<span style="color:#fe746c;“ >{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}}  </span> If you use rates you do not need to set up Daily Prices for every day. If required you can use a Daily Price to adjust the prices for an individual date or date range.
Which type you use depends on your pricing structure:


'''Daily Prices'''
'''Daily Prices'''


Daily Prices are prices for one date. Daily prices  are easy to manage and are the best choice for most customers.  Multiple prices per date can be defined for example for different minimum stays or different offers.

Go to PRICES > RATES in the top menu. Multiple rates and discounts may be defined for each room. When multiple rates exist for a given date the system default will calculate and offer the lowest price that matches your criteria.  
Please find more information on the help page for [https://wiki.beds24.com/index.php/Category:Rates rates].
 
When creating multiple rates you would generally set your highest price to always be available and create discounted price rates for longer stays, specific days of the week or date ranges as you require. This way you can create sophisticated rate models.

It is not necessary to use both daily prices and rates but a combination of daily prices and rates can be used to fine tune pricing structures.

*You can use Daily Prices to override the a rate for a few individual dates. If you you often adjust prices use Daily Prices only.
