Smart Pricing not so smart

[Luis3279]

I dexided to leave the calendar open trusting the smart pricing, a minimum and a maximum

Almost imediately i got a booking for 4 days in New Years Eve (dec 30/31 jan 1/2)

At the minimum price!!!!

When usualky prices are 5 times more!!

What the #@$@#

Cant Airbnb realize New Year Eve is high season???

Very upset about this

So learned lesson here: do not trust Smart Pricing.

BTW You can see on you calender what prices are set by Smart Pricing, so should not be a suprise.

I use Smart pricing,but with a very  small bandwit,then it works fine.

I learned something. I didn’t know you can set the “smart” range.  Thanks

I personally don't use Smart Pricing - but if you do want to continue to use it here are a few links that may help.
