Owner Dashboard

Owner can see see the bookings he receives in User Dashboard -> Bookings

Owner’s Actions

From the My Bookings page, the owner can choose to:

  • Reject the Booking: If the owner decides not to accept the booking, they can reject it. The booking will be deleted from both the owner’s and the user’s dashboards.
  • Issue the Invoice & Approve the Booking: If the owner approves the booking, they will issue an invoice to the user. If a deposit is set by Site Admin, the payment of the invoice deposit will need to be paid for booking to be confirmed and block calendar.

After sending the invoice, owner can either:

  • Delete the invoice and issue a new one, before renter confirms booking
  • Reject the booking request, which will remove it from both the owner’s and the user’s dashboard.

Security Deposit

The property owner can set the security deposit amount in the property settings. To do this, navigate to:

  • My Properties > Edit or Add Property > Price > Security Deposit

When a booking request is sent, the security deposit fee is added to the total booking amount. The renter will see this fee as part of their total payment.

  • Important: The security deposit is collected by the admin account and is not paid directly to the owner.
  • The refund of the security deposit is manual and must be processed by the site admin if the renter does not cause damage. There is no automated refund process in the theme.

EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT

Each owner can enable EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT for each property by selecting the value of discount and the number of days in advance.
