Show a marketing message such as SAVE 10% or SAVE $10/nt on participating properties in search results with Specials and Discounts feature.

Specials and Discounts are only available Rezfusion Cloud. Essential users must upgrade to use this feature.

There are two ways to create a special in your website.

  1. Properties on the website require a promo code to get the special.

    1. You will create an exact match of a promo code you setup in your software and it will be automatically applied for your guests on your website.

  2. The properties are already discounted and don’t require a promo code.

    1. You have already reduced the rates in your software, but want to communicate that saving to a guest. No promo code or savings will show on the detailed quote, but in search results guests will see that they are saving money on the booking.

This guide will show you how to setup a special in both ways.

Creating a Promo (Coupon) Code Special.

This is the best way to show a special because your guest will see savings and the booking will use an active promo code in your software.

 

Special and Discounts give you the ability to market properties with a reduced price on your website without the guest knowing a promo/coupon code.

 

Communicating to guest a property discount in search results.

 

 

 

Step 1. - Promo Code Special - Creating the special in your software (Streamline, Escapia, etc.)

Setup a promo/coupon code in your software. This promo code will automatically be applied for guest who meet the property, dates and stay rules of your promo code.

Step 2. - Promo Code Special - Name your special and select type in Cloud

Sign in to your Rezfusion Cloud website to recreate the promo code you just did in your management software. For example, if you created a promo code in Escapia, or Streamline you will recreate that same promotion in Cloud.

In your admin, go to the Specials and Discounts navigation item in the Content Manager section.

Name your special and select the type of special as the first option. This type of special will automatically apply the promo code.

Next, Select the Type of Discount

Select the type and amount of your discount. Be sure to match your software.

 

Display of Discount

Now create the text for the property flag that shows on search results.

 

 

 

Valid Booking and Stay Dates

Now you will determine when your promo code booking must be booked, and for what dates the guest can stay. This must match your settings in your software’s promo code.

 

Advanced Stay Rules

Match your stay rules from your software.

 

Participating Properties

You can select all, or specific units for participation in the special. You must specify the properties you selected in your software.

 

Select SAVE - you have created the Special, now it is time to activate it.

You can only have one active special at a time.

Testing and Confirmation of Your Special

Go to your search page and test your special. Search the dates and you should see the property flag on participating properties. Go to the property and confirm the promo code is automatically applied and the discount is showing. If not, confirm your promo code is working in your software.
