Frequently asked questions about Booking.com channel managers
Since Booking.com is an OTA, it doesn’t feature a channel manager. However, they partner with connectivity providers such as SiteMinder to easily enable a channel manager for hotels. SiteMinder is a leading Premier Connectivity Partner of Booking.com, offering you a secure and reliable connection with the platform and over 400 other distribution channels. Once connected, you can easily find the channel manager dashboard on the “Property” tab of your Booking.com account.
Hotels need a channel manager on Booking.com so that they can manage their rates and availability more effectively and efficiently. Without an easy Booking.com channel manager, you will have to manually update each of your room rates which can lead to double bookings and poor guest experience. Not only is it too time-consuming and more prone to human error, but it also causes you to miss out on optimising your pricing and increasing your revenue.
Generally, a Booking.com channel manager works through an Application Programming Interface (API) that automatically updates your availability across multiple platforms. Once you have an account with Booking.com, you can easily connect and manage your account directly inside SiteMinder’s Channel Manager. Room mapping is a secondary link, connecting each of the rooms and rates on the booking channel with their corresponding room rates in the channel manager. After this, you’re ready to enjoy automated, real-time reservation and inventory updates across Booking.com and other connected channels.
