If you want to connect your Airbnb account with Lodgify, you will be connected with the most complete integration we have: the Professional integration.
⚠️ As of Jan 2021, the Airbnb Basic connection is no longer available for new users. This article is therefore for users still using the Airbnb basic integration.
Airbnb Basic will only synchronize in two-ways your availability calendar approximately every two hours. No reservation details like the guest name, the number of guests or reservation code will be imported into your Lodgify Reservation System.
If you want to remove the Airbnb basic integration, you will need to remove the iCal links from Airbnb and Lodgify.
Here are the details of the information exchanged with the Airbnb basic integration:
- The connection is via iCal, so no instant synchronization of reservations and availabilities.
- No import/export of messages.
- The number of guests is not imported from Airbnb to Lodgify (number of guests will always appear as 1).
- No guest details are imported into Lodgify.
- Total booking amount is not imported into Lodgify.
- Calendar availability is the only information exported from Lodgify to Airbnb when the Lodgify iCal is exported to Airbnb.
- 12 months of calendar availability and reservations are synchronized.
💡 Note: We recommend using the Channel Manager to import reservations from Airbnb if you use Lodgify as your central reservation system. If you are using another channel as your central reservation manager such as Airbnb or VRBO, we recommend using our Calendar Import / Export Tool to synchronize your Lodgify Calendar with Airbnb. See Export and import your calendar via iCal.
