Benefits of connecting to Homeaway via Uplisting as an official partner

Uplisting is an official Homeaway Partner on the latest Price Consistency integration (not all channel managers are). This means your property is eligible for distribution to the 750 million travellers visiting to the Expedia Group family of sites each month. These include Expedia, trivago, VRBO, and more.

There are a number of other benefits in listing your properties with Uplisting as an official integrated Homeaway partner:

1. Distribution on the entire Expedia network (e.g trivago) - access to 750 million* travellers per month
   Your Homeaway listings can be distributed to all Expedia brands like Expedia.com, trivago, Hotels.com, ebookers and more. This is only possible for officially integrated partner listings.

2. Homeaway listings created automatically
   Uplisting creates your Homeaway listings for you with the click of a button. You can also connect to existing Homeway listings.

3. All guest communications in one central place
   Your Uplisting Inbox automatically works for Homeaway bookings, as do your automated messages.

4. Automatic and instant data sync
   Realtime syncing of availability, bookings, rates and messages. If you use a dynamic pricing solution (like Pricelabs) you can sync those prices to Homeaway and include any commission markup you'd like.

5. Get paid right away
   Process traveler payments at the point of booking with our Stripe integration
