Smart Pricing
When you turn on Smart Pricing, your nightly prices automatically adjust based on demand. This is a helpful tool if you want to optimize pricing without constantly monitoring it. You’re still the boss, though—so you can set minimum and maximum price limits and customize specific nightly prices in your calendar at any time.
