Direct Booking Tools Integration: Viewing Price Quote Data in PriceLabs

This is still in beta and not available to all users. All users who join the beta testing group must have an active subscription to Direct Booking Tools. To join the beta testing group, please reach out to support@pricelabs.co.

PriceLabs can now use data from your own booking site to help you make more informed and data-driven decisions about your pricing. To participate in the beta program users must have an active subscription to both PriceLabs and Direct Booking Tools.

For customers utilizing PriceLabs and Direct Booking Tools, we are implementing the ability to view your price quote data directly within the PriceLabs platform. This integration is a significant step toward streamlining your workflow by reducing the need to switch between multiple products, and will allow you to view more property-level trends directly on PriceLabs. 

To join the beta testing group: If you are an eligible user and wish to start using this feature, please contact our support team at support@pricelabs.co or through the chat feature in your PriceLabs account and reference the Direct Booking Tools Integration. 

When reaching out to PriceLabs, include the following information:

1. The company name registered with Direct Booking Tools.
2. The URL associated with your Direct Booking website.
3. The email address you use for your PriceLabs account if it’s not the email you send from. 
4. The PriceLabs support team will take over from there to establish the necessary integration between your accounts.

Once the connection is successfully established and your quote data is visible for your listings, you will receive a notification from our support team confirming the enablement. 

At this time, PriceLabs is configured to display price quote data, or the number of quotes for a property based on a given arrival date, sourced from Direct Booking Tools within the Listing Neighborhood Data, listing Pricing Calendar, and the Multi Calendar. 

Your quote data will appear in the Listing Neighborhood Data allowing you to see how much booking interest each property is getting for each date alongside your current rates and your hyper local market occupancy and pricing trends. 

While adjusting the colors of your listing calendar or Multi Calendar from the calendar settings menu will give you an at-a-glance view of quote trends for each property or several properties at once.

Currently your quote data will not impact the pricing recommendations, but we are continually evaluating and planning for future enhancements, additional features and data display locations may become available in the future.

If you are not currently a customer of Direct Booking Tools or if you are an existing customer who wishes to learn more about this integration or manage your current account, you can reach out to their team at help@bookinginsights.com or book a demo here. 

New Customers: When signing up for Direct Booking Tools, new customers will have the option to specify the level of data integration they require:

1. Full suite of Direct Booking Tools: This option provides the most comprehensive data set and includes access to all available site widgets with the PriceLabs API included.
2. Quote Data Only on PriceLabs: This option is for users who primarily need their quote data to appear exclusively within the PriceLabs interface for pricing decision support.

When reaching out to Direct Booking Tools please specify the following in your request:

1. Company name
2. Primary contact name and email
3. Whether you are an existing DBT customer or new to DBT
4. Your PriceLabs account email
5. Your website URL
6.  Approximate property count to be included
7. Whether you want API-only access or want to review the full DBT suite
