How to create a pricing plan? (...and connect them with active OTA Channels)
Updated over a year ago

After adding Room Types most important thing is to add Rate Plan(s) and fill it with prices.

It is usual that properties do have different prices during the year. Example: High and Low season, New Year, Weekends etc.. So your prices can vary from 50 to 150 for the same property in different periods every year.

Unless most of the systems where you need to manually enter periods and prices each year (a lot of clicking each time) – with our latest update on rate plans we automatized that as much as it was possible.

How to add a rate plan?

By default system will always create a “Default Price” rate plan. You can always edit it, delete it or create new ones.

To do so, go to Settings > Prices / Restrictions.

Types of rate plans:

To create a new Pricing Plan click on the blue plus icon as in the image below:

In our system, we have 2 types of rate plans.

  1. Manual > Where you add prices on your own

  2. Automatic > It inherits prices from some Manual Rate Plan and adds variation on these prices. Example: 10% lower than Standard Rate.

1. Manual Rate Plans

If you have questions regarding the price per person logic and settings, please check this article: https://helpdesk.otasync.me/en/articles/7135509-how-to-configure-the-price-per-person

2. Automatic Rate Plans

Ho to change prices for a specific period?

This is valid for Manual Rate Plans only as Automatic prices are inherited.

  1. Directly from Calendar

Simply select dates

And then enter the desired price

2. From the Prices and Restrictions Tab

Go to Calendar > Prices and Restrictions tab

In order to connect this newly created rate plans with new rate plans on Online Sales Channels such as Booking.com, Expedia or others, you need to go to Settings > Channel Manager > Connect Channel Manager > and in the newly opened popup to the channel you want to do the mapping by clicking Actions > Edit Channel > Mapping tab > Refresh and do the merge and save.

Step by step guide would be:

Don't forget to do the mapping for every room type you have.

After that click on blue SAVE and you may close the popup.
