This is a 2020 post. It is now 2023. Has OwnerRez been updated to offer more than 2 payments? Three would be great. I am hoping this update was made as part of the updates driving the price increases.
Hi Pat,
If you navigate via Settings > Hosted Website > Website in Question > Home > Change settings for Availability/Property Search Widget. You'll find several options for how those rates are displayed.
If you'd like to remove those rates, you can simply select Hide Rates.
As an additional note, the aforementioned change settings option is only present if under the "Body" tab of the home page The property index field is set correctly, see below for an example of that.
I have a multi-property website. On the main page of the website what the website shows as my rate per night for each property is the highest nightly rate over the next 12 months. I'm afraid that will scare people off, especially in the off season when rates are about 1/3 of those rates. Is there any way to get rid of that?
The devs agree with you, so, it shall be done.
We have to reset your Hosted Website to the multiple-property format - just write in to the Helpdesk and we can take care of this for you.
When I first set up our OwnerRez website we had only one property. But now I'm in the process of adding a separate property. Is there a way to add that property to my website or do I need to go back and start from scratch and set up a site for multiple properties?
Understood, but the lack of an alt tag (even a blank one) is being flagged as a potential spam signal, so wouldn't it be best to just add the tag?
It's a single pixel for tracking - there's nothing visible for anyone to see, blind or otherwise.
Ken - Thanks for these tips. I've been working through the list and when using https://www.mail-tester.com/ the review is flagging the following error:
I believe this is associated with a tracking pixel or something that OwnerRez is inserting into the email dynamically. Is that right? If so, can your Eng team please add the "alt" tag to clear this up and improve deliverability?
Cheers, Devin
Yes, this is scheduled for later this year.
As of the release earlier this week, Vrbo will no longer know about optional surcharges added to the booking after the guest books. We worked with Vrbo to make sure this would work since the payment total may not match the charge total. It's now set it to ignore "other surcharges" or where the surcharge mode is automatic. So, PPB commission fees should not be factoring in any such surcharges any longer.
Hi,
Just looking for a status on this topic. Thanks!

The most likely reason is, that button's configuration is botched in your header menu settings, and it's not pointing at the Book Now page. I'd suggest looking into that:

If you can't sort it out that way, write in to the Helpdesk with specifics, and we'll take a look.
Hello
Ive been struggling for a little wile trying to fix this I'm assuming I probably set it up wrong some how .
so , I have two hosted web sites ,one for each of the two property I manage. the book now feature dose not work on one of them. The button dose not do any thing when I click on it, just stays on the landing page. I have them both hosted with go daddy with the same setting as for as I can tell .but one just do not seem to work. I checked through the forms and help but could not find anything . thank you in advance for any help or suggestions .
When you say, "did what I said" do you mean you disconnected the API? Perhaps it would be helpful if you could write in to Help@OwnerReservations.com & we can check your account?
You can view this by going to your calendar (on Airbnb.com) and if you have multiple properties, you'd click into that listing & check for this option on the far right tools area:
Click into the Promotion:
Did you do the early opt-in to the Summer 2023 release? If so, you won't see any of the above, you'll see:
In that case, if you need to edit custom promos, you'd want to go to your Airbnb API, disconnect the property in question from the API. Make your edits on Airbnb.com & reconnect the API.
Thank you, I did the summer release and did what you said 3 hours ago and it hasn’t changed yet. Does it take time or did that not work?

This is happening to me using same stack as Julie. How do I turn off custom promotions with Airbnb? All my discounts say "not set" in airbnb and I don't see where to turn promotions off. I have made several attempts to fix through airbnb and they don't know.
Hi Julie:
This is a frequent question. It's a little startling when you see it happen.
When you activate custom promos on Airbnb, that stops the rates sync from OwnerRez. As long as that custom promo is in place, the PriceLabs changes will not update. When Airbnb displays that "base rate" for your promo, they are taking the rate from the median of the prior 60 days pricing. What is slick about that is you can often take advantage of any potential algorithm bump using the Airbnb promo and be offering a rate in the range of the nightly rate PriceLabs had been recently sending.
If you click on the "some prices changed" link in your last image, you'll see this info
Hey all!
I've been working on pricing today and noticed that AirBNB is displaying a higher price than I have set up.
My stack is PriceLabs > OwnerRez > AirBNB
There is NO rate adjustment set for AirBNB
There are NO surcharges that apply to this property aside from the cleaning fee, which is its own line item.
This seems to ONLY be happening on dates where I have an AirBNB promotion set (there's other discrepancies, but not major ones). Thoughts??
ETA: I just deleted the promotion and it actually went to the $149 that PriceLabs shows. It must be some glitch with AirBNB... it makes the base price HIGHER when I turn on a promotion?? Absolutely bizarre. I can assign a 22% discount to get the displayed price back to $149. But only on some listings, apparently; I encounter this issue on some listings but not all of them.
Is there a way to set a commission rate for taxes collected for PM client accounts?
I was definitely over thinking that! Thank you!
I tried to do the Manual Lock option where it generates the last 4 digits of the number and then its the DOOR CODE field but that is not populating within the template.
That ought to work. Please write in to the Helpdesk with a specific example where it did not, so we can investigate.
In your Property Rules, or a particular Season, use the checkin/checkout checkboxes to disallow checking in or out on a Saturday.
This way, since guests cannot leave or arrive on Saturday, if they are staying Friday night, they'll have to stay other through Sunday as that's the next available opportunity to check out.
Is there any update on being able to offer more than 2 payments?
If you have SMS enabled, simply setup an SMS template and trigger. Hard code the cleaner's phone number in the template. You could put something like this:
New Booking:
{PDISPNAME}
{BARRDAY} {BARR} to {BDEPDAY} {BDEP} for {BNNGHTS} nights
{CFULL}
{CEMAILPRIME}
{CPHONEPR}
{BNGUEST} guests, {BNADULT} adults and {BNCHILD} children, plus {BNPET} pets
Booked via {BSOURCE}
How can I make it so the cleaner gets a text alert of a new booking?
Hi,
I've used Guesty for Hosts and Hospitable which have less features yet I can't figure out how to do this on Owner Rez. I have a check in instructions template that is to be sent to the guest before arrival. In the template I include the smart lock code. To clarify, I enter the codes in the smart lock on my own and am not looking for anything to integrate with my lock. I simply want a field to insert in the check in template that populates the contact's last four digits of their phone number.
I tried to do the Manual Lock option where it generates the last 4 digits of the number and then its the DOOR CODE field but that is not populating within the template.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, that would be great! Thanks!
I have Fri/Sat/Sun set up as 2 night minimums, but I end up with a lot of Saturday check out or in’s, and I’d rather book Fri/Sat together. How can I set that up?
Question about Google Analytics G4 and multiple hosted websites with OwnerRez:I have two hosted websites. I am trying to migrate to G4 Analytics.I have been able to migrate one domain. Since I have entered the Google tag for that domain into my Owner Rez account, will it track both domains?
