Prepare yourself and your properties for peaks in demand in 2021
We know that travel is likely to recover gradually and at varying rates, reflecting how and when governments are able to accelerate vaccine distribution and relax lockdown rules and social distancing measures. Despite the unpredictability of the current situation, we are still seeing signs of encouraging demand for travel.
We’re working to provide you continuous support in the months ahead, by offering a variety of new resources, solutions and product updates. These will help you:
Plan and prioritise

Introducing the all-new Messaging API
The Messaging API enables you to integrate Booking.com guest communications with your inbox product on any platform. We’ve improved and strengthened the Messaging API using your feedback from the earlier version, so it’s now more robust and easy to integrate. You can get started quickly with clear and helpful documentation.
Reservation Outage Toolkit
We’ve created the Reservation Outage Toolkit to help you resolve system outages quickly and reduce reservation failures. Each of these time-saving tools is designed to work in conjunction with the Reservations API to provide you with the intelligence and actionable advice you need to fix problems when they happen - and improve your performance over time. You can sign up for alerts and digests today by updating your emergency contacts.
