How It Works

Quick and Easy Setup

Setting up Smart Pricing is a breeze and takes just 60 seconds. It automatically sets rates based on existing property details such as location, capacity, number of bedrooms, and amenities. You don’t need to be a tech wizard to get started—just a few clicks and you’re good to go.

Minimum Nightly Price

Worried about low-demand periods? With Smart Pricing, you can set a minimum nightly price to ensure you’re always earning a certain amount per night, even when demand is low. This feature guarantees that your revenue doesn’t dip below a certain threshold, providing you with a safety net during off-peak times.

Overrides

Sometimes you might want complete control over your pricing. Smart Pricing allows you to fine-tune any nightly price in the calendar or override specific nights where you would like to set the rates yourself. This flexibility means you can adapt to special events or peak seasons as you see fit.

Future-Proof Nightly Price

Smart Pricing ensures that you always have the next 12 months of nightly rates set, so you avoid missing out on those high-value early bookings. By planning ahead, you can secure bookings well in advance, ensuring consistent revenue throughout the year.

The Advantages of Smart Pricing

Data-Driven Decisions

One of the significant advantages of Smart Pricing is its reliance on data-driven decisions. By analysing vast amounts of data, including local events, seasonality, and competitor pricing, Smart Pricing ensures your rates are always optimised. This data-centric approach takes the guesswork out of pricing, allowing you to make informed decisions that enhance your revenue.

Enhanced Guest Experience

Competitive pricing doesn’t just benefit your bottom line—it also enhances the guest experience. When guests feel they’re getting good value for their money, they’re more likely to leave positive reviews and return for future stays. Smart Pricing helps you attract and retain satisfied guests, leading to better occupancy rates and long-term success.

Time-Saving Technology

Managing a vacation rental can be time-consuming, but Smart Pricing alleviates some of that burden. With automated pricing updates, you can save valuable time and focus on other aspects of your business. Whether it’s improving your property, marketing your rental, or simply enjoying some well-deserved downtime, Smart Pricing gives you the freedom to do more.
