Once you have your affiliation approval granted by the Homes & Villas by Marriott International team, you must configure the following settings on your Stays.net:
Step | Summary | Details | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Activate Homes & Villas in your Stays center app | As it is a channel where affiliation depends on prior approval, if you have been approved, go to [App Center > Channels > Homes & Villas], activate the connection and save the changes made! |  |
| 2 | Activate your Homes & Villas account on Stays.net | After being approved by the Homes & Villas team to become an affiliate, you will receive a credential named [HMC ID] which must be applied in the [Manage Accounts] tab of your Stays channel manager. Enter the information and click on the green button of the screen. This process is required so that you can start the integration of your listings between Stays and the channel! |  |
| 3 | Configure your Homes & Villas channel | In the [Channel Managers Dashboard > Homes & Villas > Settings] tab to adjust connection details, such as the relation of cancellation policies, fees and price correction, based on the instructions you received from the Homes & Villas team about the channel policies. |  |
| 4 | Select the listings for connection | In the [Channel Managers Dashboard > Homes & Villas > Listings], either by creating new listings to the channel or by linking your Stays listings to any listings of yours there previously. About the creation of listings, only create those that have been previously approved by the Homes & Villas team! |  |
