How to Use the Booking Module on Your Own Website

If you already have a website, you can integrate the Holidu Booking Module to offer secure transactions and a smooth booking flow for you and your guests. Visitors can book directly while availability, pricing, and bookings stay aligned with your Holidu account.

What is the Booking Module?

The Booking Module is a powerful integration tool that allows you to embed a fully functional booking system directly into your existing website. This solution enables your guests to make reservations securely without leaving your site, while maintaining complete synchronization with your Holidu calendar, pricing, and booking management system. It provides a seamless experience for both hosts and guests by keeping all bookings, availability, and pricing data in sync across all channels.

How to Integrate the Booking Module

Step 1: Go to Your Direct Booking Website Settings

Log in to your Holidu app, navigate to "Direct Bookings" in the left-hand menu, and then click on "My Website and Widget". Once you're in, go to "Settings" and click on "Booking Module".

Step 4: Select Your Preferred Languages

Choose the languages that match your website to give visitors a consistent experience. This ensures that guests see the booking interface in their preferred language, improving usability and conversion rates.

Step 5: Click Save

Your Booking Module is now active on your Direct Booking Website. Guests can book directly while availability, pricing, and bookings stay aligned with your Holidu calendar.
