Hi - would love a clear explanation of the special offer pricing as it makes no sense to me at the moment 😞
When I enter my 'special offer' for the guest (i.e. the subtotal that includes any cleaning or extra guest fees) it calculates that I will earn more than my guest will pay (i.e. their price per night is lower than the one I based the special offer on) - how is this possible??!
e.g. my listing price was $300/night, a guest has made an enquiry for 18 nights. I want to do a 'special offer' of $240/night for the 18 nights so it calculates
$240 AUD x 18 nights$4320 AUD
Service fee -$130 AUD
You will earn $4190 AUD
But at the same time it outlines that my guest will pay the following:
$187 x 18 nights $3362
Service fee $212
Your guest will pay $3574
Where did the $187/night come from and who pays me the difference if it's not the guest?!!
I haven't offered any weekly discounts in my listing but I have offered a 25% discount per month but as the request is only for 18 nights I assumed that this 25% discount doesn't kick in...am I right or is this what is causing the dicounted nightly rate for my guest? Even so, this still doesn't explain why the special offer tab states that I will receive a $$ amount higher than the amount the guest will pay??!
I don't want to send them the special offer until I'm 100% clear on what exactly I will be receiving but at the moment I'm just left feeling completely confused!
Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to easily explain what's going on! 🙂
Cheers!
