Daily prices and all rates in which you have not specified a contract will send to the first contract.
10 Activate
You can view the live availability and prices that will be sent to Hotelbeds before or after activating using the "View actual data" button.
When everything is correct tick "Inventory", "Prices" and "Bookings" to activate the connection.
11 Price Multiplier
If you want to add a multiplier to your prices, for example because Hotelbds requires a different currency to your Beds24 currency, add a * followed by the multiplier number to your Contract Name.
For example a Contract Name setting ABC*1.23 will multiply all prices by 1.23 sent for Contract Name ABC. (i.e. raised by 23%) Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1, i.e. ABC*0.85 will send a price 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%)
