Specials & Discounts allows you to apply a promo code from your PMS or communicate already discounted rates to the guests.

 

 

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

Overview

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

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

    • 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.

    • 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.
