How multi-channel distribution works beyond Airbnb

Airbnb is one channel among many. This guide explains how distributing a property across several booking sources works, and why the right mix depends on the property.

More than one channel

Suitable properties are distributed across more than 20 major, specialist and direct booking sources, reaching leisure, corporate, contractor, relocation and premium travel demand rather than only weekend leisure.

One synchronised calendar

Distribution and booking coordination are managed through one synchronised calendar, so availability stays consistent across every channel a property is listed on.

Direct booking where suitable

Direct booking forms part of the approach alongside major and specialist channels, where it suits the property.

Why the mix is set per property

A city apartment aimed at corporate stays and a family home aimed at leisure guests need different channels. Distribution is chosen to match the property rather than applied as a template.
