Wondering why you can't manually edit Booking.com or Airbnb prices in your BedBooking Price list? Below you will find an explanation of this situation.
If the "Commission and Availability" functionality is enabled for Booking.com or Airbnb, it means that the management of prices and availability restrictions on this platform is automatic. In this case, the base prices you set on BedBooking are automatically increased by the set percentage or amount, and these converted prices are transferred to Booking.com or Airbnb. The same applies to availability restrictions, such as minimum stay on the day of arrival.
You can freely adjust the percentage or amount that is used to convert prices. However, despite this, the "Commission and Availability" functionality may, in rare cases, not provide sufficient freedom in price management. If you want to have manual control over prices on Booking.com or Airbnb, you must turn off the "Commission and availability" option.
How to do it? You can do this in two ways depending on whether you are using local or global options “Commission and availability”:
1. Global “Commission and Availability”
Go to the Price list settings and in the "Commission" tab, find the "Commission and availability" option for Booking.com or Airbnb. Disable this option and you will be able to manually edit prices and availability restrictions for these portals.
2. Local “Commission and Availability”
In the price grid, click on the room name to edit it. Then turn off the “Commission and availability” option for the Booking.com rate plan or Airbnb listing for which you want to manually set prices and availability restrictions.
