New Web Tech for Vacation Rental Owners
Lodgify and Airbnb have recently entered into a partnership which will allow for a seamless two-way service between the two vacation-rental platforms, using a full API integration.
Lodgify members can now use the company’s browser-based vacation-rental software solution to manage every aspect of their properties, directly from their Lodgify website. The new partnership creates a conduit through which all property-related information, including booking details, rate information, lodging availability, and much more, is automatically synchronized between the two services in real time.
Messages, reviews, and updates to the property are also updated on both services as they occur. In addition, Lodgify users can now advertise their listings and properties on Airbnb in a matter of a few simple clicks.
Lodgify is a web-based vacation rental platform that facilitates the process of showcasing available properties in a private web space. Users of the platform can effortlessly integrate all or the information associated with their properties with several travel agencies at the same time while allowing users to manage changes to the property listings all from one place.

The development is said to be one of the most notable steps in the company’s process of becoming a leader in multi-channel vacation-rental platforms.
The two-way, API synchronization offered by the new partnership allows users to keep both their Lodgify and Airbnb listings up to date when changes occur. When bookings are made on either platform, availability information is updated on both platforms within seconds. According to Klett, the goal of Lodgify is to help vacation-rental owners expand their horizons by increasing their visibility in the marketplace.
When speaking about the benefits that the new partnership will bring to both current and new users of the Lodgify platform, Klett pointed out that when new users sign up with the Lodgify platform they are able to get started with their business immediately. Beyond that, users are also able to put their listings on popular networks like Airbnb and Booking.com which reaches millions of customers in a matter of minutes.
