Alternate rates are only available for clients who have integrated their properties with HomeAway, Red Awning or their Website. Contact RMS to set up alternate rates. Only the listing sites that your RMS is integrated with will be available. Alternate rates allow you to add amenities depending on the booking source of a reservation. The added amenities in alternate rates belong to the property management company to recoup extra fees that may incur when the booking source is one of the other listing sites. A Utility is available to add fees to all your rates without entering each fee manually. Please call RMS if you are interested in the Alternate Rates Utility.
Fees Shown
Once RMS has set up your listing sites select Fees Shown. Standard is the base rate that RMS uses. The commission and taxes is always calculated on the standard base rate.
Once you have selected a booking source other than Standard, add amenity fees to the weekly amount and the daily amounts for each season of the Unit rate.
After you have entered fees for each season in a booking source, choose the next booking source you would like to add fees to or go back to Standard. You will be prompted to update the fees shown before switching to the next booking source.
