Airbnb Smart Pricing vs Beyond Dynamic Pricing vs Wheelhouse Dynamic Pricing

• Smart Pricing changes nightly prices. It uses demand for your listing and the local area.

• Prices go out each day to your linked booking sites or rental software.

• Paid Pro listings send prices daily when updates are turned on.

• You set the lowest and highest prices. Discounts can make the guest’s price lower than your minimum.

• The API lists a base price and limits for the lowest and highest price.

• Set price limits for all dates, seasons or chosen dates.

• Growth has tools for seasonal trends and events with low demand. Their names are Seasonal Pacing and Low Demand Event Detection.

• The price rules account for seasons and events.

• Growth includes Availability Yielding for pricing. You can also change prices yourself with Dynamic Overrides.

• Prices use how full your calendar is. Occupancy Pacing can also change each listing’s prices based on how far ahead guests book.

• Early-bird and other discounts work with Smart Pricing. We could not confirm a custom automatic last-minute price rule.

• Growth has a last-minute discount tool called Dynamic Time Based Adjustments.

• Prices and minimum stays can change as dates get closer.

• Growth and the API list Gap Price Adjustments.

• Discounts and shorter minimum stays can let guests book gaps between stays.

• You can set minimum-stay rules. Which rules reach the booking site depends on the connection.

• Set rules for all dates, weekdays, months, events, gaps or chosen dates. You can also use time-based rules. Your connection controls which rules it can send.

• Your own nightly prices replace Smart Pricing on chosen dates. Smart Pricing can stay on for other dates.

• Growth has Dynamic Overrides and controls to change prices.

• Set unlimited fixed prices for key dates and view past versions.

• This is an Airbnb tool. We could not confirm separate updates to Vrbo or Booking.com.

• Beyond lists direct links to Airbnb and Vrbo. It also lists links to rental software.

• Check the list of direct links for Airbnb, Tripadvisor and other sites. Do not assume Vrbo or Booking.com can link directly.

• Guides cover Guesty, Guesty for Hosts, Hospitable, Lodgify and OwnerRez. Check what your link needs to work.

• Wheelhouse lists rental software it works with. The booking sites and limits depend on that link.

• Prices change each day. The time they are sent may depend on your link.

• Turn updates on to send prices each day.

• Smart Pricing uses hundreds of facts about listings and the local area. You cannot download these as a separate data product.

Details: Growth; Pro for advanced comp sets

• Growth includes past market data. Pro adds Advanced Competitive Sets and search data.

• View market reports and data on similar listings. Dynamic Sets is separate and costs $12.99/set/month.

Plan: Growth; Pro

• Growth offers reports you can download. Pro adds Owner Reporting.

• Pro shows 15 months of past results and data for 6 months ahead. Future prices cover 18 months. These are different measures.

Details: Beyond Pro trial or plan

• Personal access tokens need an active Beyond Pro trial or plan. They use the linked account’s permissions. Tokens stop working when Pro access ends.

• Wheelhouse lists Pro and revenue-management APIs. Ask what access your account gets.

• We could not confirm a firm listing limit. Performance is for large managers, but that is not a hard cap.

• Wheelhouse describes customers with 1–1000+ listings. We could not confirm a firm account limit.

• Open Calendar, then Price settings to turn it on. The guide does not list a separate plan price.

• The guide lists Growth at 1%, Pro at 1.25% and Performance at 2%. Negotiated contracts and Guidance can change the terms.

• Free previews do not send prices. Pro Flex and Pro Flat have the same features. Enterprise has custom terms.

• Default Pay on Book costs 1%. Optional Pay on Stay costs 1.49%. The fee applies to nightly prices and host fees, such as cleaning. Deposits and tax are usually excluded, with some payout exceptions. Ask if Pro can be combined with Pay on Stay.

• Flex costs 1% of booking income, excluding taxes and fees. The minimum is $2.99/listing/month. Flat costs $19.99/listing/month, or $16.99 each for 10–49 listings. Cancelled bookings get account credits under the policy.

• New accounts get setup credit. Contract customers have separate rules for who qualifies. Check terms for credits when bookings cancel or you leave. Without a contract, remove or turn off all listings to end service. You still owe fees already charged. The final Pay on Stay bill includes future stays booked earlier. Those fees are not refunded if the stays later cancel.

• The free preview needs no card. A paid downgrade starts when the billing period ends. Your first Flat charge covers only the part of the period you use, paid in advance. Flex is billed afterward.
