What is a Channel Manager?

A Channel Manager is a powerful piece of software that provides a connection between the Property Management Software of your hotel or bed & breakfast and the websites of the OTA's (Online Travel Agency). With a Channel Manager you ensure that the availability of your rooms is visible on websites such as Booking.com, Expedia or AirBnB.

When changes are made to the Property Management System, these will be immediately visible on the websites of the desired Online Travel Agency (thanks to the hotel Channel Manager software). It is possible for hotels to work without a channel manager, but this costs a lot of time and the chance of having overbookings will increase.

If you want to make the rooms available on multiple external online platforms, then it is advised to work with a channel manager.

Benefits of a Channel Manager

Why would you choose to use a channel manager and what are the benefits? The main advantage of a Channel Management system is that the number of overbookings is minimised while online exposure is maximised.

As hoteliers we know that overbookings are one biggest annoyances in our industry. It leads to wasted time and in some cases, unhappy guests. With a channel manager, all external booking channels are linked to the PMS. So if a room (via any channel) is booked, then the room availability is immediately changed on the OTA websites.

Another advantage of a Channel Manager is that you can get a higher occupancy rate by not only placing your hotel on Booking.com, but using all the available channels. The more exposure you have, the higher your chances of getting booked, the higher your occupancy rate.

Doubts about a Channel Manager?

Are you the owner of a bed & breakfast, guesthouse or do you own a hotel? Then you can always ask yourself if you want to use a channel manager system. On the one hand you can save some monthly costs and if you do not use external booking channels you do not have to pay commission costs, but on the other hand, a channel management system is a very powerful (marketing) instrument to increase the occupancy rates of your hotel and therefore help you increase your turnover.

That is why at RoomRaccoon we therefore include a channel manager directly into our all-in-one hotel management software. Minimise the commission you pay to Booking.com or Expedia by using different room rates than on your own website. This way bookers will be encouraged to book directly through your website to claim the better rate.
