Preparing for Channel Manager Integration
Before connecting your property to the Homeyhuts Channel Manager, there are a few things you need to prepare. This guide will help you get everything ready for a smooth and hassle-free integration process.
Preparing for Channel Manager Integration
Connecting your property to the Homeyhuts Channel Manager helps you manage your bookings, availability, and pricing from one place.
Before we begin the integration process, we recommend preparing a few things to ensure the setup is completed smoothly.
1. Share Your Current Listing Platforms
Before the integration, let our team know where your property is currently listed.
For example:
- Airbnb
- Booking.com
- MakeMyTrip
- Agoda
- Goibibo
- Other booking platforms
This helps our team understand your current setup and guide you through the right integration process.
2. Keep Your OTA Accounts Ready
During the integration process, you may need to log in to your connected booking platforms.
Please make sure you have access to the accounts for platforms such as:
- Airbnb
- Booking.com
- MakeMyTrip
- Agoda
- Other OTAs connected to your property
We recommend keeping these accounts open and ready before your integration session to avoid delays.
3. Join the Integration Session From a Laptop or Desktop
The Channel Manager integration process may require screen sharing and cannot be completed entirely from a mobile phone.
Please join your integration session using a:
💻 Laptop or
🖥️ Desktop
This will help our team guide you through the process more efficiently.
4. Keep Your Base Pricing Ready
Before connecting your property, you should have a clear idea of your:
- Base price
- Base guest count
This information helps set up your initial pricing during the integration process.
Don't worry — you can always update and adjust your pricing later through Homeyhuts.
5. Check Your Future Bookings and Blocked Dates
Before integration, please review your calendar carefully.
Make a note of any:
- Future bookings that may not be available on your connected OTAs
- Manually blocked dates
- Personal stays or unavailable dates
This is important to ensure that your availability remains accurate after the Channel Manager is connected.
Our team may guide you on any dates that need to be manually blocked again after the integration.
Important Things to Know Before Integration
📌 Your Property Setup May Be Different Across OTAs
Some booking platforms may have different rate plans, room types, or property configurations.
Please inform our team about any special setup you currently have on your OTAs so we can guide you accordingly.
For example, if your property has:
- Multiple rate plans
- Meal-inclusive pricing
- Different room or unit types
our team may need to review your setup before proceeding with the integration.

To avoid sync issues, it is important to follow the recommended process for managing your connected property after integration.
