Hello,
is there a way to hide the room rate on the reservation confirmation when the guest has made their booking through an OTA that will pay for the room with a VCC? Our issue is with Expedia bookings that are paid with Expedia VCC; and we receive Expedia reservations through iHotelier channel manager.
I know that there is a general setting to exclude reservation confirmation sending for bookings through a channel manager, and that the email editor has a condition ‘Unless there is a travel agency’ available, and that by configuring billing automation the room charges can be directed to the OTA.
- We do want to send the reservation confirmation to the guests booking through an OTA
- We would like exclude specific OTA bookings, like Expedia channel-collect bookings, from having the room rate displayed.
- I believe - I do NOT know as I haven’t tested this - the billing automation cannot be modified so that the room charges are routed to the OTA as this would disable the automated VCC payment handling: the VCC information is associated with the customer, not the OTA.
I do not know of any email editor condition that would be based on rate or rate category but this could be a solution were such a condition in existence.
Thanks in advance!
MattiM.
