...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...

...creens. This should reduce a lot of confusion in changing owners while also leading users down a path of success.
The last big enhancement is kind of a nerdy one and might fall under the "dev ops" stuff we don't talk about publicly. However, we decided to mention it here because it might lead to some changes you see in the user interface. We've been cleaning up our dates and time zone logic to cor...

@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.

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...

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.

Interesting coincidence -- I was just looking at the FB pixel tracking stuff the other day. We should be able to implement that similar to how the Google Analytics integration is done -- you put your FB id in user settings, and then we render the code for different events.
GA renders the following right now:
- pageview on widget view, quote accept (checkout) pages, one-off payment pages, hosted websit...

We have a long-planned update coming (no ETA) to unify the messaging around the guest conversation and provide 2 way email there along with your other SMS and channel stuff. The inquiry records will come into there as well.
