Preparing a Listing to be Published
Consider copying the relevant items below from a currently live listing into your new property before publishing. Please review ALL of your other property settings in Boost on your new listing(s) BEFORE publishing it:
Minimum Content Requirements: Before publishing, confirm your listing is meeting the minimum content requirements for each channel.
Headline/Title Pattern - if you are using a token to format your listing name
Terms and Conditions (Google)
Price Adjustments - If you have set a mark-up in Boost on rent and/or fees
Timezone (VRBO)

Important Note For certain channels Boost auto-truncates your headlines to meet channel requirements. For instance, all Airbnb property headlines are limited to 50 characters. |
Minimum Content Requirements:
Each OTA (Airbnb, Vrbo, etc) has unique minimum content requirements for a listing, that if they are not met, the listing will not be permitted to be live on that channel. Boost has a built in validation tool to make sure your listings are meeting these requirements before you publish them. Learn more about Boost Validation here:Getting Started
Log into your Boost account: https://boost.rezfusion.com/v2/app/choose-account and navigate to the Listings Page.
Make sure the listing is ready to be published.
