Our Channel Management feature is extremely powerful and can greatly simplify your channel advertising. Learn how it works by reading our Channel Management overview article. The most powerful part of our Channel Management is the API Integrations we have with certain channel partners like Vrbo.

This article provides a list of common questions and answers for the Vrbo API integration that are not covered elsewhere. This article assumes you have already connected the Vrbo API to OwnerRez. If not, do that first.

Questions are added to this page if they are miscellaneous in nature and we have not already answered them in other Vrbo support articles. Please read the Vrbo overview, connecting and rules & settings support articles for Vrbo before coming to this page as those articles cover the normal workflow.

Availability and Rates

Offering discounts that are valid only on certain months - it's not working right!

For Vrbo, discount criteria must be a range, because they can only match things that are inclusive not exclusive. So instead of setting a list of months not allowed, set the range of months that are allowed.

If you specify a less than and a greater than, the range will wrap around the beginning of the year allowing you to target what you want.

Here are a couple of options users may want to try.

Vrbo Monthly Discount Option 1

Vrbo Monthly Discount Option 2

As always, OwnerRez recommends using the Channel Rate Tester by navigating to Tools > Channel Rate Tester.

OwnerRez recommends using the Channel Rate Tester by navigating to Tools > Channel Rate Tester.

Continue to tweak the discount and test it there until you get your best combination, and then test it again as a guest on Vrbo.

How long do availability/rate updates take to show up on Vrbo?

Once your account is live, we will push availability and rate updates in about 20 minutes after you finish making changes in OwnerRez. Additionally, availability is checked instantly just before booking so there is no risk of a double booking against the information in OwnerRez.

Content changes like photos/descriptions can take up to 48 hours for Vrbo to pull updates (see above), but we are able to push rate/availability changes quickly.

If your account isn't live yet, ask your Vrbo Integration Specialists -- they can force an immediate full update of rates/availability.

What is this "Price Consistency" thing and does the API support it?

You may have seen a worrying post on Vrbo's website, saying that "Price Consistency" is now a requirement for a good ranking.

First: this only applies to API connections. If you are not using our Vrbo API, it's entirely irrelevant.

Second: OwnerRez's API connection fully supports their requirements.

Historically, Vrbo's API didn't have a way to define rules-based fees and rates, so what would happen is that you'd set some approximate rates. Then, when the guest went to actually book, Vrbo would call the OwnerRez API, get a specific quote, and then display that to the guest -- so it might be different than the initial price the guest was displayed.

Now, with Price Consistency, we send all of the rules for all rates, surcharges, discounts, taxes, etc. to Vrbo. They will evaluate those and display the correct price to the guest, and then they send us the list of charges for the booking. That way everything is exactly what the guest saw on Vrbo instead of having an intermediate quote through OwnerRez which might be different.

In fact, that's actually the only mode we support for Vrbo API now. So you don't need to worry, you're compliant, and your property ranking will not be harmed.

How do I do weekly/monthly rates and have them available in Vrbo?

Generally, Vrbo doesn't support weekly/monthly type rates. Instead they support length-of-stay discounts.

If you do not have weekly/monthly rates, just use LOS discounts and leave it at that, they'll work in Vrbo and in your direct bookings.

If you already have weekly and/or monthly rates and are configuring the Vrbo API, you have two recommended approaches:

Make the length-of-stay discounts only apply to Vrbo, by setting the Listing Site criteria on the discount to "only Vrbo". That way direct bookings will remain using the weekly/monthly rates you have set in your Seasonal Rates, and Vrbo will use the LOS discount.
Use length-of-stay discounts everywhere, and remove all weekly or monthly rates from your Seasonal Rates.

WARNING: make sure you don't have both weekly/monthly rates and LOS discounts applying to direct bookings! If you do, both discounts will be applied - they will stack, and your direct-booking guests will get a super double discount. They'll be happy but you, not so much.

My Vrbo listing is displaying old "Additional information about rental rates."

This is a known bug where Vrbo displays "rate notes" from years ago on the listing for some reason -- even though those notes are not in the API feed from OwnerRez. They cannot be removed by OwnerRez, or from your Vrbo control panel. You need to talk to Vrbo PM support and ask for their assistance in getting them removed.

Can I use Vrbo's MarketMaker pricing service with the API?

At present, Vrbo's MarketMaker is not compatible with the API connection. This capability may be added in the future. For now, you'll need to look into the other dynamic pricing systems that integrate with OwnerRez.

Vrbo offers a 20% off discount for the first 3 bookings on a new listing. How do I turn that on?

You should note that canceled reservations are also considered when assessing eligibility. The New Listing Discount aims to generate traffic to a listing, so canceled reservations count against the total of the first three bookings.

Look for the "Actions" menu for each property on the API Integration page:

Select "New Listing Discount" to check your eligibility and/or enroll in the New Listing discount.

Vrbo New Listing Discounts will appear in your booking transactions as RENT-MERCHANDISABLE-DISCOUNT.

Vrbo New Listing Discount

If you decide you don't want that anymore, go back to the same place - there'll be a red Disable button to get rid of the discount.

Why do my nightly rates display with decimals (cents) as set in OwnerRez but my additional guest fees are displayed as rounded or whole numbers on my Vrbo listing?

Nightly rates that include decimals (cents) that are set in OwnerRez are pushed and displayed properly on Vrbo. However additional guest fees are displayed and charged as rounded or whole numbers.

My Vrbo rates are wrong, and I am receiving repeated audit error messages from Vrbo. How do I handle this?

If your Vrbo nightly rates are wrong and you are receiving repeated Vrbo audit error messages, you should contact Vrbo IPM tech support first and then contact the OwnerRez Helpdesk team.

Repeated Vrbo audit error messages indicate that your Vrbo sync may generate errors, causing nightly rates to sync inaccurately. Something as simple as an incorrectly set up surcharge can trigger a Vrbo audit error.

Why is my 3 years of availability configured in OwnerRez not displayed in my Vrbo listing, which only displays 2 years of availability?

While the Vrbo integration allows OwnerRez to pass 3 years of availability to Vrbo, Vrbo will only ever display the next 2 years' availability. This is out of OwnerRez's control.

Bookings

I canceled a booking, but it's still showing active on Vrbo

Cancellations can take a few hours (or even a full day) to pick up by the Vrbo side. It's not a push-based immediate update -- instead it's a once a day process where they pull booking status from OwnerRez.

If you're worried about double bookings, that won't happen because Vrbo checks our system live before anyone books to get the latest rates, rules and availability. But you have to wait on cancellations to get picked up.

If it's still showing as active after a couple days, reach out to the Vrbo PM team and ask them to take a look. Or send in a help ticket with the booking # we'll look to see if something is wrong in OwnerRez.

How do I get historical data for my past Vrbo bookings into OwnerRez?

The Vrbo API connection only handles information for bookings created after the API is activated. It does nothing for previous or historical bookings.

Data for your historical or pre-existing bookings can be imported using Channel Bridge.

I thought I got a booking, but there's this scary "booking request" countdown showing for it in my Vrbo control panel!

Ignore it! No, seriously - Vrbo does, and so can you. Since you're using the OwnerRez API, the countdown clock won't ding you when it runs out. Someday, the control panel will get smarter and won't show you this meaningless but frightening display.

What happens when I modify dates or charges in OwnerRez for an API booking?

This information is transmitted back to Vrbo and used to update their calendar, and the guest's status display.

If you are using a PPB payment plan, then your PPB fees for the booking will reflect any pricing changes you make in OwnerRez.
If you are using a Subscription, there will be no effect on your fees.
There is no effect on the service fees charged to the guest by Vrbo.

I want to accept same-day bookings.

Too bad - as a matter of corporate policy, Vrbo does not allow that. Your guests would have to book direct via your website, or via Airbnb, which does allow same-day bookings.

What happens to my existing and old bookings when I connect to the API?

Normally, nothing - they stay just as they were before, and will continue to be handled by Vrbo just as if you'd never hooked up the API. These are called "platform" bookings. The API handles only new bookings.

This also includes payments - Vrbo will continue to collect any payments that are still due on pre-API "platform" bookings.

Glitch Warning

We have seen situations in which Vrbo fails to collect payments due on pre-API "platform" bookings. If this happens, reach out to Vrbo tech support to confirm that they will not be collecting the payment due. Once this is confirmed, you can collect the payment due directly from the guest, using the Request Payment dropdown button on the Transaction tab of their Booking.

Because pre-API "platform" bookings are not handled via the API, you need to continue to run Channel Bridge to bring in updated data for them.

Are my guests able to book my Vrbo API-connected property with their One Key rewards?

No, Vrbo's One Key rewards are not eligible to be applied to Vrbo API-connected bookings. If your property is configured to Request to Book (RTB), users can simply agree on a price, and then once the guest requests, users can change the pricing before processing the payment.

I am now API-connected. How can I make changes to a pre-API booking?

You can't. Vrbo has to make that change. We suggest that you reach out to Vrbo PM Support.

Financial Transactions

My guests would like to use Discover cards to book via Vrbo, and my credit card processor accepts Discover, is that OK?

No, sorry! It doesn't matter that your credit card processor accepts Discover, and that you are using the Vrbo API so the credit card information is passed back to OwnerRez. Vrbo charges your guests' credit card separately for their handling fee, and since they don't do Discover, they don't let you accept it either even if you can.

The guest's credit card was declined so no payment was made, why is the booking still showing on my calendar?

When a guest's credit card is declined, we return an error message to them to give them a chance to fix the problem. The booking is held in a "pending" state for 24 hours. It does block your calendar during that time in the hopes that the guest will pay.

If the guest fixes the problem or provides another credit card, all is well and the booking proceeds normally.

If the 24 hours expires and the guest has not paid, the booking is automatically canceled. OwnerRez informs Vrbo of what happened via the API, and the booking is canceled there as well. Vrbo considers a case of nonpayment to be a "traveler cancellation" event, which does not count against you as a host.

How do Vrbo's channel fees get paid?

If you are using the Subscription listing mode, then there are two types of fees:

Your annual listing fee, which is charged by Vrbo to your credit card for each listing on its anniversary date. This fee is not visible in OwnerRez.
A booking fee, which is charged to your guest. OwnerRez will display this amount in the Charges tab of each Booking, but it is not included in the main Charges area because it's money you never see. The charge is placed on the guest's credit card by Vrbo directly; you are not responsible for or involved in this transaction.

If you are using the Pay-Per-Booking listing mode, then there are also two types of fees:

A commission percentage is charged to you per booking. This fee is charged by Vrbo and is not visible in OwnerRez. Vrbo will email you a statement and charge the credit card you have on file with them around the first of the month for any bookings that departed the previous month.
A booking fee, which is charged to your guest. OwnerRez will display this amount in the Charges tab of each Booking, but it is not included in the main Charges area because it's money you never see. The charge is placed on the guest's credit card by Vrbo directly; you are not responsible for or involved in this transaction.

Note that the API provides the amount of the booking fee that was charged to your guest, and displays this at the bottom of the Charges tab of a Booking, even though this is money you never see and aren't involved in.

The API does not provide OwnerRez the amounts charged for either your annual listing fees, or your Pay-Per-Booking commission amount, so this information is not available to OwnerRez and thus is not displayed anywhere.

See the Vrbo Pay-Per-Booking (PPB) Commission File Imports support article for more information.

Since, when using the API, you are doing your own payment processing, Vrbo will no longer charge a processing fee for your bookings.

Where are PPB (Pay Per Booking) host fees recorded?

If your Vrbo listings are billed as PPB (pay per booking) instead of an annual subscription, users can follow the instructions on the Vrbo Pay-Per-Booking (PPB) Commission File Imports support article. Currently, there is no way to have each fee automatically recorded on the booking. However, you can manually record them yourself under each booking's > Transactions tab > Fees grid (toward the bottom) so that you can track each one against a specific booking.

My Vrbo control panel says my API bookings are unpaid, but OwnerRez shows payments collected.

Yes - ignore your Vrbo control panel regarding the status of API bookings.

Messaging

Now that I'm using the API, where do my Vrbo inquiries appear in OwnerRez?

Vrbo inquiries appear in the OwnerRez Inquiries section.

Vrbo Messaging history currently works on a go-forward basis starting June 7th, 2023, meaning that only bookings made after June 7th, 2023, will have Vrbo messaging activated. Previous Vrbo conversations are being populated in a future release. Vrbo messages are not available for pre-API bookings.

Can I send quotes via messaging to guests through OwnerRez or the Vrbo App?

No, it is not possible to send quotes via messaging through OwnerRez or the Vrbo app. See the Vrbo Quotes Restrictions for more detailed information.

Can I still use the Vrbo Owner App to answer guest inquiries/questions?

Yes, the Vrbo Owner app (or the Vrbo.com inbox) can still be used to answer if you like. Your answer will sync over to OwnerRez.

Can I send attachments to Vrbo guests?

Yes. Vrbo accepts PDF, JPEG, PNG, and GIF attachments. If you attach other types of files, such as MOV, OwnerRez will insert a link to those files in the message instead of the actual file.

Why do I have duplicate Vrbo contacts?

As historical Vrbo messages are being imported into your OwnerRez account, Vrbo doesn't include any sort of unique id identifying the inquirer or tracing the inquiry through to the booking. OR does check by guest name if possible, but sometimes it's not.

Users can safely merge the guests together, allowing the message threads to combine.

My non-API connected Vrbo listing is no longer receiving Vrbo inquiries by email. How do I fix that?

If your Non-API connected Vrbo listing is no longer receiving Vrbo inquiries by email, OwnerRez recommends that users verify that the Inquiry parsing for non-API connected Vrbo identifier mapping configuration is correct.

Vrbo listings may or may not have a ha suffix, and the Vrbo identifier mapping configuration must be consistent with the Inquiry parsing. If your Vrbo URL includes the ha suffix, e.g., https://www.vrbo.com/4444444ha, the Vrbo identifier mapping configuration must include the ha suffix as well. The converse is also true.

To solve this issue, users should update their identifier mappings to include both versions, both with and without the ha suffix. Update the identifier mappings by navigating to Settings > Channels > Identifier Mapping > Current > Map Vrbo > Change Mappings. Verify that both the Vrbo listing number and the Vrbo listing number with the ha suffix are included and separated by a comma. Click Save.

To solve this issue, users should update their identifier mappings to include both versions, both with and without the ha suffix. Update the identifier mappings by navigating to Settings > Channels > Identifier Mapping > Current > Map Vrbo > Change Mappings. Verify that both the Vrbo listing number and the Vrbo listing number with the ha suffix are included and separated by a comma. Click Save.

Can I use OwnerRez in-app Vrbo messaging to communicate with my guests who booked on Expedia?

No. Even if Vrbo API-connected, the OwnerRez in-app Vrbo messaging doesn't work with guests who booked on Expedia. Vrbo suggests that you communicate with Expedia guests via email instead.

Property Settings

My properties aren't syncing, and my Vrbo integration specialist says there's an error with OwnerRez

Whenever there is an error in sync between Vrbo and OwnerRez, there will be errors recorded in their log (that is, the Vrbo server log). Their support staff is able to access this log and export the errors, usually in an Excel file. Sometimes they do this without asking when they email you or us about the problem, or when you see a problem and call them to complain.

Either way, get them to produce this logfile, and send it to us at help@ownerrez.com. We can usually analyze it, figure out where the problem is, and tell you what to do.

I updated my property photos/descriptions in OwnerRez, but my changes aren't showing up on Vrbo

Yes - unfortunately, the Vrbo API doesn't update property listings instantly. It can take as long as 48 hours before all changes are fully visible across their servers.

There is nothing OwnerRez or our staff can do to speed this up. However, the Vrbo Integration Specialists can force an immediate full update of one of your properties from their end, if you ask them to.

Some of my photos from OwnerRez aren't showing up in Vrbo, or sometimes they change even when I haven't changed them in OwnerRez.

Vrbo has a feature which allows users to archive photos. On occasion, photos will be archived without the user being aware. If your photos aren't showing properly, log in to Vrbo, go to your owner dashboard, select the property in question, choose "edit property", then select photos. At the top of the photo page, check to see if there's the word "Archive" with a number beside it. That will show you the photos which have been archived.

I want to make some Cleaning surcharges taxable, and others not.

You can't. Vrbo supports taxability for surcharges, but only on a category level, not down to an individual surcharge. So if any cleaning fees are taxable, then all will be.

I used to have a refundable damage deposit configured in Vrbo before I turned on the OwnerRez API, what happened to that?

For bookings that existed before you connected the API, your refundable damage deposit (RDD) hasn't changed. It still exists, and is handled by Vrbo, just like it was before.

For new bookings that came over the API connection, RDDs is not the best way, and your RDD configuration in Vrbo will be turned off and/or ignored. Instead, you should use security deposit holds. If you have already configured security deposit holds for your properties, they'll automatically be enforced for Vrbo bookings now too. If not, we recommend doing so.

How do I get my Refundable Damage Deposit to be displayed on Vrbo to my guests?

You can use either a Refundable Damage Deposit or a Security Deposit Hold. Since the Vrbo API sends OwnerRez the guest's credit card information, Security Deposit Holds are automated and more convenient for both you and your guests. Be sure to clearly state in your property description and Renter Agreement that a Refundable Damage Deposit or a Security Deposit Hold is required.

While not recommended by OwnerRez, it is possible to create a manual refundable damage deposit line item with the Vrbo API by creating a Surcharge with the Refundable Damage Deposit charge category. This will be detected by Vrbo, and it will be displayed to prospective guests as an RDD. We don't recommend this method as you will have to manually refund this custom sort of refundable damage deposit.

Why is my Security Deposit showing up as a Stay Collected Fee RDD?

Vrbo doesn't have the concept of a security deposit hold. The closest thing is a stay collected refundable damage deposit, so that's how we show the secdep hold. That will show on the guest invoice (so they are not surprised by the hold) and it does not show in the subtotal or payments due to the guest so it doesn't inflate the numbers.

If you want to put the information about the secdep hold and amount in your house rules instead of having it show up as a separate fee, do that and then pick the "Don't show in Vrbo guest charges" option on the Vrbo channel settings in OwnerRez.

You can find full instructions here.

The property calendar in my owner dashboard is blank/wrong!

Ignore it! When you are using the API connection, OwnerRez is your master calendar. The Vrbo control panel display is not updated correctly and is often wrong or blank.

Don't worry, the calendar display that is shown to guests will be correct. Go check it out - if you see a problem there, then it's time to let us know so we can figure out the problem.

I'm using the API, do I still have to use Channel Bridge?

Probably...

The Vrbo API only supports new bookings that are created after the API has been turned on. It does nothing for pre-existing bookings.

So, if you are creating a brand-new Vrbo account and API connection that never had any bookings before, you won't need to use Channel Bridge.

If you already had the account and bookings, though, and are now moving over to the API, you'll need to continue to run Channel Bridge regularly to keep your pre-existing bookings properly updated.

Eventually, your old bookings will have come and gone, and you'll have nothing left but API bookings. At that time, you can stop using Channel Bridge for bookings.

You'll still need to use Channel Bridge if you want to bring your guest reviews from Vrbo into OwnerRez, but that's it.

How do I pause/hide a property listing on Vrbo using the API?

It is possible to Disable or Re-enable a Property in OwnerRez but it is not possible to disable/hide a property listing on Vrbo using the OwnerRez API so users should follow the Pause/Delist Channel API Listings instructions. Users should also review Vrbo's support documentation to pause or hide a property listing.

How can I configure surcharges that will be displayed in Vrbo?

The details of how to do this are in the Vrbo section of the Rate & Fee Differences support article.

How can I control whether I display my property's exact location or not?

In the Vrbo dashboard, there is an option to "Display my property's location." Left unchecked, the location will be shown as an approximate area and possibly in the wrong time zone or city.

Do not attempt to check the box directly in Vrbo, or it will be overwritten (back to empty) every 24 hours or so when OwnerRez updates Vrbo through the API. It must be set on the OwnerRez side.

OR recommends that users ensure that their property's location is correct in OwnerRez by navigating to Settings > Channels > API Integrations > their Vrbo API Integration > Change > Options > Map Location and select Exact.

Vrbo sent me this scary email saying I was getting StayCollectedFeeSchedules errors.

These can be ignored and are normal. The Vrbo system throws a warning if the stay collected fee schedule section is empty, but there's no way to clear stay collected fees other than passing an empty stay collected fee section.

Notice that the warning only applies to the StayCollectedFees section (since you don't have any). Normally, the warning email mentions that the Lodging Rate is a success - which is what matters.

I want to use the Vrbo Boost program, can I do that?

According to Vrbo, using the API should not affect your ability to use the Boost program.

However, at the same time, there has been a known and documented Vrbo bug that can prevent your Boost opportunities from being displayed, for you to select and implement them. So, while officially Boost and API connections don't affect each other, you may find that it doesn't actually work. If you encounter this situation, please reach out to Vrbo tech support to report the problem.

I have a video of my property, how do I upload that to Vrbo?

Users can add YouTube video links to their Vrbo listing by following the instructions on this Vrbo Add or remove a video support article and should always consult Vrbo video guidelines first.

It is also possible to configure videos and other media clips in your OwnerRez Hosted Website.

How do I add the "good for families" to my Vrbo listing?

You don't - Vrbo does, based on Vrbo guests with families rating these places 4+ stars, or other Vrbo guests recommending them for families in their reviews.

Vrbo is asking me to "Complete the required content: Local laws" for my API connected Vrbo property due to an "Incomplete Status". How do I do that?

Users that have connected a property in OwnerRez to Vrbo may experience that their property is still not active due to an INCOMPLETE or inactive status on Vrbo. Users may need to complete the Local Laws section on their Vrbo dashboard. Note that Vrbo supports one registration number (see screenshots below) via API, but depending on the property location Vrbo may want additional information.

Vrbo Local Laws

Vrbo Registration information

Vrbo requires a postal code for my property, but we don't have postal codes in my property location. How do I handle that?

Some non-US locations, such as Aruba, do not have postal codes. However, Vrbo requires postal codes for all properties. Users can add 00000 to satisfy this schema requirement in their OwnerRez property location section by navigating to Property > Location > Change.

How should I proceed if Vrbo has deactivated my listing?

If Vrbo API-connected, any investigation regarding Vrbo deactivation should begin with the affected user contacting Vrbo partner support with their Account and Listing ID to request more details.

There could be any number of reasons why Vrbo deactivates a listing, including Hidden Listings. Users should receive an email from Vrbo explaining why their listing was hidden that contains a link to unhide it.

How do I add a New Listing to Vrbo from OwnerRez?

For instructions, see the Add a New Listing to Vrbo from OwnerRez section of the Adding New Properties support article.

How do I handle a "Reverse Geocode Country Failure" API error?

When setting up an API connection for the first time, or pushing a new property listing to Vrbo via the API, you can encounter cryptic errors. This error means that Vrbo's cross check on the lat/lng vs. address is throwing up an error on their side where they don't think the location coordinates on the listing -- latitude/longitude -- matches the address. This is a pretty common issue with non-US countries, but can happen anywhere if the global address database is inaccurate.

Double-check the lat/lng and address. If they're correct, contact Vrbo IPM tech support for assistance in overriding the error.

How do I handle a "Street Digit Missing" API error?

When setting up an API connection for the first time, or pushing a new property listing to Vrbo via the API, you can encounter cryptic errors. This error indicates that Vrbo thinks your address is in an incorrect format and is wrong. Double-check your address. If you're sure it's correct and complete, contact Vrbo IPM tech support for assistance in overriding the error.

How do I handle "The content of element 'address' is not complete" API error?

When setting up an API connection for the first time, or pushing a new property listing to Vrbo via the API, you can encounter cryptic errors. This error may refer to different elements of the address, like city or postal code, but they all stem from the same issue: Vrbo requires every element of the address except for Street 2 to be populated. The required fields are: Country, Street 1, City, State (or Province for non-US), Zip (or Postal Code for non-US).

OwnerRez validates US addresses but because international addresses can have different formats, we don't require a certain format for them.

However, Vrbo does require international addresses contain all of those components -- so make sure that province and postal code are populated.

Can I still use Vrbo's damage protection program if I'm Vrbo-API-connected?

No. While Vrbo may claim to offer a Damage Protection Program, it is very different from OwnerRez's Damage Protection Program.

Vrbo's Accidental Damage Protection is offered to every Vrbo guest as part of their Vrbo booking check-out process. Regardless of whether or not you are using an API connection with OwnerRez, users cannot opt in or opt out of Vrbo's Damage Protection Program as it is a policy between the guest and Vrbo, not guests and hosts. OwnerRez has no control over Vrbo's optional Damage Protection Program.

How do I change my Vrbo listing host name?

You can't change your Vrbo host name in OwnerRez but you can change your host name in Vrbo. Log into your Vrbo Owner Dashboard, navigate to Property > Edit Property > Property Details > Contact Information > and change your Vrbo host name in the Contact Information field.

I'm a co-host. Can I connect to Multiple Vrbo accounts?

Yes, it is possible to connect to multiple Vrbo accounts. However, we limit this ability on a case-by-case basis so that extra accounts aren't accidentally created. If you need two or more Vrbo accounts, contact us to enable this feature for your account.

I received an email from Vrbo about a corrupted image. How do I handle that?

We have received reports that OwnerRez users are receiving emails from Vrbo about a corrupted image. We recommend the following.

Review the Vrbo photo guidelines help article to determine which photo is corrupt and remove or correct it.
Forward Vrbo's email about the corrupted image, including as much information as you can, to OwnerRez at help@ownerrez.com.
