Why can't I turn on Price Sync for some listings?

Some Airbnb listings use a pricing setup that Adapt can't sync rates to. Here's why, and what determines it.

Adapt can automatically push your nightly rates to Airbnb, but only for listings that Airbnb prices on a per-night basis. If one of your listings uses a different Airbnb pricing setup, Price Sync won't be available for it, even though you'll still see Adapt's recommended rates.

How Airbnb prices listings

Airbnb offers a few different pricing models, and the one your listing uses decides whether Adapt can sync rates to it:

  • Standard (per-night) pricing — you set a price for each individual night. Adapt can sync rates to these listings.

  • Length-of-Stay (LOS) pricing — your price is based on how many nights a guest books rather than on each individual night. Because there's no single per-night price to update, Adapt can't push rates to these listings.

  • Rate Plans — a newer Airbnb pricing option (currently in beta on Airbnb's side). Adapt doesn't support syncing to Rate Plans yet.

Why Adapt can only sync per-night pricing

Adapt works by calculating a recommended rate for each night and updating that night's price on your calendar. Length-of-Stay pricing and Rate Plans don't work off a single per-night price, so there's nothing for Adapt to update — which is why Price Sync isn't available for those listings. You'll still see Adapt's recommended rates; you just won't be able to turn on automatic syncing.

What you can do

Which pricing model a listing uses is set on Airbnb, not in Adapt. If you'd like to use Price Sync on a listing that's currently on Length-of-Stay pricing or a Rate Plan, reach out to our support team and we'll help you figure out your options.
