Connecting your HomeToGo account and listings to Guesty

You can publish and manage your Guesty listings on HomeToGo directly through Guesty. Once connected, your listings sync automatically across platforms. Your inventory is automatically distributed across HometoGo’s network of brands. If you want to exclude specific brands, contact HomeToGo’s team during onboarding to block those brands.

Upon integration, HomeToGo will receive your company name and mailing address as recorded in Guesty.

HomeToGo charges a 15% commission based on the gross travel price (i.e., base rent + applicable fees and bookable extras), excluding taxes. You must manually set the commission formula in Guesty, either at the account or listing level. 

Follow the steps below to connect your account and listings to Guesty.

After completing the integration:

• Confirm that all listings are “Live on channel” on channel and correctly connected. Learn more about the connection statuses and basic troubleshooting here. 
• Verify that the commission is applied correctly. If needed, check HomeToGo’s commission structure by reviewing their terms of service. If the commission isn’t automatically applied, manually calculate it based on your booking values. If the issue persists, contact us or HomeToGo support for assistance. 
• Regularly monitor connection statuses to ensure no listings fail to sync. 

Additionally, learn where to manage your HomeToGo listings, reservations, and guest communication.
