      What are Special discounts?


      Special discounts are deals that offer exclusive benefits and discounts for your guests when they search for the listings on particular sales channels like Airbnb, Agoda, Booking.com, and Expedia.

       


      There are several benefits of adding special discounts to your listing

      • Increase listing visibility on the sales channel
      • Increase your bookings(upto 3x) and listing revenue (upto 2x)
      • Attract more customers (upto 2x repeat customers) 
      • Increase customer satisfaction

      Frequently Asked Questions


      • Do we stack all discounts? 

      No, we do not stack any discounts. We currently send all discounts set in YR to Expedia and they decide how to stack these discounts. Different channels have different ways of stacking. For example - a sales channel will sum up the percentage of all discounts while another sales channel will apply the first discount followed by the second discount and so on. Hence, it's up to the sales channel to decide how they stack discounts. 

       

      • Why don’t we support other channels?

      We are currently only supporting Airbnb, Agoda, Booking.com, and Expedia. We will add other channels soon.
