Monthly price for specific month

[Simone1245]

Dear community members & AirBnb,

I understand the option to select a specific price for a specific month has been removed recently.

Due to the heavy seasonality price differences in my area the monthly discount option doesn't really do the job. For the low season I always selected a fixed monthly price and because of this managed to get extra bookings in the low season. 

For example; high season about 200 per night per night mostly fully booked, but while low season I only get bookings if I lower to a fixed price of 1600 for the whole month.

Anyone has some tips or ideas?

Please AirBnb bring back the fixed price per specific month option.

Thanks,

Simone

Hi @Simone1245 

Yes, sadly Airbnb removed the Custom Monthly Pricing feature with the Summer 2023 Release. The only work around is to turn on Pro Tools and use a Rule set to set custom monthly pricing for specific dates:

I've been informed that we can only have one rule set now by AirBnB support. In addition, I use Pricelabs and if I have a rule-set, pricelabs will not work and stops the sync.  If anyone has figured out how to use Pricelabs and rule-sets to set truely seasonal prices, I'd be interested to know how.  Pricelabs suggested I buy another software like Guesty but this seems insane.  Why can't I do everything in AirBnB like I used to be able to do.

Worst decision by airbnb on monthly bookings, it makes no sense.  Someone in corporate must have been drunk when they took this feature away.
