# Using Request to Book ( Website Builder Plus Plan)

# Using Request to Book (Website Builder Plus Plan)

With Website Builder's **Plus** plan, you can offer **Request to Book** as an alternative to Instant Book, just like on Airbnb.

## How it works 
* Guests submit a request with their details and payment card
* The card is securely saved but not charged
* You review the request and accept or decline it
* Payment is only taken if you accept

## Enabling Request to Book on a listing - Plus plan
| The default listing setting is 'Instant Book'. You can mix booking types across your portfolio. For example, Instant Book for most properties and Request to Book for your highest-value listings

1. On your Uplisting account, click on the [**Direct**](https://app.uplisting.io/direct/listings) tab on the left panel
2. Click on **Individual listings**
3. From the 'Individual listings' window, click on the **Settings** button next to the listing you want to enable **Request to Book**
4. Under **'Booking Types'** select **'Request to Book'.**

5. A confirmation prompt will appear, advising that switching to Request to Book will delist the listing from Google Vacation Rentals, as Google requires channel manager-connected listings to use Instant Book. See this guide on [Instant Book Requirement for Google listings](https://support.uplisting.io/en/article/how-do-i-turn-off-instant-book-for-google-vacation-rentals-w4i1g8/)

6. You can confirm the switch by slecting the '**Switch off Instant Book** ' button

The listing will automatically switched to **Request to book**. You can always switch it back to **Instant Book,** as needed.
