Rate Checker (Price Comparison Widget) Overview

This article offers a brief overview of the Rate Checker add-on and how it works with your Cloudbeds Booking Engine.

Rate Checker Overview

The Rate Checker integrates with the Cloudbeds Booking Engine to help guests monitor rates across your distribution sites and compare them with your direct rates.

 The Rate Checker is included with all Cloudbeds Booking Engine packages except Legacy plans. Properties on active packages can enable it at no additional cost.

How it works

  • Only channels connected to your Cloudbeds account appear in the list.
  • The Rate Checker does not display Hotelbeds or Airbnb iCal rates due to how those booking sites work.

The Rate Checker:

  • Shows the Base Rate plus any Base Rate Adjustments set during channel setup. It also considers adjustments configured in the Cloudbeds channel manager and Cloudbeds PMS.
  • Does not include fees, taxes, additional guest pricing, or channel-specific discounts.
  • Displays the price for the number of adults included in the rate; additional guest pricing is not included.

Example

A Double Room accommodates up to 3 adults:

  • Price for 2 adults: ฿1,000
  • Price for additional guest: ฿300

Rate Checker will show ฿1,000 (for 2 adults), not ฿1,300.
