November 2024: 365Villas Vacation Rental Software Developments

Nov 26, 2024 | 365Villas News

This month, we’re excited to share some important updates and exclusive offers that you won’t want to miss. From powerful new features to limited-time promotions, and even exciting news about an industry recognition, there’s something for everyone!

Smarter and More Secure Property Management System (PMS)

Stronger Passwords, Enhanced Security

We’ve improved password requirements to better protect your account.

  • Choose a longer password with a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.
  • Avoid personal details or common words.

We also recommend enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) on your Special Preferences page for an extra layer of security.

Channel Fees for Agency Commissions

Managing commissions has never been easier! Now you can apply channel fees to direct reservations and automatically calculate agency commissions. Plus, generate detailed reports to keep your finances organized.

This feature is especially useful for tour operators or resellers. Here’s how it works:

  • Create a lead source for each agency you work with.
  • Plus, you can generate detailed reports on commissions for each agency using the dynamic report builder, helping you save time and stay organized.
  • Save their default commission rate as a channel fee.
  • 365Villas will automatically calculate and deduct these commissions from owner payouts for every booking. 

Channel Manager Enhancements

Custom Vrbo Property Titles

Stand out on Vrbo with optimized, longer property titles tailored to their platform requirements. Update these directly from the Property Profile Page.

Save time by searching for properties at the account level rather than navigating through individual Airbnb accounts.

Improved Server Performance and Security

This update might not seem immediately noticeable, but it’s a crucial enhancement to your experience with 365Villas. We’ve upgraded to a new PHP version, bringing:

  • Faster system speed for smoother operations.
  • Enhanced security to protect your data.
  • Improved compatibility with the latest software standards.

These essential improvements ensure a more reliable and efficient platform, helping you work with confidence and ease.

What’s Next? A Sneak Peek at Upcoming Features

We’re working on exciting new tools to simplify your workflow:

  • Automated Owner Reports: Send Owner Statements and Trust Accounting reports automatically.
  • Airbnb Resolution Center Integration: Manage messages and reconciliations directly within 365Villas.

Stay tuned—great things are on the way!
