How it works

How to list your rental on multiple channels without double bookings

Multi-channel distribution is the single biggest occupancy lever a host controls — done wrong, it’s also how double bookings happen.

The manual way

Create each listing by hand, upload photos to each site, then keep every calendar in sync yourself — or bridge them with iCal feeds that update slowly enough to leave booking collisions possible on busy weekends.

The software way

A channel manager holds one master calendar and pushes availability to every OTA in near real time. This solves the sync problem, but you still write the listings, tune the content per channel and answer every channel’s guests.

The managed way

Stays does the whole loop: writes the listing once, adapts it to each channel’s rules, publishes, and runs one synced calendar — plus answers the guests that come from all of them. Your only step is approving the listing.

The honest answers.

Which booking channels do you publish to?

The leading ones — Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Expedia, Holidu and HomeToGo among them. The exact set depends on your property type and region; we publish wherever your property earns most, with one synced calendar so double bookings can't happen.

How long until my property is live and earning?

Your listing is generated within minutes of sending photos — you review and approve it the same day. Publishing then takes a few days at most, as each channel runs its own checks, so most properties are bookable within the week. For comparison, human managers advertise 10–14 days.
