Channel Manager — sync your calendar and rates with Online Travel Agencies
How to achieve the maximum potential of multi-channel sales in a hotel without the risk of overbooking? Thanks to our Channel Manage, you can distribute your inventory across several marketplaces at once, while managing rates and availability from just one system. IdoBooking allows you to reach the maximum occupancy rate thanks to automatic synchronization with over 50 largest OTAs, such as Booking.com, Expedia.com, TripAdvisor and many more. Each hotel should use Channel Manager to keep track of their reservations in various marketplaces.
How does IdoSell Channel Manager work?
Channel Manager is a tool which enables central availability management and automatic price updates in all connected sales channels. You don't have to remember to log in to every site and to block availability manually - all updates are made in one admin panel. Reservations placed in any connected OTA block availability across all channels.
Key benefits:
- increasing distribution by making your offer available in multiple channels at the same time
- automating your work by managing prices and reservations in one calendar
- saving time by checking all reservation details directly in IdoBooking
- reducing the risk of overbooking
- limiting the need to remember all logins and passwords for individual websites
- getting a clear picture of the profits, broken down by the booking source
Why is it worth it?
Thanks to IdoBooking, you present always up-to-date availability in the favourite OTAs of your guests and have an opportunity to discover new sales channels, reaching completely new customers. The more marketplaces you connect, the greater the chance that your offer will reach the desired target group.
