The Problem

One booking. Twelve places to update.

When a reservation arrives from Airbnb, those dates need to be blocked on Booking.com, VRBO, Expedia and every other channel you're listed on. Do it manually and it takes time. Miss a channel and the risk of a double booking grows with every hour.

The problem compounds as your portfolio grows. More properties means more calendars, more channels, more updates after every booking. What starts as a manageable routine becomes an operational risk.

HostSync's Channel Manager replaces the manual update cycle with an automatic, two-way sync. When a booking arrives from any connected channel, availability updates are sent to connected channels automatically — without any action from your team.

The Platform

One calendar. Every channel.

Your availability lives in HostSync. Every connected channel reads from and writes to the same source.

What It Does

Real-time sync, end to end.

Real-time two-way sync

Availability and rate changes propagate to all connected channels the moment they happen. Reservations from any channel update your HostSync calendar immediately.

Five integrated OTA channels

Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO, Expedia and Google Vacation Rentals are supported as connected channels. Each connection is two-way: HostSync pushes out, channels push reservations in.

Reduced double-booking risk

When a reservation is confirmed on any channel, HostSync works to block the same dates on other connected channels, significantly reducing the risk of double bookings without manual intervention.

Rate push across all channels

Update a rate in HostSync once and it propagates to every connected OTA. Seasonal pricing, minimum stays and last-minute rates all push simultaneously.

Connection-based pricing

You pay per active connection, not per channel type. The pricing scales predictably as your portfolio and channel mix grow.

Connect and disconnect on demand

Add or remove a channel at any time. Connections take effect immediately. No approval process, no support ticket required.

Setup

Three steps to full channel sync.

1

Connect your OTA accounts

Each OTA connection is authorised once through HostSync settings. Credentials are handled securely.

Sync happens automatically in real time

Every incoming reservation blocks the calendar across all channels. Every rate change propagates outward. One source of truth; HostSync handles the rest.

Property Management

Channel sync reads from centrally managed property calendars and rate rules. Your HostSync PMS is the single source of truth that every connected OTA draws from.

FAQ

Questions about Channel Manager

Which booking channels are supported?
HostSync Channel Manager connects with Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO, Expedia and Google Vacation Rentals. Each connection is two-way: HostSync pushes availability and rate changes outward, and receives reservations from each channel into your central calendar.
How quickly does availability sync after a booking?
Availability updates are sent automatically to connected channels as soon as reservations are confirmed. The sync is designed for near real-time operation, subject to each channel's processing times.
What happens if a double booking still occurs?
The sync architecture is designed to significantly reduce the risk of double bookings. In the event of a timing conflict between simultaneous bookings arriving from different channels for the same dates, HostSync surfaces the conflict so it can be resolved. The risk is reduced compared to manual management, though it cannot be completely eliminated in any channel management system.
Can I connect some channels but not others?
Yes. Each channel connection is managed independently. You can connect any subset of the supported OTAs and add or remove connections at any time without affecting others.
How is channel pricing calculated?
Pricing is based on active connections — each unique combination of a property (or room type for hotels) and a connected channel counts as one connection. The first 30 connections are €1.00 per connection per month; connections beyond 30 are €0.85 each. The pricing calculator on the Pricing page shows the exact cost for your configuration.
