Channel Manager FAQs
How does Channel Manager work?
Simply put, Channel Manager pushes and pulls updates to and from all connected distribution channels. The result? Automatically synchronized settings and no more double bookings!
What settings can I manage with Channel Manager?
From a central dashboard, Channel Manager lets you manage your accommodation types, rate plans, prices, restrictions, promotions, availability, closed periods and guest payments on different OTAs, GDSs and metasearch engines.
How can I automate my pricing on multiple channels?
Channel Manager seamlessly integrates with Pricing Manager, so AI-driven price recommendations and promotional strategies can be pushed automatically to all your connected channels.
How does automated dynamic pricing & promotion work?
Lighthouse’s Pricing Manager leverages AI and constantly analyzes trusted market data to determine optimal prices and promotions every hour for the next 365 days. The dynamic pricing recommendations are based on market demand, events, competitor pricing, your real-time performance, as well as the rules you’ve defined in your personal settings.
How does Channel Manager boost my online visibility?
Channel Manager enables you to maximize your property’s exposure by distributing your listings across over 200 global booking sites as well as niche OTAs to reach a broader audience. Effortlessly promote your property on more channels without increasing your workload and enjoy a higher ranking on these major platforms thanks to our premium partnerships with Booking.com and Expedia.
Which channels can I connect to the Channel Manager?
You can choose from over 200 channels, ranging from the biggest OTAs to local or niche booking sites. We keep a close eye on the OTA market and clients’ needs in order to build new integrations.
Can I use a PMS instead of a Channel Manager?
While a PMS may offer some distribution options, we always recommend using Channel Manager. Channel Manager retrieves and sends availability updates considerably faster (in real time) and allows for much more efficient management of room types, rate plans, packages, promotions and more.
Does Channel Manager work with my Booking Engine?
We have a Booking Engine that seamlessly integrates with Channel Manager. Adding it to your website is easy & straightforward. Our Booking Engine comes with a price comparison widget and clickable reservation buttons that adapt to any website layout, ensuring a consistent and mobile-friendly user interface.
