Synchronization triggers and delay
| What? | Triggers | Delay |
| Calendar | A booking is created/updated/cancelled in your BokingSync calendar | The calendar is updated immediately. When a traveller books, a live quote is provided so availability and rates are checked. |
| Bookings | A new booking is recorded on Homeaway | Created on BookingSync before the traveller confirms so NO risk of double booking |
| Rate, property info, photos, reviews, fees and taxes | No trigger | Homeaway reads the data every 24 hours but if a traveller books, a live quote is provided so the rates, fees and taxes are always accurate. The rental agreement is displayed during the payment process and directly comes from BookingSync. |
