You can use a multiplier if your currency in Vrbo is different from your currency in Beds24.  You can either use a fixed factor for currency conversion or '''currency conversion''' template variables. All currencies supported by the booking page currency selector can be used. Example 1 fixed factor: '''*1.23*''' will multiply all prices by 1.23 sent (i.e. raised by 23%). Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1, i.e. '''*0.85*''' will send a price of 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%). Example 2 '''currency conversion''' template variables: '''*[CONVERT:THB-USD]*''' will convert THB to USD to send to Vrbo and store bookings converted into THB.  The * at the end will add an info item '''Vrbo_MULT''' to the booking with the conversion rate applied to the imported booking. This info item is used to convert the financial figures back to the values originally sent by Vrbo when Vrbo check the status of the booking. For example 2 the info code VRBO_MULT will convert the THB in the booking to USD when Vrbo read the booking status.  <span style="color:#fe746c;“ >{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}} </span>Vrbo reads the bookings from Beds24 and calculates their commission from what they read. Do not manually convert the prices imported from Vrbo to convert currencies because Vrbo will then charge you wrong commission. =====Price Multiplier=====If you want to add a markup to your prices you can add it to the "Price Multiplier" field in {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > VRBO.COM > MAPPING. The multiplier applies to all prices and fees which are sent. For example, '''*1.23''' will multiply all prices by 1.23 sent for the property (i.e. raised by 23%).Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1, i.e. '''*0.85''' will send a price of 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%). ===== Taxes & Fees=====Taxes and fees can be added in {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > VRBO.COM > SPECIFIC ROOM CONTENT under "Custom".  *Taxes and fees can apply as a flat fee, a percentage, per day or per guest. *You can choose taxes and fees to be "stay collected".
