Real-time surge protection that helps you earn more from sudden increases in demand

One of the saddest ways a hotel loses money is when a big event gets announced, and before you know what is happening, you sell your rooms at a fraction of the price you could have charged. At RoomPriceGenie, we are determined that this should never happen again to hotels.

So, we created a protection model that triggers immediately after a surge of bookings and gives you time to react to the situation. Never again will you sell your rooms too cheap.

How real-time surge protection helps hotels & rentals

The famous Taylor Swift World Tour brought this issue to everyone’s attention but hoteliers near event venues have faced this challenge for years. Traditional systems react too slowly. With RoomPriceGenie’s real-time surge protection, you’re covered the moment demand jumps. No delays, no missed revenue opportunities.

RoomPriceGenie’s real-time surge protection reacts quicker than any human ever could, ensuring your room rates stay competitive and profitable. By adjusting your pricing the moment a surge is detected, you can avoid selling your rooms too cheap and remain in control of your pricing.

How does the Surge Protection feature work?

The Surge Protection feature monitors your property’s reservation data to identify when there is a significant increase in bookings for any given day, immediately adjusting the price and alerting you about the increased demand in your destination. The Surge Protection functionality triggers RoomPriceGenie to send you an e-mail alerting you of the surge in demand, with a link that will take you directly to the surge alert in the RoomPriceGenie system, where you can adjust your pricing accordingly. Notifications allow you to change your pricing accordingly to boost revenue, and with real-time automation adjusting your prices, you avoid leaving money on the table.

I trust that RoomPriceGenie is doing its thing, even when I am not watching, which is comforting.
