Channel collect is a payment collection method where the booking channel handles the payment and sends the host payout usually on a monthly basis via bank transfer. With this payment collection method, credit card details are not received by or stored in Guesty — they are stored according to the system of the relevant booking channel.
Important:
If you are using the channel collect payment collection method for the booking channels below, we do not recommend sending guest invoices from Guesty to collect credit card information, as the payments are directly processed by the channel itself.
