🏷️ How to Set Up and Use LOS Pricing in Hostify
LOS (Length of Stay) pricing allows you to apply discounts or premiums to bookings depending on the guest’s stay length. This gives you more control over short vs. long stays, helping you maximize revenue.
🔧 Step 1: Enable LOS Pricing
Go to Listings → Settings → Pricing Tab.
Under Pricing Model, switch from Standard to LOS.
📅 Step 2: LOS in the Multi-Calendar
Once LOS pricing is enabled, you’ll see a new option LOS Pricing in the Update Calendar dialog of the Multi-Calendar.
✍️ Step 3: Create LOS Rules
You can define rules that adjust prices depending on the number of nights booked.
👉 Discount Example
LOS ≥ 7 nights → -20%
This means bookings of 7 nights or more automatically get a 20% discount.
👉 Premium + Discount Example
LOS ≥ 1 → +20% LOS ≥ 3 → 0% LOS ≥ 7 → -20%
Bookings under 3 nights cost 20% more.
Bookings of 3–6 nights use the standard nightly rate.
Bookings of 7+ nights get a 20% discount.
💡 Tip: You can combine multiple rules to fit your pricing strategy.
👀 Step 4: See LOS Rules in the Multi-Calendar
When you hover over dates in the Multi-Calendar, the active LOS rules will be displayed.
🔗 Step 5: Sending LOS Pricing to Channels
Airbnb
Hostify automatically switches your Airbnb listing to LOS pricing model.
A full pricing update is sent immediately.
Booking.com
Properties need to be converted from Standard → LOS before syncing.
Our Support Team can assist with this.
Once converted, LOS pricing updates will sync to Booking.com.
(This will be automated in the future.)
🖥️ Step 6: Manage LOS via API
LOS pricing can also be managed programmatically.
Each day supports an extra los object with an array of rules.
Example:
{ "date": "2025-09-01", "price": 10000, "los": [ { "min_nights": 1, "adjustment": 20 }, { "min_nights": 3, "adjustment": 0 }, { "min_nights": 7, "adjustment": -20 } ] }✅ That’s it! You can now set up LOS pricing to attract longer bookings and optimize revenue for shorter stays.
