Overview - Setting Up Direct Bookings From Start To Finish

Wondering how fast you can set up your own direct booking website, including taking credit card payments, from scratch?

In roughly 7 minutes, this video will take you from a brand new empty account through adding your property, rates, calendar, credit card payment method and setting up a website that can take live bookings.  This shows a quick run-through of the main things you need to get from nothing to a full website with guest bookings.  Each of the areas this video goes through has many options and features, which you can learn about in other support articles and videos, but this video doesn't get bogged down in that.  We stay at a high level and show the full end to end process.
