Assigning a listing to a payment processing account

You can process credit card transactions in Guesty by connecting one or more payment processor accounts, such as Guesty's internal processor, GuestyPay, or an external processor such as Stripe, Merchant Warrior, or Hyp.
Your listings need to be assigned to a payment processing account in order for payments to be processed.

Tip:

Once a listing is assigned to a payment processing account, your auto payment rules can be applied to reservations. 

 

One payment processing account 

If you have one account connected to Guesty, that payment processing account will be your default and all your listings will be automatically assigned to it. 

Once a listing is assigned to a payment processing account, credit cards used to pay for reservations for the assigned listing will be stored in that account.

 

Multiple payment processing accounts

If you have more than one account connected to Guesty, you need to choose the account that will handle payments for each listing. In this case, we recommend setting a default account and then following the instructions below to reassign specific listings to the non-default accounts.

Steps to change a payment processor account:

  1. Connect the new account
  2. Assign listings to the new account

 If a listing is reassigned to another payment processing account, and the same credit card is associated to an existing reservation, the card payment will still be processed in the original payment processing account. In order to make sure the payment is processed through the new payment processing account, you need to recollect the credit card details. To do this, you can send a guest invoice or manually re-add the payment method to the reservation.
