Hi All,

Received a message from Booking.com today encouraging turning on Security Settings for Messaging including only allowing certain emails for contact guests and blocking links in messages with guests.  I was wondering if anyone else received this and what your approach is going to be or if there is guidance for how we should set this up to ensure that links to rental agreements, our websites etc still work and that messages still get to the guests.

The settings are found under Property | Messaging Preferences | Security Settings.

Thanks

Hi Liz,

 

This is a recent change from Booking.com that we've begun researching but they seem to have made more changes. Could you please write an email to help@ownerrez.com with the subject "Booking Messaging 225032" and we can provide you the URLs to add on that page for testing?
