Booking Rules

The "Booking Type" defines the way online bookings on your website are completed.

• Auto confirmed: Bookings from your website are automatically confirmed without security.
• Confirmed with deposit collection: Guests can make a confirmed booking when they complete a payment through one of the integrated payment gateways. To use this function you need an account with the payment gateway and connect it in SETTINGS->PAYMENTS FROM GUESTS->PAYMENT GATEWAYS.
• Confirmed with credit card: Guests can only book if they leave their credit card details. Credit card details are securely collected but the card is not automatically charged.
• Request: Guests can only request to book. You confirm or decline each booking manually.
• Request with credit card: Guests can only request to book and are required to leave their credit card details. You confirm or decline each booking manually. Credit card details are securely collected but the card is not automatically charged.
• Black out period: If you want to close your property and not accept new bookings for a certain period (for example if you are closed for the season) you can set a blackout.

If you made changes click on the "Save" button to save your changes.

If you do not collect a payment or credit card details at the time of the booking you can set up payment requests or credit card requests to send to the guest later. Check the support wiki for instructions.
