Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com connections by plan
A direct API connection syncs bookings (and often rates and messages) in near real time, while iCal syncs availability only and can lag, which raises double-booking risk. We show the documented connection type for every plan and channel, checked 17 Oct 2026.
