How does GoDirect work?
This is how you can create your own reservation system.
1
Your property will get a booking link which is automatically generated from the info and photos you add during registration.
E.g.: booking.godirect.website/demo-lodge. It’s your property’s own booking website. You can customize the URL later in Settings.
2
You can promote your property by sharing the booking link on your own channels
Focus on promoting your property on Facebook, Instagram or even TikTok. Create content and drive traffic to your channels. Once you find out what works best for you, traffic and bookings will come.
3
Your guest can send their booking request on your booking website
Guest can easily browse your photos and get to know your booking terms and house rules. GoDirect only allows booking according to the rules that you chose and of course the number of guests specified.
4
Guests will be emailed automatically about their booking status
Your guests will know whether their booking is pending or confirmed and what to do next thanks to our customizable emails. You can then decide whether you confirm or reject the booking.
5
Calendar sync updates your calendars with the newly booked nights
If you set up calendar sync, your calendars will automatically update after a few minutes (30 minutes tops). Of course it is a two-way sync so booked nights will appear in GoDirect regardless of where they were booked (Airbnb, Booking.com or Vrbo).
6
Use GoDirect for free for 14 days – and pay a 2% commission afterwards only when guests book on GoDirect and actually show up (or minimum 8€ or 17€ depending on your plan).
Online travel agencies charge 12-16% commission on bookings. We only charge 2% on bookings that came through GoDirect (or minimum 8€ or 17€ depending on your plan).
