    Is there a way to show guests multiple payment options when they check-out (credit card, ACH, Venmo, Zelle, Crypto, etc). Then they can decide how to pay and we can decide if we want to add a surcharge for let's say CCs. I know all of those payment options are available, but only 1 can be set up when they guest is checking out and the others need to be manual.

    So I've been waiting for this to impact our listings on AirBnB, but as of mid-afternoon EST on 10/28/25, I'm still seeing the split fee model on attempting to book my properties at checkout when clicking on 'Price Breakdown' (showing AirBnB Service Fees).

    Is anyone else still awaiting this change to rollout as it's now 1 day after it was supposed to be implemented everywhere?

    Anyone else having issues with not actually being switched over yet? I went through a lot of work over the last two days updating all our rates to avoid giving away too many bookings at a 15.5% discount (our situation precludes using the 15.5%-surcharge method OR recommends). Then I was testing our rates this morning, and it's still using the split-fee pricing structure. This despite Airbnb insisti...

    Yes, see my post above. Still waiting for the “forced” change as of right now. Very frustrating to be told it’s 10/27/25 and here 3 days later, still on split fee.

    Update: I just heard back from Airbnb tech support. Apparently there's a system-wide update going out to all hosts (not just PMS-connected ones) on December 1st, and they are anticipating that our fee structure will update at that time (but they're not going to solidly commit to a timeline either!).

    This is a blatant attempt to get the host to pay Airbnb rather than the guest.  Our rates are going to look higher than everyone else's after we add the surcharge :(

    crap this is going to mess up the RENT amount

    currently direct bookings I pay credit card processing  and airbnb bookings I pay the host fee etc
    I pay my owners Rent less my commissions so if I add a rate adjustment owners will think they are getting more rent but actually that's me adjusting the rate to cover the host fees?

    Now I'm going to have to back out the rate adjustment manually so...

    Shannon, THANK you for this! I was trying to figure this out myself and explain it to my partner Dave....now he gets it after looking at your tables. If we do not raise our rates appropriately (not just 15.5%), we eat the percentage that ABB plans to take from charging us for surcharges such as cleaning, etc. For those of us who have them deduct and pay taxes, that seems like it will also be part o...

    Is it best practice to set a higher price in pricelabs and then apply discounts to direct bookings, or to start with direct booking prices in pricelabs and then add surcharges to bookings that come from other channels, or some mix of these two strategies

    Also, how do you account for different platforms "take" when setting up discounts and surcharges. For example, if Platform A keeps 20% of gue...

    First of all, when you have an urgent issue, there’s no phone number to call and no fast email support. Responses often take 48 hours or more — and sometimes they don’t even answer the actual question, or they just say “watch the videos” (there are hundreds of them).

    On top of that, new “features” like Rezzi guest messaging are being added, but they charge $10/month per unit for it — while othe...

    Several owners have requested a Google Map showing the location of their home and its proximity to nearby ski resorts. We recommend adding this map to the booking page on our website, which is integrated with OwnerRez.  In the example below, it would look great under the booking form. It could be something that we could turn on or off on the Owner Rez widget. 

    Example:

    Hi Copper Corral,

    Our reservation system operates on a night-based booking model rather than calendar days. A one-day block actually encompasses one night, beginning at check-in time and concluding at checkout the following day. While this appears as two calendar days in the system, it represents a single night's stay.

    Blocking individual calendar days would create operational complications...

    Hi Nicole!

    You should be able to accomplish this by creating custom payment options. To configure this, go to Settings > Payment Methods and click Connect a Payment Method. On the following page, scroll to the bottom of the page and click 'Add Custom Option' under Manual Payments. From there, you can insert instructions on how they can send their payment. Be sure to do this for each custom payme...

    Hi Tom,

    You’re absolutely right, it’s never acceptable for a service to be offline. Our systems faced an unusual spike in traffic that briefly affected availability for some users. The event was designed to overwhelm our platform, but our team acted quickly to stabilize performance. Importantly, no data was ever at risk, and we’re confident this won’t impact you again.

    We apologize for the...

    Paul's screenshot was just pointing out where you would be able to set the months. If you set the first to "On or after January" you wouldn't be able to put a second for February. There are two configuration options available:

    1) Your first would need to be "Arrival Month" is "on" "January". 

    2) You can do ranges such as "Arri...

    I’m sorry, but I completely disagree with what you said.
    The customer support is not good at all, and there’s absolutely no real follow-up with clients.

    For example, a few days ago I checked why I wasn’t getting any reservations from Booking.com, and it turned out that Booking.com had deactivated my account, while in OwnerRez it still showed as connected and “working perfectly.”

    I’m paying...

    @Anne -- Aside from me changing my internal lock names to what I would prefer they be listed as in the guest messaging, there's unfortunately no workarounds until this feature is added () .
