Bookster PMS partner of Booking.com

Booking.com and Bookster holiday rental software

In 2017, we announced that Bookster PMS is a Premier Partner of Booking.com.

This channel manager partnership reflects the commitment that Bookster has shown within the industry and the importance we place on the growth of profitable revenue for our clients. 

In 2019 we developed the connection further to automatically synchronise even more of the Property Listing information. 

Who is Booking.com

Starting in 1996 in the Netherlands, it has grown enormously over the years to be one of the largest accommodation websites on the planet.

Booking.com's reputation is excellent, which is why more than 1 million people recently said they'd recommend Booking.com to their family and friends.

Importantly, this strength and reputation in the market mean it drives a significant amount of revenue for holiday rentals across the world. Indeed according to figures from 2018, more than 1,550,000 room nights are reserved on their platform.

Booking.com attract both leisure travellers and business travellers which opens the opportunities for holiday rental agencies looking to attract different markets during the year.

It is particularly strong at filling gaps in the shoulder periods, with an extensive number of tools available to help achieve that and to increase the bookings receive.  

Join Booking.com in the Channel Manager

With any paid Bookster account, you can easily synchronise your properties with Booking.com or any of our other great Channels within Bookster.

Our team is on hand to answer any questions on each Channel and will support you through this process.
