Booking.com - How will my connection change?

Over the past few years, BedBooking has evolved significantly. Some features have been updated and some have been changed entirely to provide modern tools to help you grow your lodging business.

You may already be using the new Booking.com connection, but we'd like to show you what its previous version looked like.

Old Booking.com connection

The old functionality is a remnant of the version designed for Web App 1.0.
It allows the host to perform a connection setup between BedBooking and Booking.com.

Here's what it looked like:

New Booking.com connection

The new functionality can be accessed from the main menu Sales channels → Booking.com. https://app.bed-booking.com/integration/booking.

The Extranet now sets the default BedBooking context as a Connectivity / Channel Manager service provider. Select the connection type and accept the terms of service.
