Setting Airbnb discounts using Property Management Software

[Damon129]

Hi, we operate several properties through a Property Management Software system but I cant seem to be able to set weekly or monthly discounted rates either on the Property Software or Airbnb website. Just wondering if anyone can help? Thanks

What is the name of the PMS you are using?

Are you also using a Dynamic Pricing Software?

Hi Joan, thank you for coming back. Im using a PMS called Evivvo.

No im not using Dynamic Pricing Software

Ensure you don't have Smart Pricing on in Airbnb (you probably don't).

Ensure you don't have any Rule Sets currently in place on your Airbnb calendar.

Check Your PMS Sync Settings. You might need to "sync everything" instead of just  "sync pricing and availability"

If you’re using a Property Management Software (PMS), most systems allow setting weekly or monthly discounts, but the settings can sometimes be hidden under “Pricing” or “Rate Rules.” On Airbnb, you can also set these directly by going to Pricing then Discounts in your listing settings.

A few tips:

• Make sure your PMS is fully synced with Airbnb some PMS systems don’t push long-term discount rules automatically.

• Check if your listing has any existing promotion rules that might override new discounts.

• If all else fails, you may need to set the discounts manually on Airbnb or contact your PMS support for guidance.

Thank you Ethan. I have managed to set a discount for other OTAs such as Booking.com through my PMS, im just having issues with Airbnb.

The PMS is referring me to Airbnb to set the discounts. I've tried setting manually in Airbnb but im unable, the pricing is locked out with a message stating I can only alter pricing via the PMS
