Leaving Hostaway because of the 2% booking fee?

Rentalz Setup & Connecting

OwnerRez has partnered with Rentalz to provide an integrated API connection between the two systems. This allows OwnerRez users to handle their listings and bookings from Rentalz efficiently. Our Channel Management feature is extremely powerful and can significantly simplify your channel advertising. Learn how it works by reading our Channel Management Overview article.

NOTE: Rentalz.com is exclusively for inventory managed by a property management company.

Rentalz definition of a property management company is as follows:

  1. A PM must have at least five properties.
  2. A PM must have a consumer-facing, online booking website with a custom domain. (e.g., acmevacations.com)

What is synchronized?

Our integration pushes listing content, rates, availability, and rules to Rentalz. Rentalz will send booking data and credit card information into OwnerRez.
