How to Set Up Booking Engine
Booking Engine is the best tool for direct sales. Thanks to the direct connection to the PMS, your website will always have up-to-date information. In addition, when you receive direct bookings, you do not pay commission to third parties, as there are no intermediaries between you and your guests.
Important: Before installing the Booking Button, make sure you have set up Room Types, Rooms, and Room Rates. Don't forget to upload hotel photos in general settings and rooms photos in Room Types. You can always use the Preview Booking Engine function to see how the page with the data will be displayed.
If you would like to host an availability calendar page on the WordPress site, please follow the instructions below and then contact our support team. A document with a code will be sent. In this document, you need to replace the URL variable from the code (var url) with the copied link from the Booking Engine module.
The module consists of the following tabs:
- Setup for basic settings;
