*If your pricing model is "Per Day Pricing" we send the price and the number of guests for the highest number of guest the system can find. If an extra person price is required you need to set it in eDreams.

== Price Multiplier ==
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.

You can also use currency conversion template variable. All currencies supported by the booking page currency selector can be used.

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


==Multiple Rates at eDreams==
eDreams 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.

eDreams 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 eDreams rate. [[Setting_Prices_for_Booking_Channels#Mapping_channel_rate_codes|Please use these instructions]].
If you do not have the appropriate rate ids you need to request eDreams to add them.

== Activate ==
