Booking.com: send a price per guest count (OBP)

Booking.com sets how it accepts prices for each hotel. If your hotel is set to “Price per guest count” (OBP), Booking.com expects a separate price for each guest count. With this switch, Xentra sends exactly that. You can see which pricing model your hotel has in the channel manager, see Connecting Booking.com and Expedia via the channel manager.

Enable

Under Pricing, tab Settings, turn on the switch “Booking.com: send a price per guest count” for the unit and save. The switch is only available for units with a Booking.com connection and only if the feature is enabled for your account.

Before that, you need “Guests in Base Price” (at least 1) and “Max guests” set on the unit, plus the surcharge per guest.

What Xentra sends then

A price for each guest count: the base price with your Booking.com markup, plus the surcharge for each additional guest (no markup is added to the surcharge). The prices will be sent to Booking.com with the next price transmission.

For the pricing models “One price per room” and “Booking.com prices per guest”, the switch changes nothing.

If the switch cannot be saved

• “This feature is not enabled for your account yet.”
• “This unit has no active Booking.com channel.”
• “Your hotel is not set to “Price per guest count” at Booking.com ...”: please ask Booking.com to switch the hotel.
• “Please set “Guests in Base Price” (at least 1) and “Max guests” first.”
• If Booking.com or Channex reject the setup, save again later.
