__TOC__=Booking.com Pricing Models= Our connection with Booking.com supports these pricing models: 1. '''Per Occupancy Pricing (OBP)''' RECOMMENDED - If your Booking.com Rate Type is Per Occupancy Pricing a price for each occupancy defined in Beds24 can be sent. Set the Booking.com Rate Type to '''Per Occupancy Pricing'''.  <span class="" style="color: #f3e504; font-size: 150%;" >{{#fas:lightbulb}} </span> If you only want to send one price per day, this can still be achieved with OBP, set a price for Max Occupancy in your Rate/Daily Price and the same price will be sent for all occupancy. 2. '''Per Day Pricing (Standard)'''This page - If your Booking.com Rate Type is "Per Day Pricing / Standard" you will need a price for the maximum room occupancy. If you want to send an additional "Single" price Booking.com needs to activate the single price option. After this is about done you can set the menu Booking.com Rate Type to '''Per Day Pricing + Single'''.  3. '''Derived Prices (RLO)''' - If Booking.com has set up derived (RLO) prices they calculate prices for different occupancies from one standard price sent from Beds24. <span style="color:#fe746c;“ >{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}} </span> If your pricing model is RLO (derived prices) only Booking.com can change rate plans. Contact Booking.com support or change to Occupancy Pricing.  To '''set/change''' your "Booking.com Rate Type", go to {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) > CHANNEL MANAGER > BOOKING.COM > MAPPING > "BOOKING.COM RATE TYPE". <span class="" style="color: #f3e504; font-size: 150%;" >{{#fas:lightbulb}} </span> To find the Rate Type set at Booking.com go to {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) >CHANNEL MANAGER->BOOKING.COM- >MANAGE RATE PLANSMAPPING, click on "Get the Booking.''com Room and Rate Codes for this Property Code", then check for the details  *<pricing type="Standard" - this confirms - Per Day Pricing*<pricing type="OBP" - this confirms - Per Occupancy pricing*<pricing type="RLO" - this confirms - Derived Pricing
