Last Minute Discount

One of my listings comes up with tips on the side and sometimes I get offered to advertise a last minute deal at 10% off for the following week. 

 

The other listing doesnt come up with these tip suggestions?

Hello @Carolyn35 ,

Then you probably have different Airbnb website in New Zealand then the European one...

Hi Sonya

 

I had the same thing happen to one of my listings awhile back and I wanted to duplicate the strategy for another one of my listings for a new range of dates.... any feedback on how to do this would be very helpful AirBnB community or tech support

Hi,

Any update regarding the last minute discount?

Can do it on 1 of my listings and cannot on the other one...

Thanks

  I found that if you use smart pricing then last minute discount does not come up as a option under pricing.  But if you do a pull down then you can?? I checked my prices and last minute pricing was not applied even though I had it for last minute discount

Even with smart pricing off I don't have the option. regional settings for hosts is dumb

Have you switched on the professional hosting tools,  go to your account settings and click "Settings" to switch it on.

No had no clue they were there. Single most helpful thing I've ever read on these threads!

AirBnB - please respond to the "Last Minute Deal" request. It would be the best option for off season bookings.

@Carolyn35 ,

Last minute discounts is a setting in all my listings (section "pricing"). Also weekly, monthly and "early bird"  discounts are there.

Thanks for your quick response Emiel. I've looked in there and can't find anything. There are weekly & monthly discounts -but nothing for last minute deals.

Thanks for that. I thought having Smart Pricing on may affect it. Took it off and still can't see the options you have. Shame they don't offer all AirBnB Hosts the same options. 😞

Yes, Smart Pricing must be off, otherwise the extra discount options are not shown (I just tested it).

Airbnb websites are not allways the same in different parts of the world. Maybe you will have the extra discount options also in near future :>)

Best regards, Emiel

Oh Wow!

I would love those features!! i don't have them as well and had been looking for them... Airbnb please hear the community... Thx for sharing.

@Emiel1   I turned smart pricing off and still do not have the discount options that you have.

 

@Jan398I would love that option too but with 'smart pricing' turned on - when I turned smart pricing off as an experiment to see if the early-bird - last-minute  discounts appeared, a slew of negatives appeared that I had to check off before I could confirm 'off' saying that I understood  that turning 'smart pricing' off would negatively impact my listing!
