price on my i-phone shows a different amount to that on my desk top for the same period

I have set my pricing for my B&B at $120.  When I log out of my account and browse the site I can see the price on my desktop shows $100(total) per nightand the price on my i-phone shows $121 (total) for the same dates.  None of them add up to $120 but what really confuses me is that browsing for the same time block shows two different prices depending on what device I am on.  Help?!

Jenny,
That is very strange for sure. Have you checked all your pricing actions so they match, for example, do you have discount for weekly or monthly stay. Do your i-phone calendar pricing match your base pricing on desktop calendar? Go through all your manually set pricing venues and reconcile them. Then check your iPhone and different computers to see if match.

I have exactly the same issue. The list price per night is different on my iPhone compared to my MacBook. My iPhone 6 shows an earlier price while my MacBook shows the updated price. Not sure what potential customers are seeing. Airbnb is buggy

This is also happening to me trying to reserve a place with airbnb. My iPhone gives me a different price than my desktop. I reserved a room on my desktop and it was $38 more than on my iPhone. Didn't notice yntil after I booked 😕

I noticed a higher price on the iphone as well or maybe the ipad. For my own listing, without a price change gor a while. I see 50 in a list of results instead of 43, but a guest who booked paid 43 plus taxes and service fee. Looks like the result list is showing the final price, 50, whilst my price is 43.

I have the same problem when comparing the exact same house on my iPad , then later with my laptop. Quite a big discrepancy! All criteria is the same....number of nights, people and dates! It’s about 25% more on my iPad per night!! Why is this So?

Ive had the exact same problem if I use the app as opposed to Airbnb.com. The .com price was higher but so was everybody else's that I compared. The weird thing was the price was a number I've never used,,,,some random dollar amount. When I  went to book dates the price was correct. I called Airbnb, they said they'd work on it and after a time it's now accurate.

Has anyone found a solution for this?!  The same thing happening to me.  One price is showing on my desktop at work and my MacBook is showing a different price (Occupation Fee included).  Why does it do that?
