Since BookingSync was created, we’ve always wanted to work hand-in-hand with our partners and clients, by bringing them efficient, flexibility & freedom solutions. As our programming interface is open, each one of our clients and partners can create their own complementary tools to answer their own needs.
2. The BookingSync Vision
INTRO
BookingSync is more than just a vacation rental software. At BookingSync, we
share the idea that together, we can help the vacation rental industry grow.
We created an open Application Programming Interface (API) for each of our
clients to be able to create its own complementary tools, adapted to its own
needs.
Owners, travelers, teams app, or vacation rentals stats app… You can collect the
data from our platform and use them to match your needs.
Thanks to a constant innovation and ever-daring challenges, our solution
becomes more complete each day.
3. What’s an API?
ABOUT BOOKINGSYNC
API is the acronym of Application Programming Interface. Wikipedia defines it as
a “set of subroutine definitions, protocols, and tools for building application
software.”
But what is it, in concrete terms?
This means an API makes developing your own BookingSync-connected program
easier. Several of our clients are already enjoying our API, helping them in their
daily vacation rental business!
We’ve listed here the reasons why we decided to create such an interface, and
how you can make the most of it too, for your activity.
4. What are the benefits of an API? How can it help
you?
ABOUT BOOKINGSYNC
An API helps along and increases data exchange between a company and its
clients or partners. 4 key-benefits can be pointed out:
● Data exchanges securing & controlling
● Usage optimisation & development
● Information exchange automation
● Specific features implementation
According to a study, 83% of French companies noticed an improvement of the
user experience after implementing an API! It also allows you to:
● Increase the digital services reach
● Benefit from third-party developers’ innovations
● Improve profits
5. How you used our API to build your own tools
OUR HAPPY CUSTOMERS & API USERS
Luckey Homes
“Thanks to BookingSync’s API (Application
Programming Interface), we can push
some of our features and processes
further.
An app is at the owners’ disposal, allowing
them to manage their properties on their
own: blocking the calendar, following their
revenue and exchanging with their
account manager by chat. It helped us
develop the 1st Host mobile app, offering
a great transparency over Airbnb,
Booking.com, HomeAway… bookings”
6. How you used our API to build your own tools
OUR HAPPY CUSTOMERS & API USERS
Rental Ninja
“As property managers, we first chose
BookingSync as it offered an API which we
could customise. Rental Ninja couldn’t
have been created without BookingSync’s
open interface, which helps us for
anything that happens, in real time:
notifications, cancellations, payments…
An API is very helpful when creating a
product. The BookingSync Team is always
available on Slack, ready to help and fix. It
could be scary for some developers to be
integrated in such an API but the team is
very nice. I encourage people to join their
API!”

OUR HAPPY CUSTOMERS & API USERS
BnbLord
“The API helps us manage our internal
logistics: tasks planning, cleaning, check-
ins, inventory, pictures & descriptions
sync…
We’ve also created our own pricing
algorithm.
The API also allowed us to extend the
BookingSync Owners App. We created
our own app and provided owners with
an access to a great number of
information: confirmed bookings,
blocked dates, pricing, invoices sent…
Our owners maintain control over their
properties.”
