Some Booking.com rate ids can accept a room price plus a single occupancy price on the same rate id. If you have this rate type and want to send the single occupancy price set "Booking.com Rate Type " = "Per Day Pricing + Single". If you do not have this rate type or you are not sure set "Booking.com Rate Type "= " Per Day Pricing" or "Per Occupancy Pricing"

4) If you have different price options i.e. refundable/non refundable rates, meal plans
Booking.com can support more than one price per room and day.
If you need additional rate plans, for example a for different occupancies, or a non-refundable rate, or your rate plan contains meals, you can create additional rate plans in [[Booking.com:_Create_Booking.com_Rate_Plans_in_Beds24|{{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS)  CHANNEL MANAGER > BOOKING.COM > RATE PLANS]].
[[Setting_Prices_for_Booking_Channels#Mapping_channel_rate_codes|Please use these mapping instructions if you have multiple rate codes]].
5) If you want to mark your prices up or down or need currency conversion
You can add a multiplier to your prices, add a '''*''' followed by the multiplier number in the "Multiplier" field
Examples:
*'''*1.23''' will multiply all prices by 1.23  (i.e. raised by 23%).
*Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1: '''*0.85''' will send 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%).
*To convert the price of bookings imported from the channel add a '''*''' AFTER the multiplier. '''*1.23*''' will divide the price of the booking by 1.23.
*For currency conversion you can also use currency conversion template variables. All currencies supported by the booking page currency selector can be used.
**'''*[CONVERT:IDR-EUR]''' will convert Indonesian Rupees to Euros.
**'''*[CONVERT:IDR-EUR]*''' will convert Indonesian Rupees to Euros and back to Indonesian Rupees on the import.
6. Limit the maximum number of accepted bookings if you do not want to offer all rooms
By default all available rooms are sent to activated channels. In {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS)  CHANNEL MANAGER > CHANNEL INVENTORY limit the number of accepted bookings for this channel.
