*If you use rates 1 person, 2 person and room price will send. Room price will send for specified occupancy. Multiple rates with different occupancies can send on same rate plan. Prices for "Extra Person",  "Extra child" and discounts set in the "Discounts" tab of the rates can not be sent.   

*Goibo can support more than one price per room for example to send prices for different minimum stays, meal options or refundable and non-refundable prices and  can auto calculate child rates. See  chapter "Multiple Rates"  below.  

 

The Goibibo hotel id code for your property and the username and password you create yourself in the Goibibo extranet.

*Enter your Goibibo username

<span style="color: #f3e504; font-size: 250%;" >{{#fas:lightbulb}} </span> Click on the "View Actual Data" Button to check which prices and availability will send. Prices that had already been set in HRS be overridden but cannot be removed. If no prices have are sent from Beds24, no availability is sent, but the which originally was in HRS is displayed.

If you want to add a multiplier to your prices, for example because of a different currency to your Beds24 currency, add a * followed by the multiplier number to your hotel id.

For example a Hotel Id setting 123456*1.23 will multiply all prices by 1.23 sent for Hotel id 123456. (i.e. raised by 23%) Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1, i.e. 123456*0.85 will send a price 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%)

To convert the price of bookings imported add a * after the multiplier, for example 123456*1.23* will divide the price of the booking by 1.23.

For example *[CONVERT:IDR-EUR] will convert Indonesian Rupees to Euros.

 

Goibibo can set up multiple rate plan ids for each room, each with pre-defined booking conditions. Beds24 can map a different Beds24 rate or offer to each  Goibibo rate. [[Setting_Prices_for_Booking_Channels#Mapping_channel_rate_codes|Please use these instructions]].

By default all all available rooms are sent to activated channels. In SETTINGS->CHANNEL MANAGER->CHANNEL INVENTORY limit the number of accepted bookings for this channel.
