General Help and Questions » Booking.com

Have you heard back from booking.com yet? For my properties, I've got it set to require address, phone, and card security code. That's the big thing. If your account doesn't have a switch to require…

General Help and Questions » Can I manually select a group of guests to send email to?

Nope, you're not missing anything! Right now you can only email in the context of a booking, quote, etc -- we don't have email blasting or newsletter capability. Turns out that the legalities and req…

General Help and Questions » Search won't find partial matches

That's a good question. The search box up top is a full text search like Google so it decides which partial matches to find and looks for words, so half a name won't always come up. Makes sense thou…

General Help and Questions » Is there a way to add an extra, custom column to guest profiles?

Not right now. We've got custom fields for bookings, but not for guests, yet. What sorts of data points would be tracking?

General Help and Questions » Lease form email address

Yep, you can do that exactly! We need to write some support articles to walk through the steps, but that's what we recommend as a standard process. The contact info form on the renter agreement sign…

General Help and Questions » Google Pay?

Ahh, good info to have. We may look into it at some point -- it'd be sweet to let folks with Android phones be able to do a one-button reservation process instead of entering each piece of info. How…

General Help and Questions » Google Pay?

I don't believe we have a way to integrate with Google Pay right now. Can you send a link to the info in Braintree about Google Pay?

General Help and Questions » VRBO payout sumary report

I saw that! At least they're trying to make the reports better... but if anything it looks like that report has way less info than the existing payout summary report they had. Have you had a chance …

General Help and Questions » My calendar isn't syncing with Evolve

Ahh. Yes, our Airbnb import only imports bookings, not blocked off time. That's because Airbnb includes *everything* on their calendar as blocks -- from holidays to days in advance rules to days betw…

General Help and Questions » Having a Brain Fart re: adding images into an email template

Right, BUT it only happens to work in OwnerRez because you're logged into gmail and have permission to see that image. Log out of gmail or view it in an incognito tab and it will show broken. I pulle…

General Help and Questions » My calendar isn't syncing with Evolve
