Pro Tips

Rate Parity
Booking.com has strict rate parity requirements. Ensure your rates on Booking.com are competitive with or lower than your direct booking rates.
Genius Program
If your property is part of the Booking.com Genius program, discounts are applied at the Booking.com level. Your base rates in Boom should be your standard rates.
