Get The Most Value From Your Calendar With Last Minute Rates

Occupancy goes up and down. Last-Minute Rates let you adjust prices for the next X days in seconds.

Raise prices when you’re almost full, drop them to fill gaps, all with one quick rule.

Heads up! These last-minute rates will only apply to the Mangobeds booking forms, not the Channel Manager app and channels

How to Manage Last-Minute Rates

  1. Open Property → Promotions → Last-Minute Rates
  2. Click “New” (or edit an existing rate ).
  3. Pick your window
    • Days Ahead = how far from today the rule applies.
  4. Set the percentage
    • Positive to raise prices (20 %), negative to discount (-30 %).
  5. Save and the change is live right away.

Pro tips

  • Stacking order: Base price → Seasonal → Last-Minute (always applied last).
  • Multiple rules? The highest % wins for each day.
  • Fill gaps fast: See an unexpected vacancy next weeks? A quick -15 % for the next two weeks often does the trick.
  • High-demand moments: At 80 % occupancy, set a +40 % rate for the final room and capture extra revenue.

Conclusion

Last-Minute Rates help you close gaps, respond to demand, and make the most of every night. Give them a try today and watch how quickly your calendar evens out.
