Our system allow for automated availability and pricing information for accommodations.
For hotels and larger properties, this is normally done via a channel manager. If you are interested in integrating a hotel, please contact us for further information.
For villas and smaller properties, rates can be imported using the Tarifa XML rate sheet standard.
Tarifa rate sheets support a variety of pricing configurations, and the ability to feature discounts and specials.
Please note that overuse of specials may result in specials not being shown for your property.
This file must adhere strictly to the standard. Here’s a sample file.

Key points about a Tarifa XML rate sheet:
- Only RateNight or RateWeek is required. If both are present, RateNight is used and the weekly rate is ignored.
- If you have a special, use the IsSpecial option and include the RateNightOriginal or RateWeekOriginal so the savings can be calculated and displayed.
- Currency code must be USD or not included. Foreign currencies are not currently accepted.
- Tax information, such as Government Accommodation Tax or Service Charge, is set up as part of adding and managing your accommodation listing.
Rates are updated every 8-16 hours.
