Don't push "Public name" of master listing to Booking titles of sub-units if they are different Property IDs
I have different property IDs for master and sub-units, but still want to keep their master-sub relation in Hostfully. It would be great if we don't push Public name of the master listing as property title of my sub-units when they are connected in different property IDs.

Proper Handling of GST-Inclusive VRBO Discounts to Ensure Accurate Tax Reporting
Description:
Currently, VRBO sends a discount value (e.g., $153.12 New VRBO Discount) as a GST-inclusive figure. Because it's listed under fees without any itemized GST breakdown, this results in tax miscalculations on our end.
Example:
The $153.12 discount actually includes:
$133.15 rent discount
$19.97 GST discount
Since this breakdown isn’t provided via XML, and Hostfully treats the entire amount as a non-taxable discount, my reported tax figures end up being incorrect. This requires manual adjustments, which are not scalable and introduce the risk of error.1 vote -

Rate multiplier incorrectly applying to all past and future Airbnb bookings
When we import Airbnb leads, the base rent is calculated so that base rent + rate multiplier equals the rent total from Airbnb.
True, we could apply this only to future leads, not past leads, but I don’t see why this would cause an issue to this PM since the total rent is the same.
It can be treated as a feature request, UV

Custom cancellation policy for Booking.com
We use Stripe. Booking.com (BDC) payment timeline depends on the cancellation policy. I want to add "Custom" cancellation policy as an option for BDC to allow us to withhold payment processing fees for cancellations. Without this, we don't have a way to withhold payment processing fees and must refund them.
6 votesThe cancellation policy for BCOM is currently set on the channel detail page for all properties. You will soon be able to set it on the property detail page, thus choosing a potentially different cancellation policy for each property.

Use Vrbo as a Merchant of Record
Using a channel manager has made things for difficult for me. I now have to handle security deposits, rejected payments, credit card fraud issues, collect- file - pay occupancy tax etc. All this was done by VRBO before I had a channel manager. Can you please get an arrangement with VRBO like you do with Airbnb that they will still provide those services even though we are using you.
10 votesWe are currently looking into this exact implementation where Vrbo will remain the merchant of record for connected PMs. Not that this work has a dependency on Vrbo and the APIs they are planning to provide in 2024 to support this.

Keep the public name as it is on Booking.com
I want to have Booking.com listing name the same as my public name. At the moment, it is being capitalized the first letter in each word.

VRBO Custom Rules
Allow setting custom rules on VRBO. Currently no custom rule settings push to the VRBO listing and if rules are entered on VRBO instead, Hostfully overrides the changes and deletes them. VRBO is now charging hosts that cancel bookings due to rule or local regulation violations and we cannot enforce rules that are not communicated to guests. We have incurred $400 in fees this week due to this issue.

Support AIR_CONDITION_WINDOW for HVMB
Support more amenity mapping for Marriott AC
Currently, AC in Hostfully is mapped to AIR_CONDITION, which is translated into "Air Conditioning Central" on Marriott. (which all of their properties feature centralized air conditioning)
However, this may not be correct for all PMs, as they can also have other type of AC, like window or standalone AC, of mapping type AIRCONDITIONWINDOW.
In order to support this, Hostfully should have another mapping type to Marriott AIRCONDITIONWINDOW.

Capture Guest physical address during booking process to add to profile

Integrate directly with Expedia
I'd like to integrate directly with Expedia from Hostfully to ensure my properties are listed there and not be charged commission through channel partners.
I understand some properties are distributed to Expedia if I am connected to Vrbo, though Vrbo can't guarantee that will happen and we can't request it. I can connect to Expedia through channel management partners, but they charge an extra commission. A direct connection would guarantee I am listed on that channel and save listings expenses.

Ability to sync Master unit to Booking.com room level directly, without breaking Master-Sub setup
As a PM with Master-Sub setup, when I want to sync Master unit directly to Booking.com room level (instead of hotel level and no room), I don't need to
- Break current Master - Sub setup on Hostfully
- Sync Master (now standalone) to Booking.com room
- Set up Master - Sub again on Hostfully.Able to sync Master unit directly to Booking.cm room would be helpful to avoid disconnection.

Separate rental agreements per channel
Reasoning is the cancellation policies are so limited with Airbnb that I really only want to extend the cancellation policy that Airbnb has only to those who discover us through Airbnb. With direct bookings I would prefer what we have listed in our current rentals agreements.

Auto-retry importing Booking.com reservations when there is an issue with Booking.com sync job
We discovered that a Booking.com reservation does not appear in Hostfully, so the calendar is not blocked accordingly and CS has to manually import it into the system. This occurred due to an intermittent issue with the Booking.com sync job, likely caused by the performance issue we had.
It would be more helpful and minimize the risk of double bookings if the system automatically retries importing Booking.com reservations when there is an issue with the Booking.com sync job.

Support Booking.com Damage program so BDC will collect SD via PBB
At the moment, when we select the "Damage policy options" on Booking.com Extranet, upon next sync, the system was changed and it couldn't have BDC collect SD via PBB.
I want the option "I want to set up a damage programme that Booking.com will facilitate for me" on "Damage policy options" sticks.

Display "Set Taxation" option when pushing data from Hostfully to create new BDC listings
I got this error when trying to create new BDC listings from Hostfully. The listings are in France:
TPAExtensions/PropertyTaxInfo/PropertyRegisteredInVcs is mandatory for this location(#321) - TPAExtensions/PropertyTaxInfo/PropertyHasVat is mandatory for this location(#321) - TPA_Extensions/PropertyTaxInfo/PropertyDeclaresRevenue is mandatory for this location(#321)
The option to Set Taxation is only visible for connected listing. Thus, to solve this, I have to create a hotel from BDC first before connecting it to Hostfully.
