Ping integrates with your Airbnb calendar and uses it as the one source of truth. If your short-term-rental is listed on other sites (such as Booking.com and VRBO) Ping will still work as long as the calendars on these sites are synced with your Airbnb calendar.
The smart waitlist for the world's top-rated Airbnbs...

“Seconds after the cancellation, my place was rebooked.”

Why Ping?
You’re a kick ass Airbnb host.
In fact you’ve done such a great job at marketing your STR that you’re pretty much entirely booked for the next 6-12 months.
But every so often there’s a cancellation…
or just one, random, 3-night window of availability in the middle-of-the-week (that you’d love to be booked).
Now posting about new availability on your Insta story is a great start...
but what if you could automatically notify interested guests the second a cancellation comes through?
And that’s where Ping comes in.
Ping is a simple widget that lives on your website (or direct booking site).
Ping allows your fans and followers to sign up to be notified if their preferred dates become available.
Here’s how it works:
Jimmy sees that you’re booked the whole month of October.
but he wants to be notified if any 3-night window in the month becomes available.
Jen is a returning guest and wants to be notified if any week in June, July, or August becomes available.
In a matter of seconds, Jimmy and Jen fill out the Ping form and will be notified if their requested dates become available.
And as a host, you will immediately get pinged (ha!) with Jimmy and Jen’s contact information and requested dates.
This enables you to build up your own database of guest email addresses...and...heck...maybe even say, "Adios!" to Airbnb one day.
Last-minute cancellations suck. And that's why the best Airbnb hosts love Ping!
