Important to note:

How booking fees work with Holidu:

  1. Holidu doesn’t support booking fees based on both guest threshold and length threshold.
  2. Holidu supports booking fees and taxes in Percentage only for the 'per stay modality'. Other types i.e. Per Person, Per Night, and Per Person/Per Night are not supported.
  3. Holidu also doesn’t support a day of the week, refundable, and taxable fields.

Holidu Notes:

  1. For Holidu, the additional guest fee doesn't apply to children.
  2. If we specify booking fees and taxes in percentage from .5 and higher, Holidu rounds off it and performs calculations on basis of the next higher integer.
  3. We push availability to Holidu in the following cases:

When a rental is updated in Tokeet.

Rates/Availability is updated in Tokeet.

If a booking is created or cancelled.

If you want to delete a listing from Holidu, please do it from Tokeet via the channel connections page.
