We're excited to announce our newest integration partner, Guest Check by Good to Book! Guest Check is guest intelligence software for Short Term Accommodation Providers.

Designed to identify problematic, disrespectful guests, causing disruption, destruction and harm to other guests and staff — GTB refers to them as Rogue Guests.

Their network of authorised accommodation providers share a common goal — provide excellent accommodation and guest services, free from Rogue Guests.

On the 26th of February, Expedia notified properties of changes to their Virtual Credit Cards and the way they account for their commissions moving forward. 

Expedia Virtual Cards (Expedia Collect) bookings are now sent with the full amount and the net amount (after commission) is recorded in the booking comments. Expedia's commission is then invoiced (just like Hotel Collect) at the end of the month. 

This email seem to be missed by a few hotels, which has meant they did not notify Expedia to keep VCC bookings as net, or update their settings in Resly. 

Please check your Expedia Collect bookings to make sure the commission is accounted for correctly. 

In most cases you will need to change the Expedia VCC agent to now calculate commission %. Go to Settings > General > Agents > Edit > Include the commission calculation > Save. 

If in doubt you can reach out to Expedia Partner Support and ask to be reverted back to the old VCC.
