Choose a channel manager for your booking sites — Smoobu vs Tokeet Channel Manager vs Zeevou

List your booking sites and the jobs each link must do. Rates, open dates, bookings and cancellations can follow different rules. Check those rules before adding a tool. Check whether the offer is a full suite, extra channel links or managed help.

Smoobu: what to consider

Check each channel; the links do not all work the same way. Airbnb and Booking.com use direct links. Vrbo uses calendar links. Check website-booking terms, since the published fee details conflict. Read the Smoobu profile for its plans and requirements.

Tokeet Channel Manager: what to consider

Check the exact package and any paid apps it needs. Signup links lead to AdvanceCM, which is part of this offer rather than a second product here. Booking changes still depend on the channel connection. Read the Tokeet Channel Manager profile for its plans and requirements.

Zeevou: what to consider

The paid Channel Manager is separate from free Core calendar links. Check rooms, units, modules and channel setup. OpenAPI guides do not prove that every plan lets you build custom software links. Read the Zeevou profile for its plans and requirements.

Explore all booking-site management tools, what booking-site connections can cover, booking-site services and channel managers to continue your shortlist.

Common questions

Where should I edit listings when using Smoobu, Tokeet Channel Manager and Zeevou?

Decide which system controls rates, open dates and listing text. Check the sync mode before editing both sides. One system may own prices while another owns photos. Write down where your team should make each change.

What should I check after connecting one of these tools?

Match each home to the right listing. Check future bookings and manual blocks, then look at dates and prices on each booking site. Go far enough to inspect the offer, but do not complete a test booking unless you intend to buy it.

Can an Airbnb co-host connect the listing to Smoobu?

No. Smoobu’s guide says the account that owns the listing must allow the link. A co-host account cannot do that. The listing must also be set to Listed, not snoozed or unlisted. Then match each Airbnb listing to the right Smoobu property.

How can I check what Tokeet sent to a booking channel?

Its activity logs show price changes and update times. They also show the prices and open dates sent to channels. Use them to trace a change. Then check the offer guests see on the booking site. A sent update does not prove the final price shown.

What should I check if a Zeevou listing fails to connect to Vrbo?

One cause can be missing or invalid listing content. Zeevou says Check notifications shows what needs fixing. Photos may be too large, or text too short. Fix the listed issues before the next sync attempt. Do not assume every failed link has the same cause.
