How to set rates across all platforms?

I have been using OR for 4 years now and I do really love all the possibilities it offers.  However, I know I must only be scratching the surface with the options.  I absolutely hate setting rates for my properties bc I have to manually go into each property on each platform and go day by day.  I KNOW there has to be an easier way to do this! But bc Airbnb has different platform fees than VRBO how do you do this?  I've searched through the forum posts but don't see one that specifically addresses this. Or if there is a tutorial that you can point me to I would be most grateful.  

Hi there -

If you are not API connected to Airbnb or Vrbo, you would need to make your pricing changes in each platform. This sounds like what you are doing now. If so, there's an easier way to do away with that dreaded task!

When you connect to Airbnb or Vrbo through the API, you would make pricing changes on your OwnerRez Rates calendar and then OwnerRez would push those prices out to all of your connected listings. The Airbnb and Vrbo API settings will allow you to add or subtract a percentage of your choosing to the pushed rate so you can account for platform fees if you'd like.

And you could also use one of our Dynamic Pricing partners to help you determine the rates to charge for your specific property if you don't like doing the pricing yourself. They would push pricing to OwnerRez and we will in turn push those to your API connected listings.

If you have more specific questions related to your account, please reach out to us at help@ownerrez.com - we'd be delighted to assist!

Thank you. I need to do a deep dive into the API integrations. For some reason they scare me! 😝 I’m doing something that basically works for me albeit a very arduous system but worried if I apply the API and everything goes haywire. I will read through all the links again. It just seems complicated.
