About Booking.com Enhanced sync
Manage your property's rooms and rates quickly and easily without needing to log into Booking.com. Enhanced Sync removes the duplicate effort of needing to create rooms and rates on the Booking.com extranet, allowing you to maximise revenue opportunities by making new rates bookable in moments.
To get started and enable Booking.com Enhanced sync for your properties, go to the SiteMinder platform > Distribution > Channels > Booking.com > Enhanced sync tab and click Enable. See the full guide here.
Once you have enabled Enhanced sync and mapped all required room types, rate plans, and room rates, you can then use Multi-Property to bulk edit and distribute rate plans directly to Booking.com.
Manage and distribute rates to Booking.com Enhanced sync in Multi-Property
Once you have enabled Enhanced sync, you can easily bulk edit and distribute rates plans directly to Booking.com, saving you time and reducing the need for manual and duplicate tasks on the channel’s extranet.
To manage and distribute group rate plans to Booking.com directly from Multi-Property:
In Multi-Property, go to Distribution > Rate plans > click on the rate plan.
Click into the Channels tab.
Under Enhanced sync channels > click “Manage” on the Booking.com tile.
💡Note: At least one of the properties assigned to the rate plan needs to be Enhanced Sync enabled for Booking.com to show under the Enhanced Sync Channels tile.
In the Config tab, set inclusions (breakfast, lunch, dinner, or all inclusive) and restrictions (minimum advance booking and maximum advance booking).
In the Policies tab, set a cancellation policy. Choose a cancellation policy from Booking.com via the drop-down list (the drop-down includes all cancellation policies across all properties that have Booking.com Enhanced sync enabled).
Click on the ellipsis button (three dots button) at the top right of the page, then click Distribute.
Select the properties / rates you want to distribute the rate to on Booking.com (properties must have Enhanced sync enabled).
Click the Distribute button.
💡Note:
The rate plan configuration in Multi-Property will overwrite any changes made in the SiteMinder platform. If there are any mismatched settings, an “Overrides” label will show next to the property name in the Properties tab.
As with other channels, you have the option to create a new rate plan or use an existing one, using our Importing feature.
