We’ve just upgraded our overbooking functionality to match industry standards, giving you the perfect balance between aggressive revenue capture and risk mitigation!

You can now set a single daily limit for total overbookings across the house or service level. Once that number is reached (including physical inventory and availability adjustments), the system automatically closes the hotel for that day.

The Bottom Line: You can now safely push individual room-type overbookings to the limit to drive revenue, knowing this new "safety layer" will automatically cap your total property risk and prevent costly guest relocations.

We are looking for early adopters to try this and feedback us about what works and doesn’t before a full launch later next month.

Hello!

Will this also work with channel managers? So will channel manager connections see the caped availability (and increased room type availability where set to accept overbookings)?
