Accounting Configuration, Airbnb New Listing Promotion, Expanded Amenities Across Channels, New Automated Messages — Owner Contract Renewal
The first month of 2026 has arrived with a firm resolution from GuestWisely: to stay in a state of continuous evolution that powers your growth. We are kicking off this year with new innovations that sharpen your competitive edge for the year ahead.
January marks the first step, introducing enhancements built to unlock momentum across your operations.
Country-Specific Accounting Configuration
As property managers scale, financial clarity becomes non-negotiable. Our new Accounting Configuration setting allows you to define the starting month of your reporting period. All financial reports will follow your selected accounting cycle, ensuring alignment with the country-specific fiscal year to stay compliant rather than following the standard calendar (e.g., the fiscal year in the United Kingdom typically starts in April).
Why it matters:
- Ultimate Flexibility: Match your accounting period perfectly to your operational year.
- List item text
- Regulatory Alignment: Ensure compliance of accounting reports with regional fiscal requirements.
Airbnb New Listing Promotion
Launching a new listing is all about gaining early traction. That’s why the Airbnb New Listing Promotion steps in as a significant booster for your booking momentum. This built-in incentive automatically applies a 20% discount to the first three bookings on Airbnb. Through our direct integration, you can activate this powerful growth lever directly on GuestWisely with no additional configuration required.
What to keep in mind:
- The discount value and duration are fully controlled by Airbnb.
- Hosts cannot modify the percentage or extend the promotion.
- This promotion overrides other discounts and includes a dedicated listing badge.
What this means for you:
- Enhanced Visibility: Surge to the top of Airbnb search results immediately.
- Maximized Occupancy: Convert potential guests with greater value propositions.
- Accelerated Credibility: Facilitate early reviews to build long-term trust.
Expanded Amenities Across Channels
As the industry accelerates and guest expectations rise, accurate listing details are key to capturing first impressions. GuestWisely has expanded the list of amenities that can be mapped across all channels, ensuring your properties shine with their best features prominently displayed.
How this drives growth:
- Professional Consistency: Deliver a unified experience across every OTA.
- Search Optimization: Stay visible within guest search filters and preferences.
- Higher Conversion: Provide comprehensive information to fuel booking momentum.
New Automated Messages — Owner Contract Renewal
Strong manager-owner relationships are built on trust and clarity. Communication is, therefore, a key factor to sustain long-term partnerships. With Automated Messages for Owner Contract Renewal, GuestWisely helps you to stay proactive by sending reminders when contracts are approaching renewal or expiration.
Available setup options:
- Owner notification: Automatically notify owners X days before contract renewal or expiration.
- Manager notification: Automatically notify yourself X days before contract renewal or expiration.
- Dual notification: Enable both reminders to align with your workflow.
*You can also choose to keep sending reminders until the contract is renewed, ensuring that no critical renewal is overlooked.
What to expect:
- Renewal Foresight: Stay ahead of contract renewals to ensure continuous partnership and revenue stability.
- Workflow Optimization: Reduce manual follow-ups while delivering timely communication.
- Partner Retention: Keep owner relationships running smoothly through professional touchpoints.
