price 1 would be your your normal price.  Set ''Max days in advance'' =  999 (the default).
*Daily Price 2 would be your last-minute price. Set ''Max days in advance'' = 7 will allow these prices to be available for bookings with the check-in in the next 7 days.
 
When you go to the CALENDAR you will now see additional "Daily Price" rows where you can enter the prices.
 
'''Option 2 using Fixed Prices'''
 
Go to PRICES -> FIXED PRICES and create your prices:
*Fixed Price  1would be your your normal price.  Set ''Max days in advance'' =  999 (the default).
*Fixed Price 2 would be your last-minute price. Set ''Max days in advance'' = 7 will allow these prices to be available for bookings with the check-in in the next 7 days.
 
=Early Booker Prices=
An early-booker-price can be created using '''Min days until Check-in''' in the daily prices and fixed prices.
 
The setting defines how many days in advance the guest needs to book so this price is applied. For example a setting of 30 will allow this price  to be booked only 30 days before check-in.
 
Example: You want to give guests who book at least 30 days before check-in a special early bookier price. You need two  prices, your normal price which is always available and and an additiional early booker-price.
 
'''Option 1 using Daily Prices (recommended)'''
 
Go to PRICES -> DAILY PRICE RULES and create your daily prices:
*Daily Price 1 would be your your normal price.  Set ''Max days in advance'' =  0 (or 1 if you do not allow same-day bookings).
*Daily Price 2 would be your early-booker price. Set ''Max days in advance'' = 30 will allow these prices to be available for bookings with the check-in in the next 30 days.
 
When you go to the CALENDAR you will now see additional "Daily Price" rows where you can enter the prices.
 
''Option 2 using Fixed Prices'''
 
Go to PRICES -> FIXED PRICES and create your prices:
*Fixed Price  1 would be your your normal price.  Set ''Max days in advance'' =  0 (or 1 if you do not allow same-day bookings).
*Fixed Price 2 would be your early-booker price. Set ''Max days in advance'' = 30 will allow these prices to be available for bookings with the check-in in the next 30 days.
