Weekly and Monthly discount

Weekly and Monthly Discounts

The Weekly and Monthly Discounts customizations are currently only available with select integrations. You can check our list of supported integrations with this feature below.
Discounts are a key part of any rental property's price strategy, especially for those looking to extend their visitors' stays. A "Weekly and Monthly Discount"  is a frequent name for this arrangement.

As a revenue management tool, you can now consolidate your discounting into one platform since the working idea here is that, when set in PriceLabs,  we transmit these discounts to the PMS when generating a booking quote for stays of this duration (if the weekly and monthly duration are triggered when a guest is booking)

How do these discounts work?

Let's say someone has set a 20% monthly discount, we will send the usual daily rates to your connected platform and if you get any bookings with a duration of equal to or more than 30 days, a 20% discount will apply to the total amount of the daily rates. This can lead to an average daily rate after the discount is less than their minimum price in PriceLabs.
Reason: The discounts are applied on top of daily rates, and the net price can be lower than minimum

It totally depends on PMS how they use our weekly monthly discounts /discounted rates. For Tokeet as example, we push weekly & month discounted prices and Tokeet prorate this price for a booking greater than 7 or 30 days.

  1. There are no default value set for these discounts.

FAQs:
1) What is the difference between "Yes" & "Yes - set in PriceLabs otherwise PriceLabs will overwrite?
Answer: This means that for PMS with a note of "set in PriceLabs otherwise, PriceLabs will overwrite," it is highly recommended that you set them up in the PriceLabs platform to reduce or minimize error on this discounting.

2) What if my PMS or OTA is not listed above?
Answer: Please set it up on your PMS or your listing channel.

The details on the above table may change at any time, as we will be updating for more PMSs in the coming months. If you don't see your PMS on the list o would like to confirm the information - please reach out to us at support@pricelabs.co.
