Benefits of letting property through Abooking
Abooking is a complete online booking system,
tailor-made both for holiday home/cabin owners who wish to let their property
and for professional agents. Abooking offers direct booking over the Internet
between owner and hirer. No middleman to increase costs.
Registration is free, and you administer your holiday
home yourself. In other words, you can alter the text, images and prices and
reserve or release weeks as you wish. You can check and monitor bookings on your
home online 24 hours a day. With Abooking you can let out your property to the
extent you wish, whether for one week or the whole year. You are also free to
reserve for your own use and private guests.
Once you have registered your holiday home, it can be
booked over the Internet by customers from all over the world, at any time of
the day or night. Everything is done electronically, and you are automatically
sent an e-mail when a customer books your holiday home. Here you can get a full
view of the hire charge, the name of the hirer and the number of persons.
Hirers are sent a confirmation in their own language.
Abooking’s rules require the hirer to pay a 20%
deposit within five days. The sum is paid directly to your account. The
remainder is paid 45 days before the start of hire, or on arrival – you decide.
Abooking uses electronic monitoring to check the payment of the deposit
directly to your account. If the hirer cancels later than 45 days before
arrival, any outstanding rental must be paid directly to your account.
Abooking’s website is currently translated into
Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, German and English. We continuously monitor whether
to expand this to French, Portuguese, Italian and Croatian. To allow you to
present your holiday home in the languages of your choice, Abooking has a
contract with a professional translation agency which will translate the text
for you with payment by you directly to the agency.
Abooking has
negotiated a favourable price.
Abooking does its utmost to market your holiday home
in the best possible way, and markets itself in the following ways:
-
On search engines
-
On advertising websites at home and abroad
-
Through partners
-
Through agents
-
In newspaper advertisements
-
By participation at trade fairs
For use of our system and marketing you pay only a 15%
booking fee out of the hire charge. This is automatically invoiced when you as
owner receive the deposit from the hirer.
Abooking is the right choice for all private persons
letting out cabins, cottages and holiday villas and also for professional
letting services without their own online booking system. Professional holiday
home letting services can register as an Abooking
agent.
Read Abooking’s complete terms and conditions, which
are automatically sent when you register your holiday home and which must be
approved before the property can be activated.
