Step 7: Payments

Payment methods

Payment methods refer to the types of payments available for the guests at the property to pay for the provided services. At least one payment method is required to successfully set up this stage. Nonetheless, it is possible to specify as many payment methods as required, so that the guests are given freedom to choose.

Note that selection of the payment methods does not cause Rentals United to automatically charge your guests.

If we are provided with the card types by PMS on HomeAway 4.2.1, then we will set the payment methods to card and received cards will be displayed in Rentals United.

 

 

Cancellation Policy

Cancellation Policy (CP) describes the charges applied if a reservation is cancelled within a specific period of time.

There are a few Cancellation Policies available to choose in HomeAway 4.2.1. All of them are listed below. However, only one Cancellation Policy can by synchronized from PMS.
