HOW TO MANAGE BOOKINGS & PAYMENTS

On Expedia Partner Central, your bookings will be referred to as Hotel Collect because you
collect payment directly from the guest.
Managing your bookings and payments on Expedia Partner Central involves three easy steps:
1 You’ll receive a booking notification for your ‘Hotel Collect’ bookings
2 Confirm your booking in the Reservation Management tool
3 Follow the ‘Hotel Collect’ payment and invoice process
Step 1: Booking Notifications
You will receive a booking notification for each booking made on Venere®, Expedia®, Hotels.com® or
the Expedia Affiliate Network:

the Reservation Management tool to confirm your bookings; click “To Confirm“ on the Expedia Partner
Central Home page to begin.

Step 3: Upon check out:
•
For your Hotel Collect bookings, you will need to collect full payment from the customer. If there have
been any changes to the length of stay or a cancellation or no-show, you may request a reconciliation
through the Reconcilable Reservations page - Please adhere to the reconciliation window listed in Expedia
Partner Central for your hotel. Then you will send Expedia/Venere compensation using your chosen
method of payment, upon receipt of invoice within the Invoices and Credits page shown below. Both of
these pages are found within the Accounting menu.
This is the total amount to
send to Expedia/Venere,
due upon receipt of invoice
If your payment method
is credit card, here you
will see a “Pay Now”
option to process your
payment
