Integrating BedBooking with OTA (Online Travel Agency) channels is a great way to manage your bookings efficiently and maximize your revenue. This feature allows you to easily sync your BedBooking account with popular platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, and many others via iCalendar (HRS, Expedia, Slowhop, among others). It’s the key to optimizing your booking management and boosting productivity!
Benefits of Integration with OTA Channels
-
Automated booking management: All your bookings are centralized in one place, making them easier to manage.
-
Lower risk of errors: Automatic synchronization reduces the chance of duplicate bookings or calendar mistakes.
-
Time-saving: No need to manually update each platform separately.
Why Use Official Integrations with OTAs?
The official integrations with Airbnb and Booking.com offered by BedBooking allow real-time exchange of key information between systems. This includes:
-
Availability: Your calendars are always up to date, minimizing the risk of double bookings.
-
Prices: Price changes are automatically synced with OTA channels. With BedBooking, you can manage prices from a single place. Learn how to work less and earn more here: How to set global “Commission and Availability”?

Restrictions: Settings like minimum stay or blocked days are automatically synced.
Thanks to these official integrations, you’ll save time, reduce errors, and focus on delivering the best experience to your guests—instead of worrying about manually updating calendars.

How Does iCalendar Integration Work?
If you use OTA channels that don’t have an official integration with BedBooking, you can use iCalendar (iCal). This simple tool allows syncing availability information between BedBooking and the selected platform.
WARNING! With iCalendar integration, synchronization is limited to availability only. Therefore, you’ll need to manage prices and restrictions manually on each platform.
