BookingPal overview

What is BookingPal?

BookingPal provides rental property owners and managers with a way to increase their online presence by distributing property listings across multiple leading channel partners. It is a centralized booking platform that enables users to enjoy one single contract across various partners such as travel agents (OTAs), property listing sites, GDSs (Global Distribution Systems) and meta-search sites. BookingPal manages all financial and contract-related transactions between the property owners/managers and their guests so there is no need to spend time repeatedly logging information across channels.

BookingPal shares listings for properties such as vacation homes (including timeshare resorts), RV parks, campgrounds and corporate housing throughout six continents. Management professionals have the option to select only those partners that best fit their business model and can appear in their own choice of distribution channels. All changes made on the BookingPal platform including rates, availability, calendars, specials and promotions, are updated automatically and synchronized across all selected channel partners.

The work flow page of BookingPal brings all the reservations in the manager’s account together in one place. An 8-step process assures that all bookings are seen to properly, requiring an action to be taken before moving onto the next phase. These steps can be customized to any order and tailored to each property manager’s booking methods.

Key benefits of using BookingPal

BookingPal offers a simple cloud-based platform for property owners and managers to reach new guests and book hard-to-fill dates.

BookingPal’s synchronization services automatically update all channel partners of any changes in a listing’s rates, availability, promotions and more.

Property managers can capture details and edit booking information allowing for direct contact with the client.

Users have the option to select from over 1000 channel partners from various categories to list and distribute their inventory.

One single contract binds property managers to various channel partners allowing for all financial transactions to handled by BookingPal.
