Bookster channel manager partner of TripAdvisor

New Update: Premium Partner

June 2021: We're delighted to announce that Bookster has been selected as Premium Partner of TripAdvisor Rentals. 

This is the most advanced level of connectivity with TripAdvisor Rentals, thanks to our commitment to building a strong content API, reservation export, and real-time rates.

This partnership is part of our commitment to supporting property managers work easily with channels.

TripAdvisor Content Sync with Bookster

Our Channel Manager team have been working flat out to provide the new direct Content Sync Connection with global channel, TripAdvisor. 

This connection is live and available for holiday lettings agencies using our Holiday Rentals Management System who manage 15 properties or more. 

How will your self-catering business benefit?

Place your holiday let properties onto TripAdvisor and its partners and be seen by millions of potential guests from across the globe! 

As the synchronisation is a full direct API connection, you will save hours updating property data and rates in different places.

Bookster will instantly push that data to TripAdvisor, leaving you more time to focus on other aspects of your self-catering business.

How does Bookster Channel Manager work with TripAdvisor? 

We have worked with TripAdvisor to produce a slick connection process, and we’ll be on-hand to support you along the way. 

Once you request to work with TripAdvisor, you’ll be directed to create an account with them and they will support your connection process. 

We’ll make the connection behind the scenes, and send your property data, rates, photos and availability to TripAdvisor, automatically creating your listings on your behalf.

You’ll maintain full control of your property rates and listings information, which you can update in Bookster, and we’ll push to TripAdvisor in real time. 

Bookings will all be sent directly back into your Bookster bookings calendar, where you can track and manage the bookings process.

Are all Channel Managers the same?

Not at all!

Every connection to a channel can be different, with different data fields synchronised - depending on the capabilities of the Holiday Rental Channel Manager employees, and their ongoing commitment to maintaining the service. 

Bookster works hard to ensure that the 2-way XML connections with its channels are developed to the highest possible standards, and maintained.

We do this by keeping regular contact with the channels and their technicians, inviting them to our Holiday Rental Events, and making updates to the API connection when needed. 

Our goal is that our holiday lettings property managers get the optimum bookings using our TripAdvisor connection.
