General Help and Questions » Reverting Back to Non-Professional Host on Airbnb

No, that's not actually controlled from inside OwneRez - you'll have to work with Airbnb also to get that switched back in their system, if they're willing.

General Help and Questions » Creating Min night stays for all days of week during a season

Yes, all the dynamic pricing systems work generally the same way and follow the same rules with OwnerRez.

General Help and Questions » Security deposit - is it possible for the amount charged to vary?

You'll want to change the Rules, and, potentially, also the Scheduled security deposit on the Transactions tab.

General Help and Questions » Security deposit - is it possible for the amount charged to vary?

In theory, yes, you could do that, but you'd have to set things up manually, and I don't really see what that's accomplishing for you.  We wouldn't recommend trying to do it that way, as there's so m…

General Help and Questions » Security deposit - is it possible for the amount charged to vary?

I'm not sure I understand the question?  It sounds like you're basically just describing a security deposit hold - we collect the credit card info in advance, then set the hold a day or two before ar…

General Help and Questions » Help -- Vrbo and owner rez calendar sync

This is normal - iCals do not carry rate data.  You'll need to work towards our more advanced connection methods, such as our API connection. https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/channel-man…

General Help and Questions » Booking/Blocked Off Time messages

We've looked into making changes to this, but, for now, if you want booking-type messages to be sent, it needs to be a booking, not a block.  A $0 charge booking is valid however.

General Help and Questions » co-hosting

The short answer is - they really don't.  You have to connect with the main channel account, not using a co-hosted account. https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/channel-management-api-integr…

That's right - write in to the Helpdesk explaining in detail what you want to do, and we'll help you work it out.

General Help and Questions » Quick adjusting of check in/check out days

This is a known issue, and there are plans to add a more efficient way of doing this, though no ETA on that at present.

General Help and Questions » VRBO "Hosted By"

Hmm, I think that's usually the name, or perhaps company name, in the Profile in your Vrbo account?  You should be able to change that somewhere, or, reach out to Vrbo support for assistance in doing…

Feature Requests » Cleaning Date

You wouldn't normally block the day of the cleaning - generally, the expectation is that cleaning will take place in the middle of the day, between checkout and checkin. If you want to have a day…

General Help and Questions » Sending Review Links

It is best not to ask for an OwnerRez review from your Airbnb and Vrbo guests - you're better off letting them write the review directly in those channels, and then import it from there into OwnerRez.

Blog » Integration with getawayGoGo

If you want to add a $10 fee, you could just create a surcharge that only applies to GGG bookings - that should do the trick?
