Why do I need to provide a breakdown of taxes & fees from my base rate?
On some domains your base rate, minus taxes & fees, will be shown. If your base rate includes taxes & fees, your property may appear more expensive when compared to competitors. If you’re not currently providing a breakdown of taxes & fees to your connectivity partner, you can provide an estimate through instant booking set up or in the “Settings” tab of the instant booking dashboard.
What is the number of travelers’ views for my hotel property listing?
The traveler views for you hotel property listing will be based on the type of commission model you select. If “Book on TripAdvisor” is displayed 100 times for your property and you’ve signed up at a 15% commission, your rates and availability will show at least 50 times out of the 100. At the 12% commission, your rates and availability will show at least 25 times.
