...his to save the Stripe connection right away and then ask for the settings after the fact. That way, if you click away, the Stripe connection is still saved.
We'll keep our eye on all the new 3DS2 stuff, but if you see something that seems off, let us know right away! Even if you're not a European merchant, keep an eye on your Stripe settings and processing history in OwnerRez and let us know if so...

...everybody, time to talk updates! This week, we've got a tidy little set of updates (about 16) to go through, all of which are enhancements or bug fixes. No new features to talk about, but the little stuff is important too! 💪

...channels and more channel related feature throughout the rest of the year and into 2019.
As vacation rental owners ourselves we're salivating over the possiblities and can't wait to get all of this stuff done! The current roadmap starts with booking.com content push, then into VRBO/HomeAway and Airbnb content push (both via channel bridge for everyone and direct integrations for 5+ property users). A...

...the weeds on that part first.
Before Inbox cleanup, we've had to clean up messaging features (like Autoresponder) and work our way through some of the side features so that we can get to the main stuff. That, too, has already been underway for a while.
Our PM system has a large V2 about to drop that we've been working on for 2 years which changes a number of significant things around commissio...

Here's a quick pic of us testing it:
(Ignore the purple buttons. That's extra stuff that only OR staff can see.)
We created two different locks and associated them with the same property and set "random" as the code generation setting. We created a booking, and, as you can see,...

We are changing it to use the name. The feedback on that has been overwhelming and the use case is pretty obvious. The OwnerRez engineer working on lock stuff is already actively working on putting that in place.

...pensing. In the future, we will sync these fees and deposits with QuickBooks as well. If you use Converge or some of the others, you probably won't get that for a while if ever.
Just some other stuff to keep in mind. The processing fee % isn't everything.

@Valerie - I think it's best to post requests for feature changes in the other forum, makes it easier for the OR team to not overlook it.
I agree with your comments, there is a lot of value in keeping short term rental stuff all in one place.

Thanks for the feedback! We're continuing to develop our strategy on managing email, inbox/outbox stuff, and that's very helpful!
In the meantime, we've put email history under Tools so you have a quick link to get back there.

I think the minimum price setting takes care of them going too low, but I've never used it.
Marinas Edge, have you gotten higher prices with the smart stuff turned on? Or does it always tend to hit your minimum?

...their real email address, populate it in OwnerRez, and then your scheduled emails will work for those bookings as well.
We've got some enhancements for walled gardens planned for later this year -- stuff like parsing the booking and payment notifications so we can populate charges and payments, a guest "checkout" that would accept their email address and have them sign your renter agreement, etc. As...

Question - have you asked Lynnbrook about interchange plus pricing? I'm wondering if they already have that. They seemed pretty amenable to most of the stuff we've talked to them about. It's possible that they already do that, if specifically asked.

...out a difference of $50 per month which more than covers whatever the gateway is monthly.
When you say invoicing and pre-scheduled, are you talking about outside of VR bookings? For vacation rental stuff, we provide an invoice (quote) for guests and do payment schedules - does that not work for your needs? I guess that's the thing that it comes down to ultimately since it dictates what all processor...

I do not know where you get 3.5% for square. it is 2.9% for non swiped non keyed (invoiced).
yes I mean for one off stuff. for example, my AirBnB or VRBO renter who already paid via VRBO or AIRBNB wants to add an extra night to their stay. I do not do that via AirBNB or VRBO, I just invoice them for extra night cost via Square. or sometimes I have VRBO renter who booked via VRBO and paid deposit via...

Small stuff, and it's going to be fast. Mostly small tweaks, grammar fixes, enhancements. Your request to have a fixed amount for the first payment was included.

We include a bunch of extra stuff like UnitNumber in the Channel Bridge export, but that's not currently used anywhere in OwnerRez.
Right now, the mapping is based off of ListingNumber and you can set that mapping in the property settings of the synced channel.
