still have questions?

Is a channel manager worth it?

If you list on more than one booking platform, a channel manager for vacation rentals is crucial. Using a channel manager helps ensure your availability is always up to date and accurate across all your booking channels, preventing double and over bookings. The same goes for pricing and other listing details: You won't need to worry about making manual adjustments from different accounts, because your channel manager keeps everything synced. This not only saves you time, but also prevents human error and inspires trust in your potential guests.

What is the best channel manager for vacation rentals?

The best channel manager for vacation rentals is one that supports integrations with numerous booking channels, syncs your availability as well as other listing details, and offers additional automation and optimization features. You'll also want to look for a company that provides flexible pricing options as well as free onboarding and ongoing support.

What information can I synchronize with Lodgify’s channel management software?

Our short-term rental channel manager allows vacation rental owners to synchronize information such as reservation and guest details, total booking amount, up to 18 months of calendar availability, season rates and much more.

How long does it take to update my external bookings on Lodgify?

Your reservations will be automatically synchronized on Lodgify’s STR channel manager and on all your external listings instantly.

What channels does Lodgify connect with?

Lodgify connects via API to Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. This means that these channels are synced in real-time: If there's a change on one channel, it will automatically be updated on the others. You can also use iCal to connect with additional channels.
We're always working on expanding our marketplace, so check back soon to see if we've added any new integrations!

What is an API integration?

API integration is a two-way connection between two software platforms that allows them to communicate with each other and share data. Lodgify's short-term rental channel manager can connect with different channels via API integration, meaning that if there’s a change on one channel, it will automatically be updated on the others. We connect via API to Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Expedia.

How do iCal integrations work?

iCal connections work by using a web address for the availability calendar. Any external portal that connects via iCal can access this URL and regularly check availability.
