How to set up Multiple Occupancy Rates (OBP)

Dina · May 26 2026

A. What is OBP?

Occupancy Based Pricing (OBP) is a pricing mode that automatically adjusts room rate based on the number of guests.

If you need to set additional charges based on the number of guests (e.g., charge extra when guests exceed the base occupancy).You can set up OBP here.

Once set up OBP in PMS, then all channels must also be managed and set up in PMS. Currently Airbnb, Tujia, and Hostelworld usually do not support this feature in PMS.

B. How to set up Occupancy Based Rates (OBP)

Note:
The price that you set up in Setting---rate plan page is just initial base price which the system automatically generates (typically covering up to 2 years).This is not the latest rate synced to channels or OTAs.To update any prices, please adjust them in Rate Grid first

Note :

For OBP pricing is applied on top of the latest price set in : Calendar →Rate&Availability→ Rate Grid.

To update OTA prices, please also adjust them in Rate Grid first

C. How OBP Pricing Works

The system calculates the final price using the following logic:

Final Price = Base Price + Extra Guest Charges

  • Extra Guest Charges: Configured in OBP settings
