Channel Manager
Software that keeps your room availability and rates in sync across Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, and your own website.
A channel manager pushes your availability, rates, and restrictions to every online travel agency (OTA) at once — and pulls reservations back into one calendar.
Without one, selling on two or more channels risks double bookings. With one, your own commission-free website becomes just another (free) channel.
LodgeStatus includes channel sync plus its own zero-commission booking engine, so OTAs bring discovery while direct bookings bring margin.
