Changing fees when connected to a channel manager

Hi, Im trying to change the fee changed per additional guest but there appears no edit button on any of the available fees.  Im using a channel manager so maybe its cause of that?  How to make changes??

You need to use the software of the channel manager to edit.

nope, doesnt work like that, the channel manager sends through its price but airbnb has to have it already set for the additional person charge.  The channel manager can have the price set for various people but airbnb only accepts one price from what I can see, then adds the additional charge per person in airbnb

@Emiel1 is right. Fees can be only changed in Channel Manager's settings if you use one.IMG_20220427_233317.jpg

mmmmm not the way I see it, the channel manager I have sends a set price and then airbnb follows you set with regards to extra people.  I know this because I have 2 separate listings, one with an increase for guests and one without.  The same price is being sent to both listings. 

 

The one with the increase per guest set has a base rate of say $100 for 1 or 2 and $150 for 3 guests.  The one with NO increase per guest set has a price of $100 for 1, 2 or 3 people.  The base price gets sent for the room and airbnb follows the rules you have set, just seems that you cant change those rules after the channel manager has been added.

 

Now other channel managers might be different, and please tell me if they are, but in this case this is how it seems to be working.
