Booking Automation
About Booking Automation
**The problem it solves** Short-term rental operators lose hours after every booking updating calendars across OTAs, chasing payments, and adjusting rates listing by listing. **What Booking Automation does** Booking Automation is a combined channel manager and property management system for vacation rental owners, property managers, and small hotels. Founded in 2011 by operators who built it for their own Canadian STR portfolio, it now serves properties across 130 countries in 20 interface languages. **How it works** The core is a channel manager that syncs rates and availability in real time across 40+ OTAs including Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, and Ctrip via two-way API and iCal, preventing double bookings. From the same dashboard operators manage reservations, automate guest messaging over SMS and WhatsApp, take payments through Stripe or PayPal, generate invoices, and run yield rules that adjust prices by occupancy. PriceLabs and other pricing tools connect through an open API, a commission-free direct-booking site with a WordPress plugin is included, and housekeeping and owner logins round out operations. **Who it's for** Independent vacation rental owners and small-to-mid property managers with 1 to 100+ listings who need multi-property calendar control without enterprise pricing.
